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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Knight Diagnostic Laboratories, Oregon Health and Sciences University	-	The c.1985C>T (p.Ala662Val) is a missense variant in the GNE gene where missense pathogenic variants have been reported. It is located in the kinase domain of the protein, and functional studies have shown that the kinase activity is dramatically reduced in cells carrying this variant (Nogushi et al. 2004). It is absent or not frequent in the control population databases (0% in 1000 genomes and Exome Sequencing Project, and 0.013% in ExAc), and in silico computational algorithms predicted this variant to be deleterious to protein function and exhibits a high CADD score (27.1). Finally, this variant has been described as pathogenic by ClinVar and the Emory Genetics Laboratory. Therefore, this collective evidence supports the classification of the c.1985C>T (p.Ala662Val) as a recessive pathogenic variant for inclusion body myopathy. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jan 30, 2024	This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 662 of the GNE protein (p.Ala662Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs62541771, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with GNE myopathy (PMID: 24796702). It is commonly reported in individuals of British and Chinese ancestry (PMID: 22196754, 24695763). This variant is also known as p.Ala631Val. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6035). 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) has been performed at Invitae 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 affects GNE function (PMID: 14707127, 15987957, 16503651). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
