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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 15, 2018The P69A variant has been reported in both the homozygous and compound heterozygous state in multiple unrelated patients with Lafora disease (LD) and is considered to be a common pathogenic variant (Chan et al., 2003; Gomez-Abad et al., 2005; Jansen and Andermann, 2015). The P69A variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. The P69A variant alters a highly conserved position in the RING domain of the malin protein, and functional studies indicate that it interferes with the protein's ability to interact with other proteins in the glycogen synthesis pathway (Gentry et al., 2005; Solaz-Fuster et al., 2008; Couarch et al., 2011). Therefore, P69A is a considered a pathogenic variant. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsJan 22, 2020The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity. Found in at least one patient with expected phenotype for this gene. Predicted to have a damaging effect on the protein. Located in potentially critical domain of the protein. In multiple individuals, this variant has been seen with a single recessive pathogenic variant in the same gene, suggesting this variant may also be pathogenic. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 03, 2023This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 69 of the NHLRC1 protein (p.Pro69Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs28940576, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Lafora disease (PMID: 12958597, 16529633, 18256682, 19744044, 21505799, 22815132). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2587). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt NHLRC1 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects NHLRC1 function (PMID: 15930137, 18029386, 21505799). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

NHLRC1-related condition Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesDec 20, 2023The NHLRC1 c.205C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro69Ala. This variant has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in multiple individuals with Lafora disease (Chan et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12958597; Franceschetti et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16529633; RomΓ‘-Mateo et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22815132). Functional studies showed this variant is detrimental and leads to intracellular glycogen accumulation (Gentry et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15930137; Couarch et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21505799). This variant is reported in 0.019% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
