Milestone
A glucose transporter disease was requested in #1359 and while attempting to determine where to classify it, I discovered the DO is missing a number of other glucose transporter diseases and that there is not currently a grouping term for carbohydrate/glucose transport diseases.
Please review glucose transport diseases (and possibly also the broader group of carbohydrate transport diseases) and determine which need to be added and what grouping term would be appropriate, if any.
Orphanet has the following classification related to carbohydrate transport:
With the glucose transport diseases:
None of these glucose transport diseases appear to be in DO based on ORDO or MIM xref.
It's a bit surprising that Orphanet's glucose transporter diseases don't include 'Paroxysmal exertion-induced dyskinesia'. This disease is equivalent to DO's 'childhood-onset GLUT1 deficiency syndrome 2' (DOID:0090045), which is caused by mutations in the same glucose transporter gene (GLUT1, now officially SLC2A1) as the disease requested in #1359. 'childhood-onset GLUT1 deficiency syndrome 2' (DOID:0090045) is currently only classified as a child of dystonia (DOID:543) and not as a descendant of 'inherited metabolic disorder' (DOID:655) as it should be. 'childhood-onset GLUT1 deficiency syndrome 2' and its classification is also mentioned in #1361.
