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]

Variant summary: GNE c.691A>T (p.Ile231Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase domain (IPR003331) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 251334 control chromosomes. c.691A>T has been reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in at least two individuals affected with Inclusion Body Myopathy (Eisenberg_2003, Chaouch_2014, Pogoryelova_2018). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and showed little to no damaging effect of this variant on UDP-GlcNAc 2-epimerase activity compared to the wild type protein (Penner_2006). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 12497639, 24695763, 29305133, 16503651). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558623). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 231 of the GNE protein (p.Ile231Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs369328625, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with inclusion body myopathy (PMID: 12497639, 24695763, 29305133). This variant is also known as Ile200Phe. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558623). Invitae Evidence 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 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect GNE function (PMID: 16503651). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
