Mutations of 3 beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type II (HSD3B2) gene result in different clinical consequences. We explain a patient who demonstrated a salt wasting form of 3βHSD deficiency in infancy. Signs of hyponatremia and hyperkalemia were recognized in the infant with ambiguous genitalia and perineal hypospadias. The 46,XY male was genotyped by direct sequencing of HSD3B2 gene. Steroid profiles showed elevated concentration of 17 hydroxyprogesterone, and decrease in concentration of cortisol, and testosterone. Dehydroepiandrotone (DHEA) to androstenedione ratio had 6 fold increases. Direct sequencing of the patient revealed homozygous missense A82P mutation in exon 3. This mutation was confirmed by segregation analysis of the parents. Bioinformatic tools were used for in silico structural and functional analyses. Also, the pathological effect of the mutation was validated by different software. Alanine is a conserved amino acid in the membrane binding domain of the enzyme and proline substitution was predicted to destabilize the protein. This report may highlight the importance of the screening programs of the disorder in Iran. 相似文献

Approximately half of the cases of hydroxysteroid (17β) dehydrogenase X (HSD10) deficiency are due to a missense C>T mutation in exon 4 of the HSD17B10 gene. The resulting HSD10 (p.R130C) loses most or all catalytic functions, and the males with this mutation have a much more severe clinical phenotype than those carrying p.V65A, p.L122V, or p.E249Q mutations. We found that the mutated cytosine which is + 2259 nucleotide from the ATG of the gene, is > 90% methylated in both the active and inactive X chromosomes in two normal females as well as in the X chromosome of a normal male. Since 5-methylcytosine is prone to conversion to thymine by deamination, the methylation of this cytosine in normal X chromosomes provides an explanation for the prevalence of the p.R130C mutation among patients with HSD10 deficiency. The substitution of arginine for cysteine eliminates several hydrogen bonds and reduces the van der Waals interaction between HSD10 subunits. The resulting disruption of protein structure impairs some if not all of the catalytic and non-enzymatic functions of HSD10. A meta-analysis of residual HSD10 activity in eight patients with the p.R130C mutation showed an average 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase (MHBD) activity of only 6 (± 5) % of the normal control level. This is significantly lower than in cells of patients with other, clinically milder mutations and suggests that the loss of HSD10/MHBD activity is a marker for the disorder. 相似文献

17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3 (17β-HSD-3) is a member of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) family and is essential for the reductive conversion of inactive C19-steroid, androstenedione, to the biologically active androgen, testosterone, which plays a central role in the development of the male phenotype. Mutations that inactivate this enzyme give rise to a rare form of male pseudohermaphroditism, referred to as 17β-HSD-3 deficiency. One such mutation is the replacement of arginine at position 80 with glutamine, compromising enzyme activity by increasing the cofactor binding constant 60-fold. In the absence of a 17β-HSD-3 crystal structure, we have grafted its amino acid sequence for the NADPH binding site on the X-ray crystal structures of glutathione reductase (Protein Data Bank code 1gra) and 17β-HSD type 1 (Protein Data Bank codes 1fdv and 1fdu) where we find the trunk of the arginine 80 side chain forms part of the hydrophobic pocket for the purine ring of adenosine while its guanidinium moiety interacts with the 2′-phosphate to both stabilize cofactor binding and neutralize its intrinsic negative charge through two hydrogen bonds. To qualitatively assess the role arginine 80 plays in both selecting and stabilizing NADPH binding, it was replaced with each amino acid and the mutant enzymes subjected to enzymatic analysis. There are only seven enzymes exhibiting any measurable enzymatic activity with arginine~lysine>leucine>glutamine>methionine>tyrosine>isoleucine. With an aspartic acid at position 58 in 17β-HSD-3 occupying the equivalent space in the cofactor binding pocket as arginine 224 in glutathione reductase or serine 12 in 17β-HSD-1, there was an expectation that some of the mutants might use NADH as a cofactor. In no case was NADH found to substitute for NADPH. 相似文献

The deficiency of steroid 11β-hydroxylase is caused by mutations in the CYP11B1 gene and is the second major form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia associated with hypertension.Objective
The objective of this study was to screen the CYP11B1 gene for mutations in one Vietnamese male suffering from congenital adrenal hyperplasia.Patient
The patient (46,XY) had congenital adrenal hyperplasia. The clinical manifestations presented precocious puberty, hyper-pigmentation and high blood pressure at 4 years.Results
The patient was a homozygous carrier of a novel mutation located in exon 7 containing a premature stop codon instead of tyrosine at 395 (p.Y395X).Conclusion
We have identified a novel mutant of the CYP11B1 gene in one Vietnamese family associated with phenotypes of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. The mutant gene p.Y395X produces a truncated form of the polypeptide and abolishes the enzyme activities, leading to a severe phenotype of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. 相似文献6.

Hydroxysteroid (17beta) dehydrogenase 10 (HSD10) is a mitochondrial multifunctional enzyme encoded by the HSD17B10 gene. Missense mutations in this gene result in HSD10 deficiency, whereas a silent mutation results in mental retardation, X-linked, syndromic 10 (MRXS10). Here we report a novel missense mutation found in the HSD17B10 gene, namely c.194T>C transition (rs104886492), brought about by the loss of two forked methyl groups of valine 65 in the HSD10 active site. The affected boy, who possesses mutant HSD10 (p.V65A), has a neurological syndrome with metabolic derangements, choreoathetosis, refractory epilepsy and learning disability. He has no history of acute decompensation or metabolic acidosis whereas his urine organic acid profile, showing elevated levels of 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyrate and tiglylglycine, is characteristic of HSD10 deficiency. His HSD10 activity was much lower than the normal control level, with normal β-ketothiolase activity. The c.194T>C mutation in HSD17B10 can be identified by the restriction fragment polymorphism analysis, thereby facilitating the screening of this novel mutation in individuals with intellectual disability of unknown etiology and their family members much easier. The patient's mother is an asymptomatic carrier, and has a mixed ancestry (Hawaiian, Japanese and Chinese). This demonstrates that HSD10 deficiency patients are not confined to a particular ethnicity although previously reported cases were either Spanish or German descendants. 相似文献

Hereditary protein S deficiency from a mutation in the PROS1 gene causes a genetic predisposition to develop venous thromboembolic disorders in humans. Recently, the acknowledgment of the clinical significance of large copy number mutations in protein S deficiency has increased. In this study, the authors investigated the genomic architecture of PROS1 in order to understand the microscopic sequence environment leading to large intragenic copy number mutations in the gene. The study subjects were 3 unrelated male patients with hereditary protein S deficiency from a tandem duplication mutation involving exons 5–10 of PROS1. Breakpoint analyses revealed 10-bp microhomology sequences in the intervening sequence (IVS)-4 and IVS-10 at the duplication junction without additional sequence changes, suggesting a single replication-based event as the potential molecular mechanism of rearrangement and founder effect in the mutant alleles. Further analyses on nucleotide sequences flanking the microhomology sequence revealed the presence of a repeat element (LTR-ERV1) and quadruplex-forming G-rich sequences in IVS-4. The results from genotyping multi-allelic short tandem repeats supported founder effect in the identical mutations in the 3 unrelated patients. In conclusion, we identified unique genomic architectures in the intervening sequences of PROS1 that underlie a large intragenic tandem duplication mutation leading to inherited thrombophilia. 相似文献

Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare inherited immunodeficiency that is caused by a functional defect of the NADPH oxidase of phagocytes, and that leads to severe recurrent infections. CGD results from the absence or the dysfunction of various components of NADPH oxidase, and autosomal recessive CGD with the lack of p67-phox (A67 CGD) is the rarest form of the disease. Identifying familiar mutations in subjects with A67 CGD provides the most reliable method of detecting carriers and is the basis for prenatal diagnosis. In the present study, we report the detailed characterization of the first duplication in the p67-phox gene identified in a 30-year-old patient affected by systemic aspergillosis attributable to p67-phox deficiency. We show that this new mutation involving exons 9 and 10 is the result of a tandem duplication of approximately 1.1 kb, which resulted from the juxtaposition of intron 8 to intron 10. We have sequenced both the junction fragment of this duplication and the corresponding wild-type regions and have found that the breakpoint regions in intron 8 and in intron 10 show limited homology. Our result suggests that this interchange arose as an illegitimate recombination event. As in other non-homologous rearrangements previously reported, the duplication breakpoints are located within the sequence motif 5'-CCAG-3' and its complement 5'-CTGG-3'. 相似文献

Glucocorticoid-suppressible hyperaldosteronism (GSH) is one variety of primary aldosteronism with hypertension and is inherited in an autosomal dominant mode. A recent report has indicated that GSH is caused by a gene duplication arising from unequal crossing over between the two genes, CYP11B1 and CYP11B2, encoding P-450(11 beta) and P-450C18, respectively (Lifton et al. Nature (1992) 355, 262-265). The nucleotide sequence analysis in the present study has demonstrated that unequal crossing over in the chimeric gene formed by the gene duplication occurs within the region from the 3'-portion of exon 4 through the 5'-portion of intron 4 in Australian GSH patients. Namely, the chimeric gene encodes a fused P-450 protein consisting of the amino-terminal side of P-450(11 beta) (encoded by exons 1-4 of CYP11B1) and the carboxyl-terminal side of P-450C18 (encoded by exons 5-9 of CYP11B2). When a cDNA corresponding to the chimeric gene is transfected into COS-7 cells, the fused P-450 protein expressed in the mitochondria exhibits steroid 18-hydroxylase or aldosterone synthase activity. These results provide the molecular genetic basis for the characteristic biochemical phenotype of GSH patients. 相似文献

The microphthalmia with linear skin defects syndrome (MLS) is an X-linked dominant disorder with male lethality. In the majority of the patients reported, the MLS syndrome is caused by segmental monosomy of the Xp22.3 region. To date, five male patients with MLS and 46,XX karyotype ("XX males") have been described. Here we report on the first male case with MLS and an XY complement. The patient showed agenesis of the corpus callosum, histiocytoid cardiomyopathy, and lactic acidosis but no microphthalmia, and carried a mosaic subtle inversion of the short arm of the X chromosome in 15% of his peripheral blood lymphocytes, 46,Y,inv(X)(p22.13 approximately 22.2p22.32 approximately 22.33)[49]/46,XY[271]. By fluorescence IN SITU hybridization (FISH), we showed that YAC 225H10 spans the breakpoint in Xp22.3. End-sequencing and database analysis revealed a YAC insert of at least 416 kb containing the genes HCCS and AMELX, and exons 2-16 of ARHGAP6. Molecular cytogenetic data suggest that the Xp22.3 inversion breakpoint is located in intron 1 of ARHGAP6, the gene encoding the Rho GTPase activating protein 6. Future molecular studies in karyotypically normal female MLS patients to detect submicroscopic rearrangements including the ARHGAP6 gene as well as mutation screening of ARHGAP6 in patients with no obvious chromosomal rearrangements will clarify the role of this gene in MLS syndrome. 相似文献

Adipose tissue type 1 11β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11β‐HSD1), which generates hormonally active cortisol from inactive cortisone, has been shown to play a central role in adipocyte differentiation and abdominal obesity‐related metabolic complications. The objective was to investigate whether genetic variations in the human 11β‐HSD1 gene are associated with the metabolic syndrome among French‐Canadian men. We sequenced all exons, the exon‐intron splicing boundaries, and 5′ and 3′ regions of the human 11β‐HSD1 gene in 36 men with the metabolic syndrome, as defined by the National Cholesterol Education Program‐Adult Treatment Panel III, and two controls. Three intronic sequence variants were identified: two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms in intron 3 (g.4478T>G) and intron 4 (g.10733G>C) and one insertion in intron 3 (g.4437‐4438insA). The relative allele frequency was 19.6%, 22.1%, and 19.6% for the g.4478G, g.10733C, and g.4438insA alleles, respectively. One single‐nucleotide polymorphism was identified in exon 6 (c.744G>C or G248G). The frequency of the c.744C allele was only 0.46% in a sample of 217 men. Variants were not associated with components of the metabolic syndrome except for plasma apolipoprotein B levels. In conclusion, molecular screening of the 11β‐HSD1 gene did not reveal any sequence variations that can significantly contribute to the etiology of the metabolic syndrome among French‐Canadians. 相似文献

AbstractContext: Mammary and placental 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (17βHSD1).Objective: To assess the impact of testosterone, tibolone, and black cohosh on purified mammary and placental 17βHSD1.Materials and methods: 17βHSD1 was purified from human mammary gland and placenta by column chromatography, its activity was monitored by a radioactive activity assay, and the degree of purification was determined by gel electrophoresis. Photometric cofactor transformation analysis was performed to assess 17βHSD1 activity without or in presence of testosterone, tibolone and black cohosh.Results: 17βHSD1 from both sources displayed a comparable basal activity. Testosterone and tibolone metabolites inhibited purified mammary and placental 17βHSD1 activity to a different extent, whereas black cohosh had no impact.Discussion: Studies on purified enzymes reveal the individual action of drugs on local regulatory mechanisms thus helping to develop more targeted therapeutic intervention.Conclusion: Testosterone, tibolone and black cohosh display a beneficial effect on local mammary estrogen metabolism by not affecting or decreasing local estradiol exposure. 相似文献

The human liver-specific organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) 1B1 and 1B3 are involved in the elimination of numerous xenobiotics and drugs. Although dogs are frequently used for toxicologic and pharmacokinetic characterization of novel drugs, nothing is known about their OATP1B1/1B3 ortholog. Therefore, we cloned and characterized the first canine organic anion transporting polypeptide from dog liver, termed Oatp1b4. The isolated Oatp1b4 cDNA comprises 3661 base pairs (bp) with an open reading frame of 2076 bp, encoding a 692-amino acid protein with a molecular mass of ∼ 85 kDa. The Oatp1b4 gene is approximately 61 kb long and has a similar organization as the human OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 with 13 exons identical in length. Northern blot analysis shows that Oatp1b4 is predominantly expressed in the liver. Oatp1b4 mediates sodium-independent transport of typical organic anions including bromosulfophthalein (BSP), [D-penicillamine2,5]enkephalin (DPDPE), estradiol-17β-glucuronide (E17βG), estrone-3-sulfate and taurocholate. In addition, Oatp1b4 transports the OATP1B3-specific substrate cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8). Kinetic studies showed that Oatp1b4-mediated E17βG and estrone-3-sulfate transports were monophasic with Km values of 5 ± 1 µM and 33 ± 4 µM, respectively. In conclusion, the cloned canine Oatp1b4 will provide additional molecular basis to further characterize the species difference of the OATP1B family members. 相似文献

The properties of 5-ene-3β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase (3β-HSD) from human placental homogenates were studied invitro. The apparent Michaelis constants for 3β-HSD with the substrates pregnenolone (Δ5P) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHA) were 170 nM and 40 nM respectively. The optimal pH for both these substrates was between 10 and 12. With NAD as the substrate, the Km for pregnenolone was 20 μM and for DHA, 17 μM. The activity of 3β-HSD was inhibited by various steroids. Competitive inhibitors (pregnenolone substrate) included: ethynylestradiol (inhibition constant Ki=7.3 nM), DHA (Ki=46 nM), estradiol-17β (Ki=46 nM), cholesterol (Ki=0.68 μM) and 16α-hydroxydehydroepiandrosterone (16αOHDHA) (Ki=2.2 μM). When the substrate was DHA, competitive inhibition occurred with the following steroids: ethynylestradiol (Ki=6.4 nM), estradiol-17β (Ki=69 nM), pregnenolone (Ki=91 μM), cholesterol (Ki=1.3 μM) and 16αOHDHA (Ki=1.9 μM). 4-Ene-3-ketosteroids such as androstenedione, progesterone (Δ4P), norethindrone and chlormadinone acetate acted as noncompetitive inhibitors towards both substrates. 相似文献

The molecular defect in a reported case of isolated 17,20-lyase deficiency in a 46XY individual has been elucidated. The patient was found to be a compound heterozygote, carrying two different mutant alleles in the CYP17 gene. One allele contains a point mutation of arginine (CGC) to cysteine (TGC) at amino acid 496 in exon 8. The second allele contains a stop codon (TAG) in place of glutamine (CAG) at position 461 in exon 8 which is located 19 amino acids to the carboxy-terminal side of the P-450(17) alpha heme binding cysteine. COS-1 cells transfected with cDNAs containing one or the other of these mutations showed dramatically reduced 17 alpha-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase activities relative to cells transfected with the wild type P-450(17) alpha cDNA. While the in vitro data in COS 1 cells can explain the patient's physical phenotype, with female external genitalia, it was somewhat discordant with the clinical expression of isolated 17,20-lyase deficiency with relative preservation of 17 alpha-hydroxylase activity in vivo. In addition to the expression studies of these two examples of mutants in the C-terminal region of cytochrome P-450(17) alpha, a third mutant cDNA construct containing a 4-base duplication at codon 480 previously found in patients with combined 17 alpha-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency was also expressed in COS-1 cells. This expressed protein was completely inactive with respect to both activities, supporting the biochemical findings in serum and in vitro biochemical data obtained using a testis from the patient. The results from these patients clearly indicate the importance of the C-terminal region of human P-450(17) alpha in its enzymatic activities. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Frasier syndrome is characterized by progressive glomerulopathy due to nonspecific focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), 46,XY sex reversal and the development of gonadoblastoma from dysgenetic gonads. Donor splice site heterozygous mutations in intron 9 of the Wilms' tumor gene (WT1) cause this disease. We investigated whether WT1 mutations showed clinical heterogeneity. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A 6-year-old phenotypic boy was diagnosed as having FSGS. His karyotype was 46,XY. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone and human chorionic gonadotropin stimulation tests revealed normal luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone and testosterone responses. The other patient was a 7-year-old 46,XY female with FSGS. Prophylactic gonadectomy was performed and gonadoblastoma was found. By polymerase chain reaction and direct sequencing, WT1 was analyzed in these patients. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Both patients had IVS9 + 5G-->A in intron 9 of the WT1. Our study indicates a normal 46,XY phenotypic male patient with FSGS. The phenotypic variations of the WT1 splice site mutations are further expanded. 相似文献

Studies of genetic males with single gene mutations that impair testosterone formation or action and consequently prevent development of the normal male phenotype provide unique insight into the control of gender role behavior. 46,XY individuals with either of two autosomal recessive mutations [17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 3 (17 beta-HSD3) deficiency or steroid 5 alpha-reductase 2 (5 alpha-R2) deficiency] have a female phenotype at birth and are raised as females but frequently change gender role behavior to male after the expected time of puberty. In contrast, genetic males with mutations that impair profoundly the function of the androgen receptor are also raised as females and have consistent female behavior as adults. Furthermore, the rare men with mutations that impair estrogen synthesis or the estrogen receptor have male gender role behavior. These findings indicate that androgens are important determinants of gender role behavior (and probably of gender identity) and that this action is mediated by the androgen receptor and not the result of conversion of androgen to estrogen. The fact that all genetic males with 17 beta-HSD3 or 5 alpha-R2 deficiency do not change gender role behavior indicates that other factors are also important determinants of this process. 相似文献

The syndrome of 17α-hydroxylase deficiency is due to the inability to synthesize cortisol and is associated with enhanced secretion of both corticosterone and 11-deoxy-corticosterone (DOC). In humans, corticosterone and its 5α-Ring A-reduced metabolites are excreted via the bile into the intestine and transformed by anaerobic bacteria to 21-dehydroxylated products: 11β-OH-progesterone or 11β-OH-(allo)-5α-preganolones (potent inhibitors of 11β-HSD2 and 11β-HSD1 dehydrogenase). Neomycin blocks the formation of these steroid metabolites and can blunt the hypertension in rats induced by either ACTH or corticosterone. 3α,5α-Tetrahydro-corticosterone, 11β-hydroxy-progesterone, and 3α,5α-tetrahydro-11β-hydroxy-progesterone strongly inhibit 11β-HSD2 and 11β-HSD1 dehydrogenase activity; all these compounds are hypertensinogenic when infused in adrenally intact rats.Urine obtained from a patient with 17α-hydroxylase deficiency demonstrated markedly elevated levels of endogenous glycyrrhetinic acid-like factors (GALFs) that inhibit 11β-HSD2 and 11β-HSD1 dehydrogenase activity (>300 times greater, and >400 times greater, respectively, than those in normotensive controls). Thus, in addition to DOC, corticosterone and its 5α-pathway products as well as the 11-oxygenated progesterone derivatives may play a previously unrecognized role in the increased Na+ retention and BP associated with patients with 17α-hydroxylase deficiency. 相似文献

Mutations in the 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17beta-HSD) type 3 gene are associated with the clinical findings of 17beta-HSD deficiency. We investigated 5 patients of German descent with 46,XY karyotype and predominantly female phenotype. Androstenedione (A) and testosterone (T) levels in serum were determined before and after stimulation with human chorionic gonadotropin. DNA analysis of the whole coding region of the 17beta-HSD type 3 gene was performed by PCR, single-strand conformation analysis, and direct sequencing. In all patients we found highly variable A and T levels before and after stimulation. However, the A-to-T ratio was abnormal in all cases suggestive of 17beta-HSD deficiency. Molecular genetic analysis revealed mutations in all patients. We conclude that A and T levels may be highly variable in patients with 17beta-HSD deficiency. Molecular genetic analysis of the 17beta-HSD gene may support the diagnosis of this disorder. 相似文献
