Mutations of the genes encoding aminoacyl-t RNA synthetases are highly associated with various central nervous system disorders. Recurrent mutations, including c.5 AG, p.D2 G; c.1367 CT, p.S456 L; c.1535 GA, p.R512 Q and c.1846_1847 del, p.Y616 Lfs*6 of RARS1 gene, which encodes two forms of human cytoplasmic arginyl-t RNA synthetase(h Arg RS), are linked to Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like disease(PMLD) with unclear pathogenesis. Among these mutations, c.5 AG is the most extensively reported mutation, leading to a p.D2 G mutation in the N-terminal extension of the long-form h Arg RS. Here, we showed the detrimental effects of R512 Q substitution and ΔC mutations on the structure and function of h Arg RS, while the most frequent mutation c.5 AG, p.D2 G acted in a different manner without impairing h Arg RS activity. The nucleotide substitution c.5 AG reduced translation of h Arg RS m RNA, and an upstream open reading frame contributed to the suppressed translation of the downstream main ORF. Taken together, our results elucidated distinct pathogenic mechanisms of various RARS1 mutations in PMLD.  相似文献

对39个家系45个病人及60例正常人的ATP7B基因的几个外显子采用8~10%的非变性丙稀酰胺胶进行SSCP分析, 并对异常者测序(放射自显影), 发现一个家系的8号外显子上同时存在两个突变(C2250G和G2273T),患者属纯合子,其父为杂合子,母亲和妹妹为正常, 类似“杂合丢失现象”。提示在除了肿瘤之外的体细胞遗传病中,二次突变理论也可能是突变发生的机制之一。 Abstract:  Screen for mutation in many exons with 45 Wilson disease patients in 39 Chinese families by SSCP and nucleotide sequence analysis by autoradiograph. There are two mutations in exon 8 of a patients family: C2250G and G2273T. Found in these two mutation points, the patients father is a heterozygote, patients mother and sister are normal sequences, and patient is a homozygous. It just like a loss of heterogyzosity in this family with Wilson disease. The patient and her parent sibship were confirmed by taternity test with microsatellite vWF SE33 AR and D9S112. The result suggested that Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) is probable mutate mechanism of hereditary disease besides tumor and cancer.  相似文献

Niemann-Pick disease type C1 (NPC1), caused by mutations of NPC1 gene, is an inherited lysosomal lipid storage disorder. Loss of functional NPC1 causes the accumulation of free cholesterol (FC) in endocytic organelles that comprised the characteristics of late endosomes and/or lysosomes. In this study we analyzed the pathogenic effect of 103 nsSNPs reported in NPC1 using computational methods. Rl186C, S940L, R958Q and I1061T mutations were predicted as most deleterious and disease associated with NPC1 using SIFT, Polyphen 2.0, PANTHER, PhD-SNP, Pmut and MUTPred tools which were also endorsed with previous in vivo experimental studies. To understand the atomic arrangement in 3D space, the native and disease associated mutant (Rl186C, S940L, R958Q and I1061T) structures were modeled. Quantitative structural and flexibility analysis was conceded to observe the structural consequence of prioritized disease associated mutations (R1186C, S940L, R958Q and I1061T). Accessible surface area (ASA), free folding energy (FFE) and hydrogen bond (NH bond) showed more flexibility in 3D space in mutant structures. Based on the quantitative assessment and flexibility analysis of NPC1 variants, I1061T showed the most deleterious effect. Our analysis provides a clear clue to wet laboratory scientists to understand the structural and functional effect of NPCI gene upon mutation.  相似文献

CACNA1S gene encodes the α1 subunit of the calcium channel. The mutation of CACNA1S gene can cause hypokalemic periodic paralysis (HypoKPP) and maliglant hyperthermia synarome (MHS) in hu-man beings. Current research on CACNA1S was mainly in human being and model animal, but rarely in livestock and poultry. In this study, Yorkshire pigs (23), Pietrain pigs (30), Jinhua pigs (115) and the second generation (126) of crossbred of Jinhua and Pietrain were used. Primers were designed ac-cording to the sequence of human CACNA1S gene and PCR was carried out using pig genome DNA. PCR products were sequenced and compared with that of human, and then single nucleotide poly-morphisms (SNPs) were investigated by PCR-SSCP, while PCR-RFLP tests were performed to validate the mutations. Results indicated: (1) the 5211 bp DNA fragments of porcine CACNA1S gene were ac-quired (GenBank accession number: DQ767693 ) and the identity of the exon region was 82.6% be-tween human and pig; (2) fifty-seven mutations were found within the cloned sequences, among which 24 were in exon region; (3) the results of PCR-RFLP were in accordance with that of PCR-SSCP. Ac-cording to the EST of porcine CACNA1S gene published in GenBank (Bx914582, Bx666997), 8 of the 11 SNPs identified in the present study were consistent with the base difference between two EST frag-ments.  相似文献

The variation in mutations in exons 3, 6, 7, 11 and 12 of the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene was investigated in 59 children with phenylketonuria (PKU) and 100 normal children. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms were detected by sequence analysis. The mutational frequencies of cDNA 696, cDNA 735 and cDNA 1155 in patients were 96.2%, 76.1% and 7.6%, respectively, whereas in healthy children the corresponding frequencies were 97.0%, 77.3% and 8.3%. In addition, 81 mutations accounted for 61.0% of the mutant alleles. R111X, H64 > TfsX9 and S70 del accounted for 5.1%, 0.8% and 0.8% mutation of alleles in exon 3, whereas EX6-96A > G accounted for 10.2% mutation of alleles in exon 6. R243Q had the highest incidence in exon 7 (12.7%), followed by Ivs7 + 2 T > A (5.1%) and T278I (2.5%). G247V, R252Q, L255S, R261Q and E280K accounted for 0.8% while Y356X and V399V accounted for 5.9% and 5.1%, respectively, in exon 11. R413P and A434D accounted for 5.9% and 2.5%, respectively, in exon 12. Seventy-two variant alleles accounted for the 16 mutations observed here. The mutation characteristics and distributions demonstrated that EX6-96A > G and R243Q were the hot regions for mutations in the PAH gene in Shanxi patients with PKU.  相似文献

Three novel missense mutations have been identified in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) genes of Chinese individuals afflicted with various degrees of phenylketonuria (PKU). A T-to-C transition was observed in exon 5 of the gene, resulting in the substitution of Phe161 by Ser161. Two substitutions, G-to-T and T-to-G, were observed in exon 7, resulting in the substitution of Gly247 by Val247 and Leu255 by Val255, respectively. Expression analysis demonstrated that these mutant proteins produced between 0 and 15% of normal PAH enzyme activity. Population screening of a Chinese sample population indicates that these mutations are quite rare, together accounting for only about 4% of all PKU alleles among the Chinese. The P161S and G247V mutations were each present on a single PAH RFLP haplotype 4 chromosome in patients form Northern China, while the L255V mutation was present on chromosomes of both haplotypes 18 and 21 in patients from Southern China. These results suggest that the remaining 30% of uncharacterized PKU alleles in the Chinese population may bear a large number of relatively rare PAH mutations.  相似文献

Two missense mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) genes of Orientals with phenylketonuria (PKU) have been identified. A G-to-A transition in exon 7 of the gene results in the substitution of Gln243 for Arg243 (R243Q) and accounts for 18% of all PKU chromosomes among Chinese. An A-to-G transition in exon 6 of the gene results in the substitution of Cys204 for Tyr204 (Y204C) and identifies about 13 and 5% of all PKU chromosomes in the Chinese and Japanese populations, respectively. The R243Q construct produced less than 10% of normal PAH activity in in vitro expression analysis in a eukaryotic cell system, and patients homozygous for this substitution exhibit a severe clinical phenotype. These results are consistent with previous findings in this expression system. The Y204C construct, however, produced near normal levels of PAH enzyme activity and immunoreactivity in this in vitro expression system. Because this substitution is present only on PKU chromosomes, it is a valuable marker for identifying the corresponding mutant allele for carrier screening of PKU. With the characterization of these two substitutions, about 60% of PKU alleles in China can now be identified. The continuing search for additional PKU mutations will permit effective carrier screening and prenatal gene diagnosis of PKU in East Asia.  相似文献

To develop a screening kit for detecting mutation hotspots of the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene. Thirteen exons of the PAH gene were sequenced in 84 cases with phenylketonuria (PKU) diagnosed during neonatal genetic and metabolic disease screening in Shaanxi province, and their mutations were analyzed. We designed and developed a screening kit to detect nine mutation sites covering more than 50% of the PAH mutations found in Shaanxi province (c.728G>A, c.1197A>T, c.331C>T, c.1068C>A, c.611A>G, c.1238G>C, c.721C>T, c.442-1G>A, and c.158G>A) by using amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR) combined with fluorescent probe technology. Peripheral blood and dried blood samples from PKU families were used for clinical verification of the newly developed kit. PAH gene mutations were detected in 84 children diagnosed with PKU. A total of 159 mutant alleles were identified, consisting of 100 missense mutations, 28 shear mutations, 24 nonsense mutations, and 7 deletion mutations. Exon 7 had the highest mutation frequency (32.08%). Among them, the mutation frequency of p.R243Q was the highest, accounting for 20.13% of all mutations, followed by p.R111X, IVS4-1G>A, EX6-96A>G, and p.R413P; these five loci accounted for 47.17% (75/159) of all mutations. In addition, we identified three previously unreported PAH gene mutations (p.C334X, p.G46D, and p.G256D). Fifteen mutation sites were identified in the 47 PAH carriers identified by next-generation sequencing (NGS), which were verified by the newly developed kit, with an agreement rate of 100%. This newly developed kit based on ARMS-PCR combined with fluorescent probe technology can be used to detect common PAH gene mutations.  相似文献

Two missense mutations have been identified in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) genes of an Italian phenylketonuria (PKU) patient. Both mutations occurred in exon 7 of the PAH gene, resulting in the substitution of Trp for Arg at amino acid 252 (R252W) and of Leu for Pro (P281L) at amino acid 281 of the protein. Expression vectors containing either the normal human PAH cDNA or mutant cDNAs were constructed and transfected into cultured mammalian cells. Extracts from cells transfected with either mutant construct showed negligible enzyme activity and undetectable levels of immunoreactive PAH protein as compared to the normal construct. These results are compatible with the severe classical PKU phenotype observed in this patient. Population genetic studies in the Italian population revealed that both the R252W and the P281L mutations are in linkage disequilibrium with mutant restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) haplotype 1, which is the most prevalent RFLP haplotype in this population. The R252W mutation is present in 10% and the P281L mutation is present in 20% of haplotype 1 mutant chromosomes. These mutations are both very rare among other European populations, suggesting a Mediterranean origin for these mutant chromosomes.  相似文献

We describe a simple and technically feasible method for mutation screening of the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene and its application to Japanese and Chinese patients with hyperphenylalaninemia. The strategy is based on the identification of a nucleotide substitution by restriction enzyme analysis, coupled with PCR and direct sequencing of exon 7 of the PAH gene. Because the detection of various mutations can proceed simultaneously using the same technique, it is quite rapid and reproducible, making it possible to perform effective molecular diagnosis and carrier screening in most laboratories. Using this procedure, we found that the most common molecular defects were R413P in Hokkaido, Japan (35 %) and R243Q in Heilongjiang, China (50%). R111X, IVS4nt-1, and five mutations in exon 7 (R241C, R243Q, R252W, A259T, and S273P) accounted for 55% of phenylketonuria (PKU) alleles in Hokkaido. In Heilongjiang, the R111X, Y356X, and R408W mutations accounted for 35% of PKU alleles. Clinically, homozygotes or compound heterozygotes of null alleles, which express nonfunctional enzyme activity, were all associated with classic PKU. On the other hand, patients heterozygous for the R241C allele had a benign phenotype of mild hyperphenylalaninemia. The DNA diagnosis in early infancy can predict various PKU phenotypes, and can prove useful in decision-making concerning dietary therapy.  相似文献

Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) deficiency is caused by mutations in the PAH gene (12q22-q24) resulting in a primary deficiency of the PAH enzyme activity, intolerance to the dietary intake of phenylalanine (Phe) and production of the phenylketonuria (PKU) disease. To date there have been no reports on the molecular analysis of PKU in Iranian population. In this study, the states of the PKU disease in terms of prevalence and mutation spectrum among patients reside in the institutions for mentally retarded in Isfahan was investigated. In the first step, 611 out of 1541 patients with PKU phenotype or severe mental retardation were screened for the PKU disease using the Guthrie bacterial inhibition assay (GBIA) followed by HPLC. Among the patients screened 34 (5.56%) were found positive with abnormal serum Phe of above 7mg/dl. In the next step, the presence of 18 common mutations of the PAH gene in 26 of the patients with classical PKU (serum Phe above 20mg/dl) was investigated, using the polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Of the 52 independent mutant alleles that were analyzed, 34 (65.38%) were genotyped showing 8 mutations as follows: R252W (15.38%), Q232Q (13.46%), R261Q (7.69%), delL364 (7.69%), IVS10-11g>a (5.77%), L333F (5.77%), V245V (5.77%) and S67P (3.85%). The results from this study may serve as a reference to analyze the PKU mutations in other part of Iran, and to establish diagnostic tests for carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis of the PKU disease in Iranian population.  相似文献

Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene mutations were investigated in 23 (46 alleles) unrelated phenylketonuria (PKU) patients in Cukurova region. First, all exons of PAH gene were screened by denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC), and then, the suspicious samples were analyzed by direct sequencing technique. Consequently, the following results were obtained: IVS10-11g-->a splicing mutation in 27/46 (58.7%), R261Q mutation in 7/46 (15.2%) and E178G, R243X, R243Q, P281L, Y386C, R408W mutations, each found in the frequency of 2/46 (4.3%). In many countries, Arginine mutations have the highest frequency among PAH gene mutations in PKU patients. Although, CpG dinucleotids are effective in mutations resulting in arginine changes, this finding originated from the studies on the causes of mutations rather than the studies on the importance of arginine amino acid. In our analyses, we have detected that a majority of mutations causing a change in arginine and other amino acids concentrated in exon 7 comprising the catalytic domain (residues 143-410) of PAH gene. Several studies has emphasized the role of arginine amino acid; with the following outcomes; arginine repetition is significant for RNA binding proteins, and for histon proteins in eukaryotic gene expression, and also arginine repetition occurring in the structure of signal recognition particle's (SRPs) as a consequence of post-translational processes is very important in terms of gene expression. Therefore, the role of arginine amino acid in PAH gene is rather remarkable in that it shows the role of amino acids in the protein/RNA interaction that has started in the evolutionary process and is still preserved and maintained in the motif formation of active domain structure due to its strong binding properties. Thus, such properties imply that both arginine amino acid and exon 7 is of great significance with regards to the structure and function of the PheOH enzyme.  相似文献
