Neurodegenerative disorders, adult onset v9.9 ARPP21 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram changed review comment from: PMID:30811981 (2019) reported the identification of five potential causal variants via exome-sequencing in two related individuals with autosomal dominant amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Another family member developed unilateral weakness and upper motor neuron dysfunction suggestive of ALS despite detailed neurological investigation not fulfilling El-Escorial diagnostic criteria, but no alternative cause being identified. Screening this individual for the five candidate mutations revealed only c.274C>T (p.Arg92Cys) in GLT8D1 gene and c.1586C>T (p.Pro529Leu) variant in ARPP21 gene.

Targeted sequencing in 103 familial and young sporadic ALS cases identified five additional patients carrying two missense variants within GLT8D1: the p.Arg92Cys variant identified in the index pedigree in four patients, of which three of them also had p.Pro529Leu in ARPP21, and c.232C>A (p.Gly78Trp) in one (no variant in ARPP21 gene). Sequencing of an international ALS cohort identified four additional patients with p.Pro529Leu variant in ARPP21, but not with any variants in GLT8D1 gene. Note that p.Pro529Leu is also annotated as p.Pro563Leu depending on transcript build (as in ClinGen curation - https://search.clinicalgenome.org/CCID:004177). The p.Pro563Leu variant is present in only 4 alleles in gnomAD v4.1.1.

PMID:31653410 (2019) reported the analysis of rare pathogenic variants in GLT8D1 and ARPP21 genes in a cohort of 512 ALS patients and 3210 healthy controls from mainland China, where they did not find any significant association between ALS and GLT8D1 or ARPP21.

PMID:3358193 (2021) screened 81 familial and 618 sporadic Australian ALS cases and found no significant enrichment of protein-altering variants in either GLT8D1 or ARPP21 genes.

PMID:38960585 (2025) reported the identification of the same heterozygous ARPP21 missense variant (p.Pro529Leu/ p.Pro563Leu) in 10 affected individuals across seven unrelated ALS families, all with a classic spinal- or bulbar-onset ALS phenotype, and no variants were found in other ALS genes. Haplotype analysis suggested that the variant is embedded in a founder-type haplotype enriched in Iberian/British/South Asian ancestries and rare in East Asian/African ancestries, which the authors propose explains non-replication in other populations.

PMID:41917433 (2026) harmonized and analyzed exome data from 22 cohorts, totaling 17,919 individuals with ALS and 200,703 controls across discovery and replication phases, which independently replicated p.Pro563Leu as an ALS-associated variant after excluding overlapping UK/Spanish carriers (meta P=4.31×10⁻⁹, OR 44.8) and identified a novel second variant p.Pro747Leu (OR 75.8, not previously reported). The p.Pro747Leu variant is found in eight alleles in gnomAD v4.1.1.

There is some limited functional evidence available. PMID:8120638 (1994) reported that ARPP21 is predominantly expressed in a subset of brain tissues. PMID:29581509 (2018) reported that ARPP21 localises to stress granules under cellular stress, binds uridine-rich motifs in mRNA 3'UTRs via iCLIP, and acts as a positive post-transcriptional regulator (via eIF4A/eIF4G interaction) that antagonizes its co-transcribed intronic microRNA miR-128 to promote dendritic complexity in cortical neurons .

This gene has not yet been associated with relevant phenotypes in OMIM (last accessed 24 August 2026). But, it is classified with 'Limited' rating for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (MONDO:0004976) by Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Spectrum Disorders GCEP in ClinGen.

Sequencing of an international ALS cohort confirmed significant ALS-association with genetic variation in exon 4 of GLT8D1 in familial ALS patients, with p.Arg92Cys variant identified without p.Pro529Leu variant in ARPP21 gene in two additional patients. There is also functional evidence available including impaired enzyme activity, cytotoxicity, and motor deficits in GLT8D1 Knock Down in zebrafish embryos.

GLT8D1 p.Arg92Cys is present in 222 alleles and p.Gly78Trp is present in 10 alleles in gnomAD v4.1.1 whereas ARPP21 p.Pro529Leu is present in only 8 alleles.

PMID:33581933 (2021) reported a cohort of 977 Chinese sporadic ALS (sALS) cases and 47 Chinese familial ALS (fALS) cases that underwent whole-exome sequencing. A likely pathogenic heterozyous variant in exon 4 ( c.233G>A/ p.Gly78Ala) was identified in a fALS case. This variant is present in 17 alleles in gnomAD v4.1.1 (although none in East Asian population). Four additional rare missense variants — p.V291I (fALS, pedigree unavailable — affected relative died), p.H24R (2 sALS patients), p.R255Q (1 sALS), p.G281S (1 sALS) — all classified as VUS due to lack of cosegregation and/or benign-to-tolerated in silico predictions.

PMID:34746377 (2021) reported Sanger sequencing in a cohort of patients with ALS, of which a novel heterozygous variant in GLT8D1 gene (c.870C>G/ p.Ile290Met) was identified in a single patient with spinal-onset familial ALS. This variant is not found in gnomAD v4.1.1. Functional studies demonstrated that the variant I290M GLT8D1 protein was mislocalized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), provoked ER stress and unfolded protein response, compromised the glycosyltransferase activity, and led to an increased cytotoxicity.

PMID:33581933 (2021) reported a cohort of 977 Chinese sporadic ALS (sALS) cases and 47 Chinese familial ALS (fALS) cases that underwent whole-exome sequencing. A likely pathogenic heterozyous variant in exon 4 ( c.233G>A/ p.Gly78Ala) was identified in a fALS case. This variant is present in 17 alleles in gnomAD v4.1.1 (although none in East Asian population). Four additional rare missense variants — p.V291I (fALS, pedigree unavailable — affected relative died), p.H24R (2 sALS patients), p.R255Q (1 sALS), p.G281S (1 sALS) — all classified as VUS due to lack of cosegregation and/or benign-to-tolerated in silico predictions.

PMID:34746377 (2021) reported Sanger sequencing in a cohort of patients with ALS, of which a novel heterozygous variant in GLT8D1 gene (c.870C>G/ p.Ile290Met) was identified in a single patient with spinal-onset familial ALS. This variant is not found in gnomAD v4.1.1. Functional studies demonstrated that the variant I290M GLT8D1 protein was mislocalized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), provoked ER stress and unfolded protein response, compromised the glycosyltransferase activity, and led to an increased cytotoxicity.

Added comment: Two cohort studies in ALS patients identified 11 and 1 patient, respectively, with variants in DNAJC7. Seven of these are putative PTVs. No segregation or functional data. A small number of individuals with LOF variants are present in gnomad albeit less than expected. Given these are cohort studies, and an adult-onset condition, potentially of variable penetrance, we have taken a cautious approach and rated Amber for now but would be interested in other expert opinions. No PMID yet.

Publications for gene: PRKRA were set to 18420150 - a novel heterozygous variant c.266_267delAT; 25914261; 26990861; 22842711; 24142417 - Compound heterozygous variants were reported in a patient with early onset dystonia c.665C>T (p.P222L) inherited from his mother, and c.637T>C (p.C213R) was a novel mutation; 25142429 In a Polish family, the homozygous p.Pro222Leu mutation segregated with autosomal-recessive, early-onset generalized dystonia and slight parkinsonism; 22842711 describes the clinical features of three original cases with homozygous PRKRA variants - the patients presented with either a pure generalised dystonia or with a dystonia-parkinsonism that was relatively unresponsive to L-dopa; 18243799; 25142429; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK1155/; 18420150; p.H89fsX20 was reported in a proband with early childhood-onset leg dystonia (though testing in the parents was not mentioned).; 24142417; 25737287 Compound het variants (c.G230C (p.Cys77Ser), and in exon 7, c.G638T (p.Cys213Phe)) identified in the two affected siblings reported with dystonia without parkinsonism, unaffected family members were heterozygous; PMID: 26990861 - c.665C>T homozygous variant was identified in 3 affected siblings with Early-Onset Generalized Dystonia-Parkinsonism (and was heterozygous in the unaffected patients and an unaffected sibling). It was confirmed by Sanger sequencing and had a frequency of 0.01% in the Exome Aggregation Consortium database, predicted to be deleterious by 2 of 6 in silico tools. They showed it was within a founder haplotype shared by all previoulsy reported cases. The Authors state Screening of PRKRA is warranted in all patients with early-onset generalized dystonia, or dystonia parkinsonism compatible with autosomal recessive inheritance; 18243799 - two unrelated families with members with an apparent autosomal recessive, novel, young-onset, generalised form of dystonia parkinsonism. A region of homozygosity was found in all affected individuals, and narrowed down to the homozygous variant c.665C>T (P222L); 25737287
