Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.56 JAG1 Arina Puzriakova Tag watchlist tag was added to gene: JAG1.
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.56 JAG1 Arina Puzriakova Phenotypes for gene: JAG1 were changed from Peripheral neuropathy to Vocal cord palsy; Peripheral neuropathy
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.55 JAG1 Arina Puzriakova Classified gene: JAG1 as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.55 JAG1 Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on list classification: New gene added by Zornitza Stark (Australian Genomics). Sullivan et al., 2020 (PMID:32065591) report two unrelated families with segregation, presenting vocal fold paresis. Knock in mouse model showed slight but nonsignificant reduction in compound muscle action potential and morphological assessments of the recurrent laryngeal nerve were normal. Mice did however display an increased frequency of axons with focally folded myelin. Notably, variants in JAG1 are associated with several phenotypes that have not included neuropathy and there was no history of cardiac, kidney, or liver disease in affected individuals in either of the two families discussed here (possibly different mechanisms of pathogenesis but further investigation may be warranted).

At this point there is not enough evidence to add this gene as diagnostic-grade; however, additional cases would corroborate this gene-disease association - rating Amber with 'watchlist' tag.
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.55 JAG1 Arina Puzriakova Gene: jag1 has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.4 JAG1 Zornitza Stark gene: JAG1 was added

Phenotypes for gene: JAG1 were set to Peripheral neuropathy
Mode of pathogenicity for gene: JAG1 was set to Other
Review for gene: JAG1 was set to GREEN
Added comment: Two unrelated families reported with CMT type 2. Affected individuals in both families exhibited severe vocal fold paresis, a rare feature of peripheral nerve disease that can be life-threatening. Studies of mutant protein posttranslational modification and localization indicated that the mutations (p.Ser577Arg, p.Ser650Pro) impair protein glycosylation and reduce JAG1 cell surface expression. Mice harboring heterozygous CMT2-associated mutations exhibited mild peripheral neuropathy, and homozygous expression resulted in embryonic lethality by midgestation. Pre-existing rat model.
