IEMbase phenotype signal

IEMbase represents COG4-CDG as an autosomal recessive conserved oligomeric Golgi complex disorder with unknown treatability and no treatment rows. Biochemical rows include increased ASAT/ALAT, alkaline phosphatase, transaminases, asialotransferrin, monosialotransferrin, disialotransferrin, trisialotransferrin, apolipoprotein CIII hypoglycosylation, alpha-fetoprotein, ammonia, and LDL cholesterol, with decreased tetrasialotransferrin.

Clinical rows are sparse but include cerebral atrophy on MRI, developmental delay, and intellectual disability.

DisMech phenotype coverage

COG1-congenital_disorder_of_glycosylation.yaml is a neighboring COG-complex candidate, not exact COG4 coverage. COG1 and COG4 participate in the same complex but represent different gene-disease entities and should remain separate curation targets.

No exact COG4-CDG target was identified locally.

Concordance and completeness

Judgement: true local gap; reject COG1-CDG as exact coverage.

The IEMbase record is especially useful for biochemical curation because it captures both N-glycan/transferrin and apolipoprotein CIII/O-glycosylation signals plus hepatic/metabolic markers.

Curation actions

  • Create or identify an exact COG4-CDG target before import.
  • Reject COG1-congenital_disorder_of_glycosylation.yaml as an exact mapping.
  • Preserve transferrin, apolipoprotein CIII, liver-enzyme, AFP, ammonia, LDL, cerebral-atrophy, developmental-delay, and intellectual-disability prompts.
