Hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome, expanded phenotype of PIGL related disorders.

ABSTRACT: Hypomorphic mutations in six different genes involved in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) biogenesis pathway are linked to Mabry syndrome (hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome, HPMRS). This report on the third affected family with a HPMRS phenotype caused by mutations in PIGL, confirming the seventh GPI biogenesis gene linked to HPMRS. Two siblings presented with the main features of HPMRS; developmental delay, cognitive impairment, seizure disorder, skeletal deformities, and high alkaline phosphatase. We identified two heterozygous mutations in the PIGL gene (P.Trp20Ter and p.Arg88Cys). PIGL mutations have been linked to another distinctive neuroectodermal disorder: CHIME syndrome. The clinical picture of our patients expands the spectrum of PIGL-related phenotypes.

PGAP2 mutations, affecting the GPI-anchor-synthesis pathway, cause hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome.

Project description:Recently, mutations in genes involved in the biosynthesis of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor have been identified in a new subclass of congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDGs) with a distinct spectrum of clinical features. To date, mutations have been identified in six genes (PIGA, PIGL, PIGM, PIGN, PIGO, and PIGV) encoding proteins in the GPI-anchor-synthesis pathway in individuals with severe neurological features, including seizures, muscular hypotonia, and intellectual disability. We developed a diagnostic gene panel for targeting all known genes encoding proteins in the GPI-anchor-synthesis pathway to screen individuals matching these features, and we detected three missense mutations in PGAP2, c.46C>T, c.380T>C, and c.479C>T, in two unrelated individuals with hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome (HPMRS). The mutations cosegregated in the investigated families. PGAP2 is involved in fatty-acid GPI-anchor remodeling, which occurs in the Golgi apparatus and is required for stable association between GPI-anchored proteins and the cell-surface membrane rafts. Transfection of the altered protein constructs, p.Arg16Trp (NP_001243169.1), p.Leu127Ser, and p.Thr160Ile, into PGAP2-null cells showed only partial restoration of GPI-anchored marker proteins, CD55 and CD59, on the cell surface. In this work, we show that an impairment of GPI-anchor remodeling also causes HPMRS and conclude that targeted sequencing of the genes encoding proteins in the GPI-anchor-synthesis pathway is an effective diagnostic approach for this subclass of CDGs.

Delineation of PIGV mutation spectrum and associated phenotypes in hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome.

Project description:Three different genes of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor synthesis pathway, PIGV, PIGO, and PGAP2, have recently been implicated in hyperphosphatasia-mental retardation syndrome (HPMRS), also known as Mabry syndrome, a rare autosomal recessive form of intellectual disability. The aim of this study was to delineate the PIGV mutation spectrum as well as the associated phenotypic spectrum in a cohort of 16 individuals diagnosed with HPMRS on the basis of intellectual disability and elevated serum alkaline phosphate as minimal diagnostic criteria. All PIGV exons and intronic boundaries were sequenced in 16 individuals. Biallelic PIGV mutations were identified in 8 of 16 unrelated families with HPMRS. The most frequent mutation detected in about 80% of affected families including the cases reported here is the c.1022C>A PIGV mutation, which was found in both the homozygous as well as the heterozygous state. Four further mutations found in this study (c. 176T>G, c.53G>A, c.905T>C, and c.1405C>T) are novel. Our findings in the largest reported cohort to date significantly extend the range of reported manifestations associated with PIGV mutations and demonstrate that the severe end of the clinical spectrum presents as a multiple congenital malformation syndrome with a high frequency of Hirschsprung disease, vesicoureteral, and renal anomalies as well as anorectal malformations. PIGV mutations are the major cause of HPMRS, which displays a broad clinical variability regarding associated malformations and growth patterns. Severe developmental delays, particular facial anomalies, brachytelephalangy, and hyperphosphatasia are consistently found in PIGV-positive individuals.

Hyperphosphatasia with Mental Retardation Syndrome Due to a Novel Mutation in PGAP3.

Project description:Hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome is a heterogeneous genetic condition. Two siblings aged 5 years and 3 years were evaluated for global development delay and facial dysmorphism. A novel missense variant, c.851A>G (p.H284R, NM_033419.3), in PGAP3 was identified using whole-exome sequencing. Assays for elevated alkaline phosphatase and exome sequencing can be useful for the diagnosis of hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome.

A Rare Variant in PGAP2 Causes Autosomal Recessive Hyperphosphatasia with Mental Retardation Syndrome, with a Mild Phenotype in Heterozygous Carriers.

Project description:Mutations in genes involved in the biosynthesis of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor cause autosomal recessive glycosylation defects, with a wide phenotypic spectrum of intellectual disability, seizures, minor facial dysmorphism, hypotonia, and elevated serum alkaline phosphatase. We now describe consanguineous Bedouin kindred presenting with an autosomal recessive syndrome of intellectual disability and elevated serum alkaline phosphatase. Genome-wide linkage analysis identified 6 possible disease-associated loci. Whole-exome sequencing followed by Sanger sequencing validation identified a single variant in PGAP2 as the disease-causing mutation (C.554G>A; p.185(R>Q)), segregating as expected within the kindred and not found in 150 Bedouin controls. The mutation replaces a highly conserved arginine residue with glutamine within the Frag1 (FGF receptor activating) domain of PGAP2. Interestingly, this mutation is a known dbSNP variant (rs745521288, build 147) with a very low allele frequency (0.00000824 in dbSNP, no homozygotes reported), highlighting the fact that dbSNP variants should not be automatically ruled out as disease-causing mutations. We further showed that PGAP2 is ubiquitously expressed, but in line with the disease phenotype, it is highly transcribed in human brain, skeletal muscle, and liver. Interestingly, a mild phenotype of slightly elevated serum levels of alkaline phosphatase and significant learning disabilities was observed in heterozygous carriers.

Hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome 3: Cerebrospinal fluid abnormalities and correction with pyridoxine and Folinic acid.

Project description:Glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchored proteins (GPI-APs) represent a class of molecules attached to the external leaflet of the plasma membrane by the GPI anchor where they play important roles in numerous cellular processes including neurogenesis, cell adhesion, immune response and signalling. Within the group of GPI anchor defects, six present with the clinical phenotype of Hyperphosphatasia with Mental Retardation Syndrome (HPMRS, Mabry Syndrome) characterized by moderate to severe intellectual disability, dysmorphic features, hypotonia, seizures and persistent hyperphosphatasia. We report the case of a 5-year-old female with global developmental delay associated with precocious puberty and persistently raised plasma alkaline phosphatase. Targeted next generation sequencing analysis of the HPMRS genes identified novel compound heterozygous variants in the PGAP2 gene (c.103del p.(Leu35Serfs*90)and c.134A > Gp.(His45Arg)) consistent with the diagnosis of HPMRS type 3. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neurotransmitter analysis showed low levels of pyridoxal phosphate and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and raised homovanillic acid. Supplementation with pyridoxine and folinic acid led to normalization of biochemical abnormalities. The patient continues to make developmental progress with significant improvement in speech and fine motor skills. Our reported case expands the clinical spectrum of HPMRS3 in which multisystem involvement is being increasingly recognized. Furthermore, it shows that miss-targeting GPI-APs and the effect on normal cellular function could provide a physiopathologic explanation for the CSF biochemical abnormalities with management implications for a group of disorders that currently has no treatment that can lead possibly to improved clinical outcomes.

Rare Noncoding Mutations Extend the Mutational Spectrum in the PGAP3 Subtype of Hyperphosphatasia with Mental Retardation Syndrome.

Project description:HPMRS or Mabry syndrome is a heterogeneous glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor deficiency that is caused by an impairment of synthesis or maturation of the GPI-anchor. The expressivity of the clinical features in HPMRS varies from severe syndromic forms with multiple organ malformations to mild nonsyndromic intellectual disability. In about half of the patients with the clinical diagnosis of HPMRS, pathogenic mutations can be identified in the coding region in one of the six genes, one among them is PGAP3. In this work, we describe a screening approach with sequence specific baits for transcripts of genes of the GPI pathway that allows the detection of functionally relevant mutations also including introns and the 5' and 3' UTR. By this means, we also identified pathogenic noncoding mutations, which increases the diagnostic yield for HPMRS on the basis of intellectual disability and elevated serum alkaline phosphatase. In eight affected individuals from different ethnicities, we found seven novel pathogenic mutations in PGAP3. Besides five missense mutations, we identified an intronic mutation, c.558-10G>A, that causes an aberrant splice product and a mutation in the 3'UTR, c.*559C>T, that is associated with substantially lower mRNA levels. We show that our novel screening approach is a useful rapid detection tool for alterations in genes coding for key components of the GPI pathway.

Mutations in PGAP3 impair GPI-anchor maturation, causing a subtype of hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation.

Project description:Glycosylphophatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins play important roles in many biological processes, and mutations affecting proteins involved in the synthesis of the GPI anchor are reported to cause a wide spectrum of intellectual disabilities (IDs) with characteristic additional phenotypic features. Here, we describe a total of five individuals (from three unrelated families) in whom we identified mutations in PGAP3, encoding a protein that is involved in GPI-anchor maturation. Three siblings in a consanguineous Pakistani family presented with profound developmental delay, severe ID, no speech, psychomotor delay, and postnatal microcephaly. A combination of autozygosity mapping and exome sequencing identified a 13.8 Mb region harboring a homozygous c.275G>A (p.Gly92Asp) variant in PGAP3 region 17q11.2-q21.32. Subsequent testing showed elevated serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), a GPI-anchored enzyme, in all three affected children. In two unrelated individuals in a cohort with developmental delay, ID, and elevated ALP, we identified compound-heterozygous variants c.439dupC (p.Leu147Profs(∗)16) and c.914A>G (p.Asp305Gly) and homozygous variant c.314C>G (p.Pro105Arg). The 1 bp duplication causes a frameshift and nonsense-mediated decay. Further evidence supporting pathogenicity of the missense mutations c.275G>A, c.314C>G, and c.914A>G was provided by the absence of the variants from ethnically matched controls, phylogenetic conservation, and functional studies on Chinese hamster ovary cell lines. Taken together with recent data on PGAP2, these results confirm the importance of the later GPI-anchor remodelling steps for normal neuronal development. Impairment of PGAP3 causes a subtype of hyperphosphatasia with ID, a congenital disorder of glycosylation that is also referred to as Mabry syndrome.

Clinical, genetic, and molecular characterization of hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation: a case report and literature review.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome (HPMRS) is a recessive disorder characterized by high blood levels of alkaline phosphatase together with typical dysmorphic signs such as cleft palate, intellectual disability, cardiac abnormalities, and developmental delay. Genes involved in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol pathway and known to be mutated in HPMRS have never been characterized in the Lebanese population. CASE PRESENTATION:Herein, we describe a pair of monozygotic twins presenting with severe intellectual disability, distinct facial dysmorphism, developmental delay, and increased alkaline phosphatase level. Two individuals underwent whole exome sequencing followed by Sanger sequencing to confirm the co-segregation of the mutation in the consanguineous family. A biallelic loss of function mutation in PGAP3 was detected. Both patients were homozygous for the c.203delC (p.C68LfsX88) mutation and the parents were carriers confirming the founder effect of the mutation. High ALP serum levels confirmed the molecular diagnosis. CONCLUSION:Our findings have illustrated the genomic profile of PGAP3-related HPMRS which is essential for targeted molecular and genetic testing. Moreover, we found previously unreported clinical findings such as hypodontia and skin hyperpigmentation. These features, together with the novel mutation expand the phenotypic and genotypic spectrum of this rare recessive disorder.

Mutations in PIGO, a member of the GPI-anchor-synthesis pathway, cause hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation.

Project description:Hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome (HPMRS), an autosomal-recessive form of intellectual disability characterized by facial dysmorphism, seizures, brachytelephalangy, and persistent elevated serum alkaline phosphatase (hyperphosphatasia), was recently shown to be caused by mutations in PIGV, a member of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor-synthesis pathway. However, not all individuals with HPMRS harbor mutations in this gene. By exome sequencing, we detected compound-heterozygous mutations in PIGO, a gene coding for a membrane protein of the same molecular pathway, in two siblings with HPMRS, and we then found by Sanger sequencing further mutations in another affected individual; these mutations cosegregated in the investigated families. The mutant transcripts are aberrantly spliced, decrease the membrane stability of the protein, or impair enzyme function such that GPI-anchor synthesis is affected and the level of GPI-anchored substrates localized at the cell surface is reduced. Our data identify PIGO as the second gene associated with HPMRS and suggest that a deficiency in GPI-anchor synthesis is the underlying molecular pathomechanism of HPMRS.
