A Missense Mutation in the UGDH Gene Is Associated With Developmental Delay and Axial Hypotonia
UDP-glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH) encodes an oxidoreductase that converts two successive oxidations of UDP-glucose to produce UDP-glucuronic acid, a key component in the synthesis of several polysaccharides such as glycosaminoglycan and the disaccharide hyaluronic acid. UGDH is critical to the produc...
