Etiology
Etiology All individuals with NAGA deficiency have mutations in the alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase gene ( NAGA ; 22q13.2) but not all develop neurological symptoms. A number of different NAGA mutations have been identified. [orpha.net]
Etiology Different causal homozygous mutations of the NAGA gene (22q13.2) have been described in the reported patients. These mutations lead to the dysfunction, instability and rapid degradation of the lysosomal protein, NAGA. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]

Epidemiology
Summary Epidemiology Exact prevalence of NAGA deficiency is unknown but fewer than 20 cases have been reported to date in patients of German, Dutch, Spanish, Japanese, French and Moroccan origin. [orpha.net]
Epidemiology Prevalence of this disorder is not known but less than 20 cases have been reported to date for NAGA deficiency. Clinical description This disorder is clinically heterogeneous. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]
