LARGE1 and muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy, type A: Uniquely, transient overexpression of LARGE has been shown to increase glycosylation of αDG as evaluated by increased immunoreactivity to antibodies IIH6 and VIA4–1 both of which are known to recognize carbohydrate moieties and leads to a recovery of receptor function in cells derived from patients diagnosed as Fukuyama CMD (FCMD), muscle-eye-brain disease (MEB) and Walker–Warburg syndrome (WWS) [17].
