Genes affected

EPM2A (HGNC:3413): (EPM2A glucan phosphatase, laforin) This gene encodes a dual-specificity phosphatase and may be involved in the regulation of glycogen metabolism. The protein acts on complex carbohydrates to prevent glycogen hyperphosphorylation, thus avoiding the formation of insoluble aggregates. Loss-of-function mutations in this gene have been associated with Lafora disease, a rare, adult-onset recessive neurodegenerative disease, which results in myoclonus epilepsy and usually results in death several years after the onset of symptoms. The disease is characterized by the accumulation of insoluble particles called Lafora bodies, which are derived from glycogen. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2018]

Multiple published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect, as W32G alters protein stability and phosphatase activity, damaging the intracellular glycogen complex and leading to mis-targeting of laforin (Ganesh et al., 2002; Wang et al., 2002; Wang et al., 2004; Srikumar et al., 2014; Meekins et al., 2015; Raththagala et al., 2015); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 14532330, 14706656, 18029386, 18040046, 25544560, 24770803, 15541350, 26231210, 10932264, 22669944, 34755096, 33084218, 34117373, 12019207, 28934672, 31227012, 11739371) -

This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 32 of the EPM2A protein (p.Trp32Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with EPM2A-related conditions (PMID: 10932264). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3107). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects EPM2A function (PMID: 11739371, 12019207, 14532330). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
