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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points.

• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, GNE
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.953
• PP5: Variant 9-36246261-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-36246261-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 189156.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr9-36246261-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

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. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189156). This variant is also known as p.Arg129Gln. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with GNE myopathy/distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (PMID: 15136692, 16372135, 22507750, 23127962, 24695763). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (rs748704459, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 160 of the GNE protein (p.Arg160Gln). -
