To date, only 13 patients have been diagnosed with <jats:italic>SSR4<\/jats:italic>-CDG in the worldwide, but it has not been reported in the Chinese population.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold> Whole-exome sequencing and gene copy number variation analysis were used to genetic analysis. The mRNA expression of <jats:italic>SSR4<\/jats:italic> gene in blood was detected by Real-time Quantitative PCR.

This variant has not been reported in previous studies. The <jats:italic>in vivo<\/jats:italic> mRNA expression of <jats:italic>SSR4<\/jats:italic> gene in patient was significantly decreased.
