A novel variant in the GNE gene in a Malian patient presenting with distal myopathy [PDF]

open access: greenNeurogenetics
Abstract Background: GNE myopathy (GM) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by variants in the GNE gene and characterized by progressive distal muscle weakness and atrophy. We report a novel variant in theGNE gene causing GM in a consanguineous Malian family. Case presentation: A 19-year-old male patient from a consanguineous family of

Lessons from GNE-deficient embryonic stem cells: sialic acid biosynthesis is involved in proliferation and gene expression [PDF]

open access: bronzeGlycobiology, 2009
Sialic acids are widely expressed as terminal carbohydrates on glycoconjugates of eukaryotic cells. They are involved in a variety of cellular functions, such as cell adhesion or signal recognition. The key enzyme of sialic acid biosynthesis is the bifunctional UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE), which catalyzes the ...

Aeromonas hydrophila flagella glycosylation: involvement of a lipid carrier.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Polar flagellin proteins from Aeromonas hydrophila strain AH-3 (serotype O34) were found to be O-glycosylated with a heterogeneous glycan. Mutants unable to produce WecP or Gne enzymes showed altered motility, and the study of their polar flagellin ...

Human induced pluripotent stem cell line (FDHSi005-A) derived from a patient with a deep intronic variant in the GNE gene

open access: goldStem Cell Research
GlcNAc2-epimerase myopathy is a rare autosomal recessive myopathy characterized by distal involvement in the lower extremities. Our study reprogrammed human-induced pluripotent stem cells from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient with GNE gene

Human Enterovirus D68 infection – the intricate dance of cells, genes, and invading bugs [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
The respiratory tract is particularly vulnerable to infections from various pathogens, often leading to severe illnesses. Co-infections involving multiple pathogens are commonly observed in respiratory diseases, although their underlying mechanisms ...
