Genes affected
GNE (HGNC:23657): (glucosamine (UDP-N-acetyl)-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase) The protein encoded by this gene is a bifunctional enzyme that initiates and regulates the biosynthesis of N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc), a precursor of sialic acids. It is a rate-limiting enzyme in the sialic acid biosynthetic pathway. Sialic acid modification of cell surface molecules is crucial for their function in many biologic processes, including cell adhesion and signal transduction. Differential sialylation of cell surface molecules is also implicated in the tumorigenicity and metastatic behavior of malignant cells. Mutations in this gene are associated with sialuria, autosomal recessive inclusion body myopathy, and Nonaka myopathy. Alternative splicing of this gene results in transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
CLTA (HGNC:2090): (clathrin light chain A) Clathrin is a large, soluble protein composed of heavy and light chains. It functions as the main structural component of the lattice-type cytoplasmic face of coated pits and vesicles which entrap specific macromolecules during receptor-mediated endocytosis. This gene encodes one of two clathrin light chain proteins which are believed to function as regulatory elements. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 8 and 12. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 251416 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.830G>A has been reported in the literature as a biallelic genotype in multiple individuals affected with Inclusion Body Myopathy 2 (e.g. Lv_2022). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35138478). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6030). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Sialuria;C1853926:GNE myopathy Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 14, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 277 of the GNE protein (p.Arg277Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908629, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive distal myopathy (PMID: 24695763, 29406958, 29480215). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.R246Q. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6030). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on GNE protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Arg277 amino acid residue in GNE. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15987957, 22507750, 26231298). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
