A biallelic variant in GORASP1 causes a novel Golgipathy with glycosylation and mitotic defects. Life Sci Alliance 2025; 8:e202403065. [PMID: 39933924 PMCID: PMC11814487 DOI: 10.26508/lsa.202403065] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2024] [Revised: 01/29/2025] [Accepted: 01/30/2025] [Indexed: 02/13/2025] Open
Abstract
GRASP65 is a Golgi-associated peripheral protein encoded by the GORASP1 gene and required for Golgi cisternal stacking in vitro. A key role of GRASP65 in the regulation of cell division has also been suggested. However, depletion of GRASP65 in mice has little effect on the Golgi structure and the gene has not been associated with any human phenotype to date. Here, we report the identification of the first human pathogenic variant of GORASP1 (c.1170_1171del; p.Asp390Glufs*18) in a patient combining a neurodevelopmental disorder with neurosensory, neuromuscular, and skeletal abnormalities. Functional analysis revealed that the variant leads to a total absence of GRASP65. The structure of the Golgi apparatus did not show fragmentation, but glycosylation anomalies such as hyposialylation were detected. Mitosis analyses revealed an excess of prometaphases and metaphases with polar chromosomes, suggesting a delay in the cell cycle. These phenotypes were recapitulated in RPE cells in which a similar mutation was introduced by CRISPR/Cas9. These results indicate that loss of GRASP65 in humans causes a novel Golgipathy associated with defects in glycosylation and mitotic progression.

Abstract
The GC (Golgi complex) plays a pivotal role in the trafficking and sorting of proteins and lipids until they reach their final destination. Additionally, the GC acts as a signalling hub to regulate a multitude of cellular processes, including cell polarity, motility, apoptosis, DNA repair and cell division. In light of these crucial roles, the GC has garnered increasing attention, particularly given the evidence that a dysregulation of GC-regulated signalling pathways may contribute to the onset of various pathological conditions. This review examines the functions of the GC and GC-localised proteins in regulating cell cycle progression, in both mitosis and meiosis. It reviews the involvement of GC-resident proteins in the formation and orientation of the spindle during cell division. In light of the roles played by the GC in controlling cell division, this review also addresses the involvement of the GC in cancer development. Furthermore, TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) database has been queried in order to retrieve information on the genetic alterations and the correlation between the expression of GC-localised proteins and the survival of cancer patients. The data presented in this review highlight the relevance of the GC in regulating cell cycle progression, cellular differentiation and tumourigenesis.

Abstract
Cytokine release from airway epithelial cells is a key immunological process that coordinates an immune response in the lungs. We propose that the Rho GTPase, Cdc42, regulates both transcription and trafficking of cytokines, ultimately affecting the essential process of cytokine release and subsequent inflammation in the lungs. Here, we examined the pro-inflammatory transcriptional profile that occurs in bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) in response to TNF-α using RNA-Seq and differential gene expression analysis. To interrogate the role of Cdc42 in inflammatory gene expression, we used a pharmacological inhibitor of Cdc42, ML141, and determined changes in the transcriptomic profile induced by Cdc42 inhibition. Our results indicated that Cdc42 inhibition with ML141 resulted in a unique inflammatory phenotype concomitant with increased gene expression of ER stress genes, Golgi membrane and vesicle transport genes. To further interrogate the inflammatory pathways regulated by Cdc42, we made BEAS-2B knockdown strains for the signaling targets TRIB3, DUSP5, SESN2 and BMP4, which showed high differential expression in response to Cdc42 inhibition. Depletion of DUSP5 and TRIB3 reduced the pro-inflammatory response triggered by Cdc42 inhibition as shown by a reduction in cytokine transcript levels. Depletion of SESN2 and BMP4 did not affect cytokine transcript level, however, Golgi fragmentation was reduced. These results provide further evidence that in airway epithelial cells, Cdc42 is part of a signaling network that controls inflammatory gene expression and secretion by regulating Golgi integrity. Summary sentence:We define the Cdc42-regulated gene networks for inflammatory signaling in airway epithelial cells which includes regulation of ER stress response and vesicle trafficking pathways.

Abstract
Cohen Syndrome (CS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by biallelic mutations in the VPS13B gene. It is characterized by multiple clinical features, including acquired microcephaly, developmental delay, intellectual disability, neutropenia, and retinal degeneration. VPS13B is part of the bridge-like lipid transport (BLTP) protein family, which in mammals also includes VPS13A, -C, and -D. The proteins of this family are peripheral membrane proteins with different sub-cellular localization, but all share similar structural features and have been proposed to act as lipid transport proteins at organellar membrane contact sites. VPS13B is localized at the Golgi apparatus and is essential for the maintenance of organelle architecture. Here we present a review of the experimental data on the function of the protein at the cellular level, discussing the potential link with disease phenotype and review the studies on animal models recapitulating features of the human disease.

Abstract
Human space exploration poses inherent risks to astronauts' health, leading to molecular changes that can significantly impact their well-being. These alterations encompass genomic instability, mitochondrial dysfunction, increased inflammation, homeostatic dysregulation, and various epigenomic changes. Remarkably, these changes bear similarities to those observed during the aging process on Earth. However, our understanding of the connection between these molecular shifts and disease development in space remains limited. Frailty syndrome, a clinical syndrome associated with biological aging, has not been comprehensively investigated during spaceflight. To bridge this knowledge gap, we leveraged murine data obtained from NASA's GeneLab, along with astronaut data gathered from the JAXA and Inspiration4 missions. Our objective was to assess the presence of biological markers and pathways related to frailty, aging, and sarcopenia within the spaceflight context. Through our analysis, we identified notable changes in gene expression patterns that may be indicative of the development of a frailty-like condition during space missions. These findings suggest that the parallels between spaceflight and the aging process may extend to encompass frailty as well. Consequently, further investigations exploring the utility of a frailty index in monitoring astronaut health appear to be warranted.

Cellular Organelle-Related Transcriptomic Profile Abnormalities in Neuronopathic Types of Mucopolysaccharidosis: A Comparison with Other Neurodegenerative Diseases. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2024; 46:2678-2700. [PMID: 38534785 PMCID: PMC10968730 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46030169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2024] [Revised: 03/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of diseases caused by mutations in genes encoding lysosomal enzymes that catalyze reactions of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) degradation. As a result, GAGs accumulate in lysosomes, impairing the proper functioning of entire cells and tissues. There are 14 types/subtypes of MPS, which are differentiated by the kind(s) of accumulated GAG(s) and the type of a non-functional lysosomal enzyme. Some of these types (severe forms of MPS types I and II, MPS III, and MPS VII) are characterized by extensive central nervous system disorders. The aim of this work was to identify, using transcriptomic methods, organelle-related genes whose expression levels are changed in neuronopathic types of MPS compared to healthy cells while remaining unchanged in non-neuronopathic types of MPS. The study was conducted with fibroblast lines derived from patients with neuronopathic and non-neuronopathic types of MPS and control (healthy) fibroblasts. Transcriptomic analysis has identified genes related to cellular organelles whose expression is altered. Then, using fluorescence and electron microscopy, we assessed the morphology of selected structures. Our analyses indicated that the genes whose expression is affected in neuronopathic MPS are often associated with the structures or functions of the cell nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, or Golgi apparatus. Electron microscopic studies confirmed disruptions in the structures of these organelles. Special attention was paid to up-regulated genes, such as PDIA3 and MFGE8, and down-regulated genes, such as ARL6IP6, ABHD5, PDE4DIP, YIPF5, and CLDN11. Of particular interest is also the GM130 (GOLGA2) gene, which encodes golgin A2, which revealed an increased expression in neuronopathic MPS types. We propose to consider the levels of mRNAs of these genes as candidates for biomarkers of neurodegeneration in MPS. These genes may also become potential targets for therapies under development for neurological disorders associated with MPS and candidates for markers of the effectiveness of these therapies. Although fibroblasts rather than nerve cells were used in this study, it is worth noting that potential genetic markers characteristic solely of neurons would be impractical in testing patients, contrary to somatic cells that can be relatively easily obtained from assessed persons.

Abstract
Neurons forming the human brain are generated during embryonic development by neural stem and progenitor cells via a process called neurogenesis. A crucial feature contributing to neural stem cell morphological and functional heterogeneity is cell polarity, defined as asymmetric distribution of cellular components. Cell polarity is built and maintained thanks to the interplay between polarity proteins and polarity-generating organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus (GA). ER and GA affect the distribution of membrane components and work as a hub where glycans are added to nascent proteins and lipids. In the last decades our knowledge on the role of polarity in neural stem and progenitor cells have increased tremendously. However, the role of traffic and associated glycosylation in neural stem and progenitor cells is still relatively underexplored. In this review, we discuss the link between cell polarity, architecture, identity and intracellular traffic, and highlight how studies on neurons have shaped our knowledge and conceptual framework on traffic and polarity. We will then conclude by discussing how a group of rare diseases, called congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) offers the unique opportunity to study the contribution of traffic and glycosylation in the context of neurodevelopment.

Abstract
This article critically evaluates the multifunctional role of the Golgi apparatus within neurological paradigms. We succinctly highlight its influence on neuronal plasticity, development, and the vital trafficking and sorting mechanisms for proteins and lipids. The discourse further navigates to its regulatory prominence in neurogenesis and its implications in Alzheimer's Disease pathogenesis. The emerging nexus between the Golgi apparatus and SARS-CoV-2 underscores its potential in viral replication processes. This consolidation accentuates the Golgi apparatus's centrality in neurobiology and its intersections with both neurodegenerative and viral pathologies. In essence, understanding the Golgi's multifaceted functions harbors profound implications for future therapeutic innovations in neurological and viral afflictions.

Abstract
Premature ovarian insufficiency(POI)is a female reproductive aging illness. Yiwei decoction(YWD) is a traditional treatment for Yangming nourishment. YWD can treat premature ovarian insufficiency, but the exact molecular mechanism is unknown. As a result, the differential expression of Long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) and Circular RNAs(CircRNAs) in the ovary of POI rats after YWD treatment was investigated in this paper, and the CeRNA regulatory network was built. The model was created using cyclophosphamide. The model group + YWD was in Group A, the model control group was in Group B, and the regular control group was in Group C. In this study, 177 differential expression Long noncoding RNAs(DELncRNAs) and 190 differential expression Circular RNAs (DECircRNAs) were discovered between A and B (P<0.05,|LogFC|>1). Following the analysis, 27 DELncRNAs and 96 DECircRNAs (P-adjusted<0.05,|LogFC|>1) were discovered. At the same time, we built the CeRNA network using differentially expressed mRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs) expression between groups A and B. The DELncRNAs were used to construct a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA network with 27 LncRNAs, 4 miRNAs, and 19 mRNAs. The DECircRNAs were utilized to establish a CircRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA network that was made up of 15 CircRNAs, 4 miRNAs, and 20 mRNA. The highly correlated regulatory networks were the LncMSTRG.22691.3/miR-3102/ANGPT4 and Circ10_34698898_34699378/miR-33-5p/TTC22. Circ20_12035276_12036793、Circ20_30693935_30696337、Circ4_157723097_157723378 and Circ4_157923266_157923904 occurred concurrently in AvsB, BvsC, and AvsC. MiRDB predicted eight target miRNAs for these CircRNAs. The miRanda(score = 140,energy = -1) binding energy calculation revealed that seven miRNAs were well combined with three CircRNA base complementary pairs. This implies that 3 DECircRNAs could serve as spongy bodies for these miRNAs. Network pharmacological analysis showed that ten active components in YWD may regulate the expression of LncRNAs and CircRNAs, such as Stigmasterol, Uridine, Ophiopogonanone A, Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid, and others. In conclusion, this study combined transcriptomics and network pharmacological analysis to identify differentially expressed lncRNAs as well as CircRNAs in ovaries of YWD-treated POI rats, thereby constructing ceRNA networks implicated in POI. This would contribute to clarifying the pathways by which Chinese herbal compounds regulate gene expression in POI.

Abstract
Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy 9 (HSAN9) is a rare fatal neurological disease caused by mis- and nonsense mutations in the gene encoding for Tectonin β-propeller repeat containing protein 2 (TECPR2). While TECPR2 is required for lysosomal consumption of autophagosomes and ER-to-Golgi transport, it remains elusive how exactly TECPR2 is involved in autophagy and secretion and what downstream sequels arise from defective TECPR2 due to its involvement in these processes. To address these questions, we determine molecular consequences of TECPR2 deficiency along the secretory pathway. By employing spatial proteomics, we describe pronounced changes with numerous proteins important for neuronal function being affected in their intracellular transport. Moreover, we provide evidence that TECPR2's interaction with the early secretory pathway is not restricted to COPII carriers. Collectively, our systematic profiling of a HSAN9 cell model points to specific trafficking and sorting defects which might precede autophagy dysfunction upon TECPR2 deficiency.

Toniolo L, Sirago G, Fiotti N, Giacomello E. Golgi Complex form and Function: A Potential Hub Role Also in Skeletal Muscle Pathologies? Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:14989.

Abstract
A growing number of disorders has been associated with mutations in the components of the vesicular transport machinery. The early secretory pathway consists of Endoplasmic Reticulum, numerous vesicles, and the Golgi Complex (GC), which work together to modify and package proteins to deliver them to their destination. The GC is a hub organelle, crucial for organization of the other secretory pathway components. As a consequence, GC's form and function are key players in the pathogenesis of several disorders. Skeletal muscle (SKM) damage can be caused by defective protein modifications and traffic, as observed in some Limb girdle muscular dystrophies. Interestingly, in turn, muscle damage in Duchenne dystrophic SKM cells also includes the alteration of GC morphology. Based on the correlation between GC's form and function described in non-muscle diseases, we suggest a key role for this hub organelle also in the onset and progression of some SKM disorders. An altered GC could affect the secretory pathway via primary (e.g., mutation of a glycosylation enzyme), or secondary mechanisms (e.g., GC mis-localization in Duchenne muscles), which converge in SKM cell failure. This evidence induces considering the secretory pathway as a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of muscular dystrophies.

Abstract
Vesicle biogenesis, trafficking and signaling via Endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi network support essential developmental processes and their disruption lead to neurodevelopmental disorders and neurodegeneration. We report that de novo missense variants in ARF3, encoding a small GTPase regulating Golgi dynamics, cause a developmental disease in humans impairing nervous system and skeletal formation. Microcephaly-associated ARF3 variants affect residues within the guanine nucleotide binding pocket and variably perturb protein stability and GTP/GDP binding. Functional analysis demonstrates variably disruptive consequences of ARF3 variants on Golgi morphology, vesicles assembly and trafficking. Disease modeling in zebrafish validates further the dominant behavior of the mutants and their differential impact on brain and body plan formation, recapitulating the variable disease expression. In-depth in vivo analyses traces back impaired neural precursors' proliferation and planar cell polarity-dependent cell movements as the earliest detectable effects. Our findings document a key role of ARF3 in Golgi function and demonstrate its pleiotropic impact on development.

Abstract
The recently uncovered role of Fukutin-related protein (FKRP) in fibronectin glycosylation has challenged our understanding of the basis of disease pathogenesis in the muscular dystrophies. FKRP is a Golgi-resident glycosyltransferase implicated in a broad spectrum of muscular dystrophy (MD) pathologies that are not fully attributable to the well-described α-Dystroglycan hypoglycosylation. By revealing a new role for FKRP in the glycosylation of fibronectin, a modification critical for the development of the muscle basement membrane (MBM) and its associated muscle linkages, new possibilities for understanding clinical phenotype arise. This modification involves an interaction between FKRP and myosin-10, a protein involved in the Golgi organization and function. These observations suggest a FKRP nexus exists that controls two critical aspects to muscle fibre integrity, both fibre stability at the MBM and its elastic properties. This review explores the new potential disease axis in the context of our current knowledge of muscular dystrophies.

Abstract
The Golgi is the central organelle of the secretory pathway and it houses the majority of the glycosylation machinery, which includes glycosylation enzymes and sugar transporters. Correct compartmentalization of the glycosylation machinery is achieved by retrograde vesicular trafficking as the secretory cargo moves forward by cisternal maturation. The vesicular trafficking machinery which includes vesicular coats, small GTPases, tethers and SNAREs, play a major role in coordinating the Golgi trafficking thereby achieving Golgi homeostasis. Glycosylation is a template-independent process, so its fidelity heavily relies on appropriate localization of the glycosylation machinery and Golgi homeostasis. Mutations in the glycosylation enzymes, sugar transporters, Golgi ion channels and several vesicle tethering factors cause congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) which encompass a group of multisystem disorders with varying severities. Here, we focus on the Golgi vesicle tethering and fusion machinery, namely, multisubunit tethering complexes and SNAREs and their role in Golgi trafficking and glycosylation. This review is a comprehensive summary of all the identified CDG causing mutations of the Golgi trafficking machinery in humans.

Abstract
Golgi matrix protein 130 (GM130) is a Golgi-shaping protein located on the cis surface of the Golgi apparatus (GA). It is one of the most studied Golgin proteins so far. Its biological functions are involved in many aspects of life processes, including mitosis, autophagy, apoptosis, cell polarity, and directed migration at the cellular level, as well as intracellular lipid and protein transport, microtubule formation and assembly, lysosome function maintenance, and glycosylation modification. Mutation inactivation or loss of expression of GM130 has been detected in patients with different diseases. GM130 plays an important role in the development of the nervous system, but the studies on it are limited. This article reviewed the current research progress of GM130 in nervous system diseases. It summarized the physiological functions of GM130 in the occurrence and development of Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), microcephaly (MCPH), sepsis associated encephalopathy (SAE), and Ataxia, aiming to provide ideas for the further study of GM130 in nervous system disease detection and treatment.

Abstract
GOGLA2/GM130 is a Golgin protein involved in vesicle tethering, cell proliferation and autophagy. Recessive loss of function mutation in GOLGA2 has been previously reported in a single family with muscular dystrophy and microcephaly. Here we describe a second consanguineous family with the bi-allelic loss of function mutations in GOLGA2. The patient exhibits microcephaly, seizures, and myopathy similar to the previously reported patient with GOLGA2 mutation. This report supports the critical developmental requirement of GOLGA2 and emphasizes a similar and severe clinical presentation with loss of function mutations in affected patients.

Abstract
Spindle orientation is important in multiple developmental processes as it determines cell fate and function. The orientation of the spindle depends on the assembly of a proper astral microtubule network. Here, we report that the spindle assembly factor TPX2 regulates astral microtubules. TPX2 in the spindle pole area is activated by GM130 (GOLGA2) on Golgi membranes to promote astral microtubule growth. GM130 relieves TPX2 inhibition by competing for importin α1 (KPNA2) binding. Mitotic phosphorylation of importin α at serine 62 (S62) by CDK1 switches its substrate preference from TPX2 to GM130, thereby enabling competition-based activation. Importin α S62A mutation impedes local TPX2 activation and compromises astral microtubule formation, ultimately resulting in misoriented spindles. Blocking the GM130-importin α-TPX2 pathway impairs astral microtubule growth. Our results reveal a novel role for TPX2 in the organization of astral microtubules. Furthermore, we show that the substrate preference of the important mitotic modulator importin α is regulated by CDK1-mediated phosphorylation.

Abstract
Human post-natal neurodevelopmental delay is often associated with cerebral alterations that can lead, by themselves or associated with peripheral deficits, to premature death. Here, we report the clinical features of 10 patients from six independent families with mutations in the autosomal YIF1B gene encoding a ubiquitous protein involved in anterograde traffic from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell membrane, and in Golgi apparatus morphology. The patients displayed global developmental delay, motor delay, visual deficits with brain MRI evidence of ventricle enlargement, myelination alterations and cerebellar atrophy. A similar profile was observed in the Yif1b knockout (KO) mouse model developed to identify the cellular alterations involved in the clinical defects. In the CNS, mice lacking Yif1b displayed neuronal reduction, altered myelination of the motor cortex, cerebellar atrophy, enlargement of the ventricles, and subcellular alterations of endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus compartments. Remarkably, although YIF1B was not detected in primary cilia, biallelic YIF1B mutations caused primary cilia abnormalities in skin fibroblasts from both patients and Yif1b-KO mice, and in ciliary architectural components in the Yif1b-KO brain. Consequently, our findings identify YIF1B as an essential gene in early post-natal development in human, and provide a new genetic target that should be tested in patients developing a neurodevelopmental delay during the first year of life. Thus, our work is the first description of a functional deficit linking Golgipathies and ciliopathies, diseases so far associated exclusively to mutations in genes coding for proteins expressed within the primary cilium or related ultrastructures. We therefore propose that these pathologies should be considered as belonging to a larger class of neurodevelopmental diseases depending on proteins involved in the trafficking of proteins towards specific cell membrane compartments.

Abstract
Microcephaly is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by a small brain size associated with intellectual deficiency in most cases and is one of the most frequent clinical sign encountered in neurodevelopmental disorders. It can result from a wide range of environmental insults occurring during pregnancy or postnatally, as well as from various genetic causes and represents a highly heterogeneous condition. However, several lines of evidence highlight a compromised mode of division of the cortical precursor cells during neurogenesis, affecting neural commitment or survival as one of the common mechanisms leading to a limited production of neurons and associated with the most severe forms of congenital microcephaly. In this context, the emergence of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus as key guardians of cellular homeostasis, especially through the regulation of proteostasis, has raised the hypothesis that pathological ER and/or Golgi stress could contribute significantly to cortical impairments eliciting microcephaly. In this review, we discuss recent findings implicating ER and Golgi stress responses in early brain development and provide an overview of microcephaly-associated genes involved in these pathways.

Abstract
The golgins comprise a family of vesicle tethering proteins that act in a selective manner to tether transport vesicles at the Golgi apparatus. Tethering is followed by membrane fusion to complete the delivery of vesicle-bound cargo to the Golgi. Different golgins are localized to different regions of the Golgi, and their ability to selectively tether transport vesicles is important for the specificity of vesicle traffic in the secretory pathway. In recent years, our mechanistic understanding of golgin-mediated tethering has greatly improved. We are also beginning to appreciate how the loss of golgin function can impact upon physiological processes through the use of animal models and the study of human disease. These approaches have revealed that loss of a golgin causes tissue-restricted phenotypes, which can vary in severity and the cell types affected. In many cases, it is possible to attribute these phenotypes to a defect in vesicular traffic, although why certain tissues are sensitive to loss of a particular golgin is still, in most cases, unclear. Here, I will summarize recent progress in our understanding of golgins, focusing on the physiological roles of these proteins, as determined from animal models and the study of disease in humans. I will describe what these in vivo analyses have taught us, as well as highlight less understood aspects, and areas for future investigations.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus (GA) is involved in a whole spectrum of activities, from lipid biosynthesis and membrane secretion to the posttranslational processing and trafficking of most proteins, the control of mitosis, cell polarity, migration and morphogenesis, and diverse processes such as apoptosis, autophagy, and the stress response. In keeping with its versatility, mutations in GA proteins lead to a number of different disorders, including syndromes with multisystem involvement. Intriguingly, however, > 40% of the GA-related genes known to be associated with disease affect the central or peripheral nervous system, highlighting the critical importance of the GA for neural function. We have previously proposed the term "Golgipathies" in relation to a group of disorders in which mutations in GA proteins or their molecular partners lead to consequences for brain development, in particular postnatal-onset microcephaly (POM), white-matter defects, and intellectual disability (ID). Here, taking into account the broader role of the GA in the nervous system, we refine and enlarge this emerging concept to include other disorders whose symptoms may be indicative of altered neurodevelopmental processes, from neurogenesis to neuronal migration and the secretory function critical for the maturation of postmitotic neurons and myelination.

Abstract
ABSTRACT
Skeletal muscle (SKM) differentiation is a highly regulated process leading to the formation of specialised cells with reorganised compartments and organelles, such as those of the early secretory pathway. During SKM differentiation the Golgi complex (GC) redistributes close to the nuclear envelope and in small distinct peripheral structures distributed throughout the myotube. Concurrently, GC elements closely associate with endoplasmic reticulum-exit sites (ERES). The mechanisms underlying this reorganisation and its relevance for SKM differentiation are poorly understood. Here, we show, by time-lapse imaging studies, that the changes in GC organisation involve GC fragmentation and redistribution of ERES with the formation of tightly associated GC–ERES units. We show that knockdown of GM130 (also known as GOLGA2) or p115 (also known as USO1), two regulators of the early secretory pathway, impairs GC and ERES reorganisation. This in turn results in inhibition of myotube fusion and M-cadherin (also known as CDH15) transport to the sarcolemma. Taken together, our data suggest that the correct reorganisation of the early secretory pathway components plays an important role in SKM differentiation and, thus, associated pathologies.

Abstract
Autosomal-dominant, early-onset DYT1 dystonia is associated with an in-frame deletion of a glutamic acid codon (ΔE) in the TOR1A gene. The gene product, torsinA, is an evolutionarily conserved AAA+ ATPase. The fact that constitutive secretion from patient fibroblasts is suppressed indicates that the ΔE-torsinA protein influences the cellular secretory machinery. However, which component is affected remains unclear. Prompted by recent reports that abnormal protein trafficking through the Golgi apparatus, the major protein-sorting center of the secretory pathway, is sometimes associated with a morphological change in the Golgi, we evaluated the influence of ΔE-torsinA on this organelle. Specifically, we examined its structure by confocal microscopy, in cultures of striatal, cerebral cortical and hippocampal neurons obtained from wild-type, heterozygous and homozygous ΔE-torsinA knock-in mice. In live neurons, the Golgi was assessed following uptake of a fluorescent ceramide analog, and in fixed neurons it was analyzed by immuno-fluorescence staining for the Golgi-marker GM130. Neither staining method indicated genotype-specific differences in the size, staining intensity, shape or localization of the Golgi. Moreover, no genotype-specific difference was observed as the neurons matured in vitro. These results were supported by a lack of genotype-specific differences in GM130 expression levels, as assessed by Western blotting. The Golgi was also disrupted by treatment with brefeldin A, but no genotype-specific differences were found in the immuno-fluorescence staining intensity of GM130. Overall, our results demonstrate that the ΔE-torsinA protein does not drastically influence Golgi morphology in neurons, irrespective of genotype, brain region (among those tested), or maturation stage in culture. While it remains possible that functional changes in the Golgi exist, our findings imply that any such changes are not severe enough to influence its morphology to a degree detectable by light microscopy.

TRAPPC11 and GOSR2 mutations associate with hypoglycosylation of α-dystroglycan and muscular dystrophy. Skelet Muscle 2018; 8:17.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transport protein particle (TRAPP) is a supramolecular protein complex that functions in localizing proteins to the Golgi compartment. The TRAPPC11 subunit has been implicated in muscle disease by virtue of homozygous and compound heterozygous deleterious mutations being identified in individuals with limb girdle muscular dystrophy and congenital muscular dystrophy. It remains unclear how this protein leads to muscle disease. Furthermore, a role for this protein, or any other membrane trafficking protein, in the etiology of the dystroglycanopathy group of muscular dystrophies has yet to be found. Here, using a multidisciplinary approach including genetics, immunofluorescence, western blotting, and live cell analysis, we implicate both TRAPPC11 and another membrane trafficking protein, GOSR2, in α-dystroglycan hypoglycosylation. CASE PRESENTATION Subject 1 presented with severe epileptic episodes and subsequent developmental deterioration. Upon clinical evaluation she was found to have brain, eye, and liver abnormalities. Her serum aminotransferases and creatine kinase were abnormally high. Subjects 2 and 3 are siblings from a family unrelated to subject 1. Both siblings displayed hypotonia, muscle weakness, low muscle bulk, and elevated creatine kinase levels. Subject 3 also developed a seizure disorder. Muscle biopsies from subjects 1 and 3 were severely dystrophic with abnormal immunofluorescence and western blotting indicative of α-dystroglycan hypoglycosylation. Compound heterozygous mutations in TRAPPC11 were identified in subject 1: c.851A>C and c.965+5G>T. Cellular biological analyses on fibroblasts confirmed abnormal membrane trafficking. Subject 3 was found to have compound heterozygous mutations in GOSR2: c.430G>T and c.2T>G. Cellular biological analyses on fibroblasts from subject 3 using two different model cargo proteins did not reveal defects in protein transport. No mutations were found in any of the genes currently known to cause dystroglycanopathy in either individual. CONCLUSION Recessive mutations in TRAPPC11 and GOSR2 are associated with congenital muscular dystrophy and hypoglycosylation of α-dystroglycan. This is the first report linking membrane trafficking proteins to dystroglycanopathy and suggests that these genes should be considered in the diagnostic evaluation of patients with congenital muscular dystrophy and dystroglycanopathy.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus is tightly integrated into the cellular system where it plays essential roles required for a variety of cellular processes. Its vital functions include not only processing and sorting of proteins and lipids, but also serving as a signaling hub and a microtubule-organizing center. Golgi stacks in mammalian cells are interconnected into a compact ribbon in the perinuclear region. However, the ribbon can undergo distinct disassembly processes that reflect the cellular state or environmental demands and stress. For instance, its most dramatic change takes place in mitosis when the ribbon is efficiently disassembled into vesicles through a combination of ribbon unlinking, cisternal unstacking and vesiculation. Furthermore, the ribbon can also be detached and positioned at specific cellular locations to gain additional functionalities during differentiation, or fragmented to different degrees along disease progression or upon cell death. Here, we describe the major morphological alterations of Golgi ribbon disassembly under physiological and pathological conditions and discuss the underlying mechanisms that drive these changes.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus lies at the heart of the secretory pathway where it is required for secretory trafficking and cargo modification. Disruption of Golgi architecture and function has been widely observed in neurodegenerative disease, but whether Golgi dysfunction is causal with regard to the neurodegenerative process, or is simply a manifestation of neuronal death, remains unclear. Here we report that targeted loss of the golgin GM130 leads to a profound neurological phenotype in mice. Global KO of mouse GM130 results in developmental delay, severe ataxia, and postnatal death. We further show that selective deletion of GM130 in neurons causes fragmentation and defective positioning of the Golgi apparatus, impaired secretory trafficking, and dendritic atrophy in Purkinje cells. These cellular defects manifest as reduced cerebellar size and Purkinje cell number, leading to ataxia. Purkinje cell loss and ataxia first appear during postnatal development but progressively worsen with age. Our data therefore indicate that targeted disruption of the mammalian Golgi apparatus and secretory traffic results in neuronal degeneration in vivo, supporting the view that Golgi dysfunction can play a causative role in neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Inherited aberrancies in intracellular vesicular transport are associated with a variety of neurological and non-neurological diseases. RUSC2 is a gene found on chromosome 9p13.3 that codes for iporin, a ubiquitous protein with high expression in the brain that interacts with Rab proteins (GTPases implicated in intracellular protein trafficking). Although mutations in Rab proteins have been described as causing brain abnormalities and intellectual disability, until now no disease-causing mutations in RUSC2 have ever been reported in humans. We describe, to our knowledge for the first time, three patients with inherited homozygous nonsense mutations identified in RUSC2 on whole-exome sequencing. All three patients had central hypotonia, microcephaly, and moderate to severe intellectual disability. Two patients had additional features of early-onset epilepsy and absence of the splenium. This report adds to the ever-expanding landscape of genetic causes of intellectual disability and increases our understanding of the cellular processes underlying this important neurological entity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical exome sequencing (CES) has greatly improved the diagnostic process for individuals with suspected genetic disorders. However, the majority remains undiagnosed after CES. Although understanding potential reasons for this limited sensitivity is critical for improving the delivery of clinical genomics, research in this area has been limited. MATERIALS AND METHODS We first calculated the theoretical maximum sensitivity of CES by analyzing >100 families in whom a Mendelian phenotype is mapped to a single locus. We then tested the hypothesis that positional mapping can limit the search space and thereby facilitate variant interpretation by reanalyzing 33 families with "negative" CES and applying positional mapping. RESULTS We found that >95% of families who map to a single locus harbored genic (as opposed to intergenic) variants that are potentially identifiable by CES. Our reanalysis of "negative" CES revealed likely causal variants in the majority (88%). Several of these solved cases have undergone negative whole-genome sequencing. CONCLUSION The discrepancy between the theoretical maximum and the actual clinical sensitivity of CES is primarily in the variant filtration rather than the variant capture and sequencing phase. The solution to negative CES is not necessarily in expanding the coverage but rather in devising approaches that improve variant filtration. We suggest that positional mapping is one such approach.Genet Med advance online publication 06 October 2016.

EFHC1 variants in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy: reanalysis according to NHGRI and ACMG guidelines for assigning disease causality. Genet Med 2016; 19:144-156. [PMID: 27467453 DOI: 10.1038/gim.2016.86] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2015] [Accepted: 05/09/2016] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE EFHC1 variants are the most common mutations in inherited myoclonic and grand mal clonic-tonic-clonic (CTC) convulsions of juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME). We reanalyzed 54 EFHC1 variants associated with epilepsy from 17 cohorts based on National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) and American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) guidelines for interpretation of sequence variants. METHODS We calculated Bayesian LOD scores for variants in coinheritance, unconditional exact tests and odds ratios (OR) in case-control associations, allele frequencies in genome databases, and predictions for conservation/pathogenicity. We reviewed whether variants damage EFHC1 functions, whether efhc1-/- KO mice recapitulate CTC convulsions and "microdysgenesis" neuropathology, and whether supernumerary synaptic and dendritic phenotypes can be rescued in the fly model when EFHC1 is overexpressed. We rated strengths of evidence and applied ACMG combinatorial criteria for classifying variants. RESULTS Nine variants were classified as "pathogenic," 14 as "likely pathogenic," 9 as "benign," and 2 as "likely benign." Twenty variants of unknown significance had an insufficient number of ancestry-matched controls, but ORs exceeded 5 when compared with racial/ethnic-matched Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) controls. CONCLUSIONS NHGRI gene-level evidence and variant-level evidence establish EFHC1 as the first non-ion channel microtubule-associated protein whose mutations disturb R-type VDCC and TRPM2 calcium currents in overgrown synapses and dendrites within abnormally migrated dislocated neurons, thus explaining CTC convulsions and "microdysgenesis" neuropathology of JME.Genet Med 19 2, 144-156.
