The mutation has a combined annotation\u2010 dependent depletion (CADD) score 45 and predicted to be deleterious based on various algorithms. The mutation was inherited in an autosomal recessive mode and further confirmed to co\u2010segregate with the disease phenotype in the family and showed to has the required criteria including rarity and deleteriousness to be considered as pathogenic.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The\n                      <jats:italic>MME<\/jats:italic>\n                      gene encodes for the membrane bound endopeptidase neprilysin (NEP) which is involved in processing of various peptide substrates. The identified mutation causes a complete loss of carboxy\u2010terminal region of the NEP protein which contains the zinc binding site and the catalytic domain and thus considered to be a loss\u2010of\u2010function mutation. The loss of NEP activity is likely associated with impaired myelination and axonal injury which is hallmark of CMT diseases.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/mgg3.1913","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,25]],"date-time":"2022-02-25T07:50:58Z","timestamp":1645775458000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["A nonsense mutation in\n                    <scp>\n                      <i>MME<\/i>\n                    <\/scp>\n                    gene associates with autosomal recessive late\u2010onset\n                    <scp>Charcot\u2013Marie\u2013Tooth<\/scp>\n                    disease"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Zeinab","family":"Jamiri","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of \u200cBiology, Faculty of Science Yazd University Yazd Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rana","family":"Khosravi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology, Faculty of Science University of Zabol Zabol Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohammad Mehdi","family":"Heidari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of \u200cBiology, Faculty of Science Yazd University Yazd Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ebrahim","family":"Kiani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Human Genetics Research Center Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7018-4085","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Javad","family":"Gharechahi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Human Genetics Research Center Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.fsigss.2007.12.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/01.WNL.0000094197.46109.75"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajhg.2016.07.008"},{"issue":"5","key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"204","DOI":"10.1159\/000343487","article-title":"Molecular genetics of Charcot\u2010Marie\u2010tooth disease: From genes to genomes","volume":"3","author":"Azzedine H.","year":"2012","journal-title":"Molecular Syndromology"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2016.04.060"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","unstructured":"Bird T.
