Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Distal Myopathy v0.147 KY Bryony Thompson Marked gene: KY as ready
Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Distal Myopathy v0.147 KY Bryony Thompson Gene: ky has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Distal Myopathy v0.147 KY Bryony Thompson Classified gene: KY as Green List (high evidence)
Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Distal Myopathy v0.147 KY Bryony Thompson Gene: ky has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Distal Myopathy v0.145 KY Sangavi Sivagnanasundram gene: KY was added
gene: KY was added to Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Distal Myopathy. Sources: Other
Mode of inheritance for gene: KY was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications for gene: KY were set to 27484770; 27485408; 30591934; 11136708
Phenotypes for gene: KY were set to Myopathy, myofibrillar, 7 (MIM#617114)
Review for gene: KY was set to GREEN
Added comment: Onset is early childhood with slow progression of muscle weakness

PMID: 27484770; 27485408; 30591934
4 individuals from 3 unrelated consanguineous families with slowly progressive myopathy.
Muscle biopsy showed myopathic changes (increased variability in fibre size) and all individuals had a homozygous mutation present in the KY gene.

PMID: 11136708
A mouse model showed myopathy degeneration in the presence of a mutation in KY.
Histopathology on the mutant mouse confirmed the importance of KY protein in muscle growth and function.

Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Distal Myopathy v0.84 DNAJB4 Bryony Thompson gene: DNAJB4 was added
gene: DNAJB4 was added to Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Distal Myopathy. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: DNAJB4 was set to BOTH monoallelic and biallelic, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications for gene: DNAJB4 were set to 36512060; 36264506
Phenotypes for gene: DNAJB4 were set to distal myopathy MONDO:0018949; Myopathy, MONDO:0005336, DNAJB4-related
Review for gene: DNAJB4 was set to GREEN
Added comment: Emerging evidence of 2 different disease mechanisms: monoallelic distal myopathy may be caused by toxic gain of function and biallelic loss of function with variable onset myopathy with respiratory failure. There is more evidence for the biallelic myopathy with 3 families.
PMID: 36512060 - A single family with distal myopathy segregating a heterozygous missense variant (c.270T>A p.F90L). In vitro functional assays suggest a toxic gain of function mechanism of disease for p.F90L. Both Dnajb4F90L knock-in and Dnafjb4 knockout mice developed muscle weakness
PMID: 36264506 - 4 individuals from 3 unrelated families with myopathy with early respiratory failure with homozygous variants (c.856A > T; p.Lys286Ter, c.74G > A; p.Arg25Gln, c.785 T > C; p.Leu262Ser). DNAJB4 knockout mice had muscle weakness and fibre atrophy with prominent diaphragm involvement and kyphosis, muscle and myotubes had myofibrillar disorganization and accumulated Z-disc proteins and protein chaperones.
