in Tn syndrome (autoimmune disease with blood cells carrying an incompletely glycosylated membrane glycoprotein) (OMIM: 300622)
constitutional        
truncated protein in human colorectal cell line and in Jurkat cells
constitutional somatic mutation      
abolishing function of a glycosyltransferase, disrupting O-glycan core 1 synthesis and creating a tumor-specific glycopeptidic neoepitope consisting of a monosaccharide and a specific wildtype protein sequence

in pediatric IgA nephropathy (IGAN), hypermethylation of C1GALT1C1 promoter region could be a key mechanism for the reduction of Cosmc mRNA expression in IgAN lymphocytes with associated increase in aberrantly glycosylated IgA1
Susceptibility
  • to IgA nephropathy
  • to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
  • Variant & Polymorphism
  • polymorphism of C1GALT1C1 gene is associated with the genetic susceptibility to IgA nephropathy
  • is an IBD risk factor implicated in regulating the spatial pattern of dysbiosis and sex bias in IBD
  • Candidate gene
  • expression of the disease-related Tn antigen can result from deregulation or loss of C1GALT1C1 function
  • Marker
    Therapy target
