Genes affected
NEU1 (HGNC:7758): (neuraminidase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal enzyme that cleaves terminal sialic acid residues from substrates such as glycoproteins and glycolipids. In the lysosome, this enzyme is part of a heterotrimeric complex together with beta-galactosidase and cathepsin A (the latter is also referred to as 'protective protein'). Mutations in this gene can lead to sialidosis, a lysosomal storage disease that can be type 1 (cherry red spot-myoclonus syndrome or normosomatic type), which is late-onset, or type 2 (the dysmorphic type), which occurs at an earlier age with increased severity.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 22, 2022This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 227 of the NEU1 protein (p.Gly227Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs769765227, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with sialidosis (PMID: 19568825, 24808020, 26141460). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 430342). 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 C15"). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects NEU1 function (PMID: 10767332). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Sialidosis type 2 Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingFoundation for Research in Genetics and Endocrinology, FRIGE's Institute of Human GeneticsSep 16, 2023A homozygous missense variant in exon 4 of the NEU1 gene that results in the amino acid substitution of Arginine for Glycine at codon 227 was detected. This variant has not been reported in 1000 genomes and has a MAF of 0.00132%, 0.00199% and 0.00113% in the gnomAD v3.1, gnomAD v2, and topmed databases respectively. This variant has previously been reported in patients affected with sialidosis and associated with significantly reduced enzymatic activity (PMID-10767332). The in-silico prediction is damaging by SIFT, LRT, MutationTaster2. In summary, the variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

Sialidosis Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 21, 2016Variant summary: The NEU1 c.679G>A variant affects a conserved nucleotide, resulting in amino acid change from Gly to Arg. 4/4 in-silico tools predict damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). Functional studies show that G227R has a sialidase activity of <10% of normal, and lacks normal processing and lysosomal targeting (Lukong_Hum. Mol. Genet._2000). This variant was found in 5/120902 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000414, which does not significantly exceed maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic NEU1 allele (0.001118). The variant has been identified in homozygous state in patients with Sialidosis type II and in compound heterozygous state in patients with progressive myoclonus epilepsies or late-onset action myoclonus. Taken together, this variant was classified as pathogenic. -
