Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.88 NEMF Sarah Leigh commented on gene: NEMF
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.83 NEMF Sarah Leigh Tag to_be_confirmed_NHSE tag was added to gene: NEMF.
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.12 NEMF Arina Puzriakova Classified gene: NEMF as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.12 NEMF Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on list classification: Rating Amber but there is sufficient evidence to promote to Green at the next GMS panel update (added 'for-review' tag) - axonal neuropathy reported in all formally assessed cases (at least 4 with biallelic variants)
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.12 NEMF Arina Puzriakova Gene: nemf has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.11 NEMF Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on mode of inheritance: Set MOI to 'Biallelic' as only 1 case with a monoallelic variant described at present. The 'watchlist' tag has been added while further evidence is gathered to establish whether or not there is a wider association with monoallelic variants and disease.
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.11 NEMF Arina Puzriakova Mode of inheritance for gene: NEMF was changed from BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.10 NEMF Arina Puzriakova edited their review of gene: NEMF: Changed mode of inheritance: BOTH monoallelic and biallelic, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder v1.10 NEMF Arina Puzriakova gene: NEMF was added
gene: NEMF was added to Hereditary neuropathy NOT PMP22 copy number. Sources: Literature
watchlist, for-review tags were added to gene: NEMF.
Mode of inheritance for gene: NEMF was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal

- PMID: 32934225 (2020) - 8 individuals from 6 families with a juvenile neuromuscular disease due to biallelic NEMF variants. A ninth individual with similar presentation was found to harbor a single NEMF missense SNV as de novo event.

Features incl. hypotonia (4/8 with biallelic variant (B) | 1/1 monoallelic (M)), DD/ID (7/8B | 0/1M) with speech delay as universal feature (8/8B | 1/1M), axonal neuropathy (3/3B | 1/1M), ataxia (3/8B | 0/1M). Other findings included tremor (1/7B | 1/1M), abnormal brain imaging (2/6B / ?/1M), kyphosis/scoliosis (4/8B | 0/1M), respiratory distress (1/8B | 0/1M). The authors provide evidence that mice homozygous for Nemf missense mutations display progressive motor phenotypes, exhibit neurogenic atrophy and progressive axonal degeneration.


- PMID: 33048237 (2020) - 13 affected individuals from 5 unrelated families presenting with a spectrum of central and peripheral neurological involvement. Peripheral systemic neurological manifestations such as impaired eye movements, limb weakness, and axonal polyneuropathy were found in families 1, 2 and 5 - however, only 2 sibs from family 2 had a precise diagnosis for polyneuropathies. Knockdown studies in cultured mouse primary cortical neurons showed a significant decrease in axon length and impaired synapse development.
