Exome sequence identified a c.320AÂ >Â G ALG13 variant in a female with infantile epileptic encephalopathy with normal glycosylation and random X inactivation: Review of the literature

Here, we report on another female patient who is heterozygous for the same ALG13 c.320A > G (p.Asn107Ser) variant. She presented with infantile spasms, epileptic encephalopathy, hypsarrhythmia, hypotonia, developmental delay, intellectual disability, abnormal coagulation profile, feeding problems, hypotonia, and dysmorphic features. The diagnosis of CGD was suspected clinically, but glycosylation studies were done twice and showed normal patterns on both occasions. Her X-inactivation study was also done and, surprisingly, showed a random pattern of X-inactivation, with no evidence of skewness.
