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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.20792992 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6.2, offset of 0 (no position change), new splice context is: ctaGTacgt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 9-36246029-AC-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-36246029-AC-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 553323.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr9-36246029-AC-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr9-36246029-AC-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
