NGLY1 deficiency is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the NGLY1 gene that encodes N-glycanase 1. The disease phenotype in patient cells is unclear.

Off‐target inhibition of NGLY1 by the polycaspase inhibitor Z‐VAD‐fmk induces cellular autophagy [PDF]
Inhibition of NGLY1 by polycaspase inhibitor Z‐VAD‐fmk in HEK293 cells leads to induction of autophagy and increase in autophagosome formation rather than disruption of autophagic flux. Similarly, autophagy induction is observed with NGLY1 siRNA knockdown.

The TG2/LRP1 Pathway for T Cell Activation by Post-Translationally Modified Antigens. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) can generate neo‐epitopes, modified peptides that evade immune tolerance and trigger immune responses. This review focuses on the TG2/LRP1 pathway as a new paradigm for coupling the formation of post‐translationally modified peptides with their effective presentation as T‐cell antigens by dendritic cells.

Transiently elevated plasma methionine, S‐adenosylmethionine and S‐adenosylhomocysteine: Unreported laboratory findings in a patient with NGLY1 deficiency, a congenital disorder of deglycosylation [PDF]
We report on a 5‐year‐old female born to consanguineous parents, ascertained at the age of 23 months for an elevated plasma methionine level, a mildly abnormal total plasma homocysteine (tHcy), and elevated aminotransferases. She had global developmental

Structural and Functional Characterization of N-Glycanase-1 Pathogenic Variants [PDF]
NGLY1 deficiency is a congenital disorder of deglycosylation, caused by pathogenic variants of the NGLY1 gene. It manifests as global developmental delay, hypo- or alacrima, hypotonia, and a primarily hyperkinetic movement disorder.

Drug screens of NGLY1 deficiency in worm and fly models reveal catecholamine, NRF2 and anti-inflammatory-pathway activation as potential clinical approaches [PDF]
N-glycanase 1 (NGLY1) deficiency is an ultra-rare and complex monogenic glycosylation disorder that affects fewer than 40 patients globally. NGLY1 deficiency has been studied in model organisms such as yeast, worms, flies and mice.

Regulation of BMP4/Dpp retrotranslocation and signaling by deglycosylation [PDF]
During endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD), the cytoplasmic enzyme N-glycanase 1 (NGLY1) is proposed to remove N-glycans from misfolded N-glycoproteins after their retrotranslocation from the ER to the cytosol. We previously reported that

Assay for the peptide:N-glycanase/NGLY1 and disease-specific biomarkers for diagnosing NGLY1 deficiency [PDF]
Abstract Cytosolic peptide:N-glycanase (NGLY1 in mammals), a highly conserved enzyme in eukaryotes, catalyses the deglycosylation of N-glycans that are attached to glycopeptide/glycoproteins. In 2012, an autosomal recessive disorder related to the NGLY1 gene, which was referred to as NGLY1 deficiency, was reported.

Patient-derived gene and protein expression signatures of NGLY1 deficiency [PDF]
Abstract N-Glycanase 1 (NGLY1) deficiency is a rare and complex genetic disorder. Although recent studies have shed light on the molecular underpinnings of NGLY1 deficiency, a systematic characterization of gene and protein expression changes in patient-derived cells has been lacking.

Generation and characterization of NGLY1 patient-derived midbrain organoids
NGLY1 deficiency is an ultra-rare, autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the NGLY1 gene encoding N-glycanase one that removes N-linked glycan.
