Zornitza Stark changed review comment from: PIGA 34875027: variants in PIGA causing a neurodevelopment disorder and a juvenile form of hereditary hemochromatosis reported in > three unrelated patients. All patients had increased serum iron, ferritin and transferrin saturation levels, high ALP and low hepcidin. All patients had generalised seizures and intellectual disability. A subpopulation of patient blood cells showed a slight reduction of GPI-anchored proteins, suggesting that the mutations were hypomorphic and retained some residual activity. CRISPR/Cas12a-mediated knockdown of PIGA in Hep3B liver cells eliminated the cell surface expression of GPI-anchored proteins CD59 and hemojuvelin (HJV; 608374), as well as caused decreased expression of hepcidin (606464) compared to controls. These hypomorphic alleles could explain the milder neurologic phenotype, which allowed for sufficiently long survival for the iron overload phenotype to manifest.; to: PMID 34875027: variants in PIGA causing a neurodevelopment disorder and a juvenile form of hereditary hemochromatosis reported in > three unrelated patients.
