Genes affected

NHLRC1 (HGNC:21576): (NHL repeat containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a single subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase. Laforin is polyubiquitinated by the encoded protein. Defects in this intronless gene lead to an accumulation of laforin and onset of Lafora disease, also known as progressive myoclonic epilepsy type 2 (EPM2).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.N227K variant (also known as c.681T>A), located in coding exon 1 of the NHLRC1 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 681. The asparagine at codon 227 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and lysine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
