Abstract
To date, approximately 500 monogenic inherited kidney diseases have been reported, with more than 50 genes associated with the pathogenesis of monogenic isolated or syndromic nephrotic syndrome. Most of these genes are expressed in podocytes of the glomerulus. Neurological symptoms are common extrarenal manifestations of syndromic nephrotic syndrome, and various studies have found connections between podocytes and neurons in terms of morphology and function. This review summarizes the genetic and clinical characteristics of monogenic inherited diseases with concomitant glomerular and central nervous system lesions, aiming to enhance clinicians' understanding of such diseases, recognize the importance of genetic diagnostic techniques for comorbidity screening, and reduce the rates of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.

Abstract
Galloway-Mowat syndrome is a rare autosomal-recessive genetic disorder that is characterized by variety of complications such as neurological abnormalities and early-onset progressive kidney disease. Studies have been shown that pathogenic mutations in genes that belong to the KEOPS complex lead to Galloway-Mowat syndrome. Several pathogenic mutations in OSGEP gene, a member of the KEOPS complex, have been detected in Galloway-Mowat syndrome. Here we describe a 12-year-old male with intellectual disability, poor speech, seizures, microcephaly, and nephrotic syndrome that were in favor of Galloway-Mowat syndrome, born to a healthy Iranian consanguineous parents. Extracted genomic DNA from blood sample was used to perform whole-exome sequencing in the patient. The mutational screening revealed a novel homozygote OSGEP gene missense variant. Our finding established whole-exome sequencing as a valuable technic for the detection of rare variants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Galloway-Mowat syndrome (GAMOS) is a group of rare hereditary diseases by the combination of early onset steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) and microcephaly with brain anomalies caused by WDR73, LAGE3, OSGEP, TP53RK, TPRKB, GON7, WDR4 or NUP133 mutations. CASE PRESENTATION We present the clinical and genetic features of a two-year-old boy with early nephrotic syndrome, microcephaly, growth retardation hypotonia and hypothyroidism. Genetic testing showed the presence of a canonical-splice mutation in the LAGE3 gene (NM_006014: c.188 + 1C > T). A total of nine female members of the family carried the variant. Seven male members died prematurely, and three of them suffered from nephrotic syndrome, which is consistent with the x-linked gene map of the disease. The overall symptoms of the disease due to the LAGE3 mutation were mild compared to other pathogenic genes. CONCLUSION As far as we know, this is the largest family case of GAMOS2 caused by LAGE3 mutation found so far. We also compared other subtypes of GAMOS. Due to the heterogeneity of the renal phenotype, regular proteinuria screening is recommended for all patients diagnosed with GAMOS.

Abstract
Objectives Galloway-Mowat syndrome-4 (GAMOS4) is a very rare renal-neurological disease caused by TP53RK gene mutations. GAMOS4 is characterized by early-onset nephrotic syndrome, microcephaly, and brain anomalies. To date, only nine GAMOS4 cases with detailed clinical data (caused by eight deleterious variants in TP53RK) have been reported. This study aimed to examine the clinical and genetic characteristics of three unrelated GAMOS4 patients with TP53RK gene compound heterozygous mutations. Methods Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was used to identify four novel TP53RK variants in three unrelated Chinese children. Clinical characteristics such as biochemical parameters and image findings of patients were also evaluated. Furthermore, four studies of GAMOS4 patients with TP53RK variants were reviewed. In addition, clinical and genetic features were described after a retrospective analysis of clinical symptoms, laboratory data, and genetic test results. Results The three patients showed facial abnormalities, developmental delays, microcephaly, and aberrant cerebral imaging. Furthermore, patient 1 had slight proteinuria, while patient 2 had epilepsy. However, none of the individuals had nephrotic syndrome, and all were alive for more than 3 years of age. This is the first study to assess four variants in the TP53RK gene (NM_033550.4: c.15_16dup/p.A6Efs*29, c.745A > G/p.R249G, c.185G > A/p.R62H, and c.335A > G/p.Y112C). Conclusion The clinical characteristics of the three children with TP53RK mutations are significantly different from the known GAMOS4 traits, including early nephrotic syndrome and mortality mainly occurring in the first year of life. This study provides insights into the pathogenic TP53RK gene mutation spectrum and clinical phenotypes of GAMOS4.

Abstract
Galloway-Mowat syndrome (GAMOS) is a very rare condition characterized by early-onset nephrotic syndrome and microcephaly with variable neurologic features. While considerable genetic heterogeneity of GAMOS has been identified, the majority of cases are caused by pathogenic variants in genes encoding the four components of the Kinase, endopeptidase, and other proteins of small size (KEOPS) complex, one of which is TP53RK. Here we describe a 3-year-old male with progressive microcephaly, neurodevelopmental deficits, and glomerular proteinuria. He was found to carry a novel homozygous TP53RK missense variant, c.163C>G (p.Arg55Gly), which was considered as potentially disease-causing. We generated a morpholino tp53rk knockdown model in Xenopus laevis showing that the depletion of endogenous Tp53rk caused abnormal eye and head development. This phenotype could be rescued by the expression of human wildtype TP53RK but not by the c.163C>G mutant nor by another previously described GAMOS-associated mutant c.125G>A (p.Gly42Asp). These findings support the pathogenic role of the novel TP53RK variant.

Abstract
The universal N6-threonylcarbamoyladenosine (t6A) modification occurs at position 37 of tRNAs that decipher codons starting with adenosine. Mechanistically, t6A stabilizes structural configurations of the anticodon stem loop, promotes anticodon-codon pairing and safeguards the translational fidelity. The biosynthesis of tRNA t6A is co-catalyzed by two universally conserved protein families of TsaC/Sua5 (COG0009) and TsaD/Kae1/Qri7 (COG0533). Enzymatically, TsaC/Sua5 protein utilizes the substrates of L-threonine, HCO3-/CO2 and ATP to synthesize an intermediate L-threonylcarbamoyladenylate, of which the threonylcarbamoyl-moiety is subsequently transferred onto the A37 of substrate tRNAs by the TsaD-TsaB -TsaE complex in bacteria or by the KEOPS complex in archaea and eukaryotic cytoplasm, whereas Qri7/OSGEPL1 protein functions on its own in mitochondria. Depletion of tRNA t6A interferes with protein homeostasis and gravely affects the life of unicellular organisms and the fitness of higher eukaryotes. Pathogenic mutations of YRDC, OSGEPL1 and KEOPS are implicated in a number of human mitochondrial and neurological diseases, including autosomal recessive Galloway-Mowat syndrome. The molecular mechanisms underscoring both the biosynthesis and cellular roles of tRNA t6A are presently not well elucidated. This review summarizes current mechanistic understandings of the catalysis, regulation and disease implications of tRNA t6A-biosynthetic machineries of three kingdoms of life, with a special focus on delineating the structure-function relationship from perspectives of conservation and diversity.

Abstract
Unaffected relatives of individuals with non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) show distinctive facial features. The presence of this facial endophenotype is potentially an expression of underlying genetic susceptibility to NSCL/P in the larger unselected population. To explore this hypothesis, we first partitioned the face into 63 partially overlapping regions representing global-to-local facial morphology and then defined endophenotypic traits by contrasting the 3D facial images from 264 unaffected parents of individuals with NSCL/P versus 3,171 controls. We observed distinct facial features between parents and controls across 59 global-to-local facial segments at nominal significance (p ≤ 0.05) and 52 segments at Bonferroni corrected significance (p < 1.2 × 10-3), respectively. Next, we quantified these distinct facial features as univariate traits in another dataset of 8,246 unaffected European individuals and performed a genome-wide association study. We identified 29 independent genetic loci that were associated (p < 5 × 10-8) with at least one of the tested endophenotypic traits, and nine genetic loci also passed the study-wide threshold (p < 8.47 × 10-10). Of the 29 loci, 22 were in proximity of loci previously associated with normal facial variation, 18 were near genes that show strong evidence in orofacial clefting (OFC), and another 10 showed some evidence in OFC. Additionally, polygenic risk scores for NSCL/P showed associations with the endophenotypic traits. This study thus supports the hypothesis of a shared genetic architecture of normal facial development and OFC.

Abstract
KEOPS complex is one of the most conserved protein complexes in eukaryotes. It plays important roles in both telomere uncapping and tRNA N6-threonylcarbamoyladenosine (t6A) modification in budding yeast. But whether KEOPS complex plays any roles in DNA repair remains unknown. Here, we show that KEOPS complex plays positive roles in both DNA damage response and homologous recombination-mediated DNA repair independently of its t6A synthesis function. Additionally, KEOPS displays DNA binding activity in vitro, and is recruited to the chromatin at DNA breaks in vivo, suggesting a direct role of KEOPS in DSB repair. Mechanistically, KEOPS complex appears to promote DNA end resection through facilitating the association of Exo1 and Dna2 with DNA breaks. Interestingly, inactivation of both KEOPS and Mre11/Rad50/Xrs2 (MRX) complexes results in synergistic defect in DNA resection, revealing that KEOPS and MRX have some redundant functions in DNA resection. Thus we uncover a t6A-independent role of KEOPS complex in DNA resection, and propose that KEOPS might be a DSB sensor to assist cells in maintaining chromosome stability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Galloway-Mowat syndrome (GAMOS) is a neural and renal disorder, characterized by microcephaly, brain anomalies, and early onset nephrotic syndrome. Biallelic mutations in WDR73 and the 4 subunit genes of the KEOPS complex are reported to cause GAMOS. Furthermore, an identical homozygous NUP107 (nucleoporin 107kDa) mutation was identified in 4 GAMOS-like families, although biallelic NUP107 mutations were originally identified in steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. NUP107 and NUP133 (nucleoporin 133kDa) are interacting subunits of the nuclear pore complex in the nuclear envelope during interphase, and these proteins are also involved in centrosome positioning and spindle assembly during mitosis. METHODS Linkage analysis and whole exome sequencing were performed in a previously reported GAMOS family with brain atrophy and steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. RESULTS We identified a homozygous NUP133 mutation, c.3335-11T>A, which results in the insertion of 9bp of intronic sequence between exons 25 and 26 in the mutant transcript. NUP133 and NUP107 interaction was impaired by the NUP133 mutation based on an immunoprecipitation assay. Importantly, focal cortical dysplasia type IIa was recognized in the brain of an autopsied patient and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis was confirmed in the kidneys of the 3 examined patients. A nup133-knockdown zebrafish model exhibited microcephaly, fewer neuronal cells, underdeveloped glomeruli, and fusion of the foot processes of the podocytes, which mimicked human GAMOS features. nup133 morphants could be rescued by human wild-type NUP133 mRNA but not by mutant mRNA. INTERPRETATION These data indicate that the biallelic NUP133 loss-of-function mutation causes GAMOS. Ann Neurol 2018;84:814-828.

Domingo-Gallego A, Furlano M, Pybus M, Barraca D, Martínez AB, Mora Muñoz E, Torra R, Ars E. Novel homozygous OSGEP gene pathogenic variants in two unrelated patients with Galloway-Mowat syndrome: case report and review of the literature. BMC Nephrol 2019; 20:126. [PMID: 30975089 PMCID: PMC6458604 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-019-1317-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2018] [Accepted: 03/29/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Galloway-Mowat syndrome (GAMOS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by early-onset nephrotic syndrome and microcephaly with brain anomalies. WDR73 pathogenic variants were described as the first genetic cause of GAMOS and, very recently, four novel causative genes, OSGEP, LAGE3, TP53RK, and TPRKB, have been identified. Case presentation We present the clinical and genetic characteristics of two unrelated infants with clinical suspicion of GAMOS who were born from consanguineous parents. Both patients showed a similar clinical presentation, with early-onset nephrotic syndrome, microcephaly, brain atrophy, developmental delay, axial hypotonia, and early fatality. We identified two novel likely disease-causing variants in the OSGEP gene. These two cases, in conjunction with the findings of a literature review, indicate that OSGEP pathogenic variants are associated with an earlier onset of nephrotic syndrome and shorter life expectancy than WDR73 pathogenic variants. Conclusions Our findings expand the spectrum of pathogenic variants in the OSGEP gene and, taken in conjunction with the results of the literature review, suggest that the OSGEP gene should be considered the main known monogenic cause of GAMOS. Early genetic diagnosis of GAMOS is of paramount importance for genetic counseling and family planning.

Abstract
tRNA are post-transcriptionally modified by chemical modifications that affect all aspects of tRNA biology. An increasing number of mutations underlying human genetic diseases map to genes encoding for tRNA modification enzymes. However, our knowledge on human tRNA-modification genes remains fragmentary and the most comprehensive RNA modification database currently contains information on approximately 20% of human cytosolic tRNAs, primarily based on biochemical studies. Recent high-throughput methods such as DM-tRNA-seq now allow annotation of a majority of tRNAs for six specific base modifications. Furthermore, we identified large gaps in knowledge when we predicted all cytosolic and mitochondrial human tRNA modification genes. Only 48% of the candidate cytosolic tRNA modification enzymes have been experimentally validated in mammals (either directly or in a heterologous system). Approximately 23% of the modification genes (cytosolic and mitochondrial combined) remain unknown. We discuss these 'unidentified enzymes' cases in detail and propose candidates whenever possible. Finally, tissue-specific expression analysis shows that modification genes are highly expressed in proliferative tissues like testis and transformed cells, but scarcely in differentiated tissues, with the exception of the cerebellum. Our work provides a comprehensive up to date compilation of human tRNA modifications and their enzymes that can be used as a resource for further studies.
