Summary In a four-generation family, chondrodysplasia punctata was found in a boy and one of his maternal uncles. These two patients also have short stature, as do all female members of the family. DNA molecular analysis of the pseudoautosomal and Xp22.3-specific loci revealed the presence of an interstitial deletion that cosegregates with the phenotypic abnormalities. The proximal breakpoint of this deletion was located distal to the DXS31 locus and the distal breakpoint in the pseudoautosomal region between DXYS59 and DXYS17. This maps the recessive X-linked form of chondrodysplasia punctata between the proximal boundary of the pseudoautosomal region and DXS31, and an Xp gene controlling growth between DXYS59 and DXS31. 相似文献

Although the locus for X-linked recessive chondrodysplasia punctata (CDPX1) has been mapped to the region between PABX and DXS31 (the critical region is about 3 Mb long), the precise location within the critical region has not been determined. In this paper, we describe a boy with a 46,Y,der(X)t(X;Y)(p22.3;q11)mat karyotype and review the genotype-phenotype correlations in three male patients with the combination of apparent lack of clinical features of CDPX1 and a partial deletion of the critical region. The results suggest that the region defined by the two BssHII sites at 3180 and 3570 kb from the Xp telomere may be the target region for the CDPX1 locus. 相似文献

Summary A case of X-linked recessive chondrodysplasia punctata (CP) is described. The finding of a reciprocal X-Y translocation involving the region distal to Xp22.3 and the presence of fluorescent Yp11.23 regions confirms the localization of X-linked recessive CP at p22.3. No gross peroxisomal abnormalities were present in the propositus.Part of this work was presented at the V International Congress on Inborn Errors of Metabolism, Asilomar, California, USA, 1990 相似文献

Genetic mutations have been identified in a modest proportion of patients with combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD). We reported a 3-generation family consisting of 18 members, including 5 affected males (the proband, his 2 brothers, his cousin, and his maternal uncle; III1–III4, II8) suffered with CPHD. MRI of the pituitary gland showed hypoplasia of the pituitary gland in affected members. By 19 STR markers and linkage analysis, we found that the disease gene localized between the DXS987 and DXS1226 markers (LOD score = 2.408, θ = 0). All affected male patients inherited the same haplotype from the female carrier (I4). The proband's mother (II4) and her sister (II3, II6) were obligate female carriers. However, the unaffected males (II7, II9) in the family did not have this haplotype. These observations confirm a new X-linked recessive inherited disease in a Chinese family with CPHD and the pathogenic gene is mapped to Xp22.1–Xp11. 相似文献

X-linked ichthyosis is a genetic disorder affecting the skin and caused by a deficit in the steroid sulfatase enzyme (STS), often associated with a recurrent microdeletion at Xp22.31. Most of the STS deleted patients have X-linked ichthyosis as the only clinical feature and it is believed that patients with more complex disorders including mental retardation could be present as a result of contiguous gene deletion. In fact, VCX3A gene, a member of the VCX (variable charge, X chromosome) gene family, was previously proposed as the candidate gene for X-linked non-specific mental retardation in patients with X-linked ichthyosis. 相似文献

Despite many efforts, the mouse homolog of ARSE, the gene implicated in X-linked recessive chondrodysplasia punctata, has not yet been identified. This absence has so far impaired a deep study of the role of this gene. For this reason, we searched the avian homolog and here report the identification of a chicken sulfatase, cARS, that shares high degree of homology with the cluster of sulfatases located on the short arm of the human X chromosome. cARS activity against a sulfated artificial substrate is heat labile and inhibited by warfarin, features that are characteristic of ARSE. The expression in pharyngeal arches, somites, and leg buds during chick development is consistent with cARS being the functional ortholog of ARSE, matching the tissues affected in this genetic disorder. The identification of the ARSE chicken gene is an important step for the study of its natural substrate and its role during development. 相似文献

The murine X-linked dominant mutation bare patches (Bpa) has a phenotype similar to and is likely homologous to human X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata (CDPX2). Classic two-point linkage analysis in the mouse with distant markers suggested that Bpa maps near glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6pd). We have confirmed the regional localization using interspecific matings with Mus spretus. We have also detected a restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) at the murine X-linked visual pigment (Rsvp) locus in inbred Bpa females using the restriction enzyme PstI. Cumulative data from segregation of alleles using the PstI RFLP and analysis of interspecific backcross progeny at the Rsvp locus suggest that Bpa is tightly linked to Rsvp. Thus, the human CDPX2 gene probably maps within Xq27-Xq28 and not within Xp22.3-Xpter, where deletions associated with X-linked recessive chondrodysplasia punctata (CDPX) have been noted. This strategy should be applicable to the fine mapping of other dominant murine mutations. 相似文献

X-linked nonspecific mental retardation (MRX) has a frequency of 0.15% in the male population and is caused by defects in several different genes on the human X chromosome. Genotype-phenotype correlations in male patients with a partial nullisomy of the X chromosome have suggested that at least one locus involved in MRX is on Xp22.3. Previous deletion mapping has shown that this gene resides between markers DXS1060 and DXS1139, a region encompassing approximately 1.5 Mb of DNA. Analyzing the DNA of 15 males with Xp deletions, we were able to narrow this MRX critical interval to approximately 15 kb of DNA. Only one gene, VCX-A (variably charged, X chromosome mRNA on CRI-S232A), was shown to reside in this interval. Because of a variable number of tandem 30-bp repeats in the VCX-A gene, the size of the predicted protein is 186-226 amino acids. VCX-A belongs to a gene family containing at least four nearly identical paralogues on Xp22.3 (VCX-A, -B, -B1, and -C) and two on Yq11.2 (VCY-D, VCY-E), suggesting that the X and Y copies were created by duplication events. We have found that VCX-A is retained in all patients with normal intelligence and is deleted in all patients with mental retardation. There is no correlation between the presence or absence of VCX-B1, -B, and VCX-C and mental status in our patients. These results suggest that VCX-A is sufficient to maintain normal mental development. 相似文献

Summary We describe two brothers with identical inherited deletions of one single exon within the middle of the DMD gene; one brother has Becker muscular dystrophy diagnosed at 11 years of age, whereas the older brother is normal at 18. These results have implications for genetic counselling and prenatal diagnosis in families with Becker muscular dystrophy. 相似文献

X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata (CDPX2) is a skeletal dysplasia characterized by stippled epiphyses, cataracts, alopecia and skin lesions, including ichthyosis. CDPX2 exhibits a number of perplexing clinical features, such as intra- and inter-familial variation, anticipation, incomplete penetrance and possible gonadal and somatic mosaicism. Recently, mutations in the gene encoding Delta8,Delta7 sterol isomerase/emopamil-binding protein (EBP) have been identified in CDPX2. To better understand the genetics of CDPX2, we examined the entire EBP gene by direct sequencing in four CDPX2 patients. We found EBP mutations in all four patients, including three novel mutations: IVS3+1G>A, Y165C and W82C. Surprisingly, a known mutation (R147H) was identified in a patient and her clinically unaffected mother. Expression analysis revealed the mutant allele was predominantly expressed in the patient, while both alleles were expressed in the mother. Methylation analysis revealed that the wild-type allele was predominantly inactivated in the patient, while the mutated allele was predominantly inactivated in her mother. Thus, differences in expression of the mutated allele caused by skewed X-chromosome inactivation produced the diverse phenotypes within the family. Our findings could explain some of the perplexing features of CDPX2. The possibility that an apparently normal parent is a carrier should be considered when examining seemingly sporadic cases and providing genetic counseling to CDPX2 families. 相似文献

Deficiency in the PTS2 protein import pathway due to mutations in PEX7 gene results in the rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP) type 1. In the present study, we have reported a novel missense mutation, W75R, in the PEX7 gene in an Iranian patient with the RCDP type 1. The inability of PEX7 protein to transport PTS2 containing proteins including peroxisomal 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase and PTS2-EGFP protein to the surface of the peroxisomes showed that the W75R mutation in PEX7 gene severely impaired the function of PEX7 protein and was responsible for RCDP type 1 in this patient. 相似文献

Congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) is a nonprogressive retinal disorder characterized by night blindness, nystagmus,
myopia, a variable decrease in visual acuity, an abnormal electroretinographic response, and a disturbance in dark adaptation.
Two forms of X-linked CSNB have been defined, complete CSNB in which rod function is extinguished, and incomplete CSNB in
which rod function is reduced but not extinguished, as seen by electroretinography and dark adaptometry. In studying a large
family of Mennonite ancestry, we have confirmed linkage between the locus (CSNB2) for incomplete CSNB and genetic markers
in the Xp11 region. In particular, lod scores of 12.25 and 15.26 at zero recombination were observed between CSNB2 and the
markers DXS573 and DXS255. Detailed analysis of critical recombinant chromosomes in this extended family have refined the
minimal region for the CSNB2 locus to the interval between DXS6849 and DXS8023 in Xp11.23.

The X-linked recessive type of retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP) causes progressive night blindness, visual field constriction, and eventual blindness in affected males by the third or fourth decade of life. The biochemical basis of the disease is unknown, and prenatal diagnosis and definitive carrier diagnosis remain elusive. Heterogeneity in XLRP has been suggested by linkage studies of families affected with XLRP and by phenotypic differences observed in female carriers. Localization of XLRP near Xp11.3 has been suggested by close linkage to an RFLP at the locus DXS7 (Xp11.3) detected by probe L1.28. In other studies a locus for XLRP with metallic sheen has been linked to the ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) locus mapping to the Xp21 region. In this study, by linkage analysis using seven RFLP markers between Xp21 and Xcen, we examined four families with multiple affected individuals. Close linkage was found between XLRP and polymorphic sites OTC (theta = .06 with lod 5.69), DXS84 (theta = .05 with lod 4.08), and DXS206 (theta = .06 with lod 2.56), defined by probes OTC, 754, and XJ, respectively. The close linkage of OTC, 754, and XJ to XLRP localizes the XLRP locus to the Xp21 region. Data from recombinations in three of four families place the locus above L1.28 and below the Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) gene, consistent with an Xp21 localization. In one family, however, one affected male revealed a crossover between XLRP and all DNA markers, except for the more distal DXS28 (C7), while his brother is recombined for this marker (C7) and not other, more proximal markers. This suggests that in this family the XLRP mutation maps near DXS28 and above the DMD locus. 相似文献

X-linked hydrocephalus (HSAS) is the most common form of inherited hydrocephalus characterized by hydrocephalus due to stenosis of the aqueduct of Sylvius, mental retardation, clasped thumbs, and spastic paraparesis. MASA syndrome (mental retardation, aphasia, shuffling gait and adducted thumbs) and SPG1 (X-linked complicated spastic paraplegia) are also X-linked disorders with overlapping clinical signs. Linkage analysis studies implicated the neural cell adhesion molecule L1 (LICAM) gene as a candidate gene for these X-linked disorders. This genetic study analyzes the LICAM gene in a Japanese family with members suffering from HSAS, and describes a deletion of five nucleotides in exon 8. Screening byBg1I digestion of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products revealed that two siblings have the same mutation and a sister was identified as a heterozygous carrier. The 5 nucleotide deletion causes a shift of the reading frame and introduces a premature stop codon 72 nucleotides downstream, which might result in a truncated protein. The mutation identified herein is a novel L1 CAM mutation, which triggers hydrocephalus. We report a unique LlCAM mutation that causes HSAS: the first report of such a mutation in a Japanese family. 相似文献

Congenital nystagmus (CN) is a common oculomotor disorder (frequency of 1/1,500 live births) characterized by bilateral uncontrollable ocular oscillations, with onset typically at birth or within the first few months of life. This condition is regarded as idiopathic, after exclusion of nervous and ocular diseases. X-linked, autosomal dominant, and autosomal recessive modes of inheritance have been reported, but X-linked inheritance is probably the most common. In this article, we report the mapping of a gene for X-linked dominant CN (NYS1) to the short arm of chromosome X, by showing close linkage of NYS1 to polymorphic markers on chromosome Xp11.4-p11.3 (maximum LOD score of 3.20, over locus DXS993). Because no candidate gene, by virtue of its function, has been found in this region of chromosome Xp, further studies are required, to reduce the genetic interval encompassing the NYS1 gene. It is hoped that the complete gene characterization will address the complex pathophysiology of CN. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to identify the chromosomal location of the disease-causing gene in a family apparently segregating X-linked optic atrophy. A large family of 45 individuals with a four-generation history of X-linked optic atrophy was reexamined in a full ophthalmic as well as electrophysiological examination. A DNA linkage analysis of the family was undertaken in order to identify the chromosomal location of the disease-causing gene. Linkage analysis was performed with 26 markers that spanned the entire X chromosome. The affected males showed very early onset and slow progression of the disease. Ophthalmic study of the female carriers did not reveal any abnormalities. Close linkage without recombination was found at the MAOB locus (maximum LOD score [Zmax] 4.19). The Zmax - 1 support interval was found at a recombination fraction of .076 distal and .018 proximal to MAOB. Multipoint linkage analysis placed the optic atrophy-causing gene in the Xp11.4-p11.21 interval between markers DXS993 and DXS991, whereas any other localization along the X chromosome could be excluded. 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a hereditary bone disease characterized by decreased bone density and multiple fractures, usually inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Several gene encoding proteins related to collagen metabolism have been described in some cases of autosomal recessive OI (including CRTAP, LEPRE1, PPIB, FKBP65, SERPINF1, BMP1, WNT1, FKBP10). Recently, TMEM38B, a gene that encodes TRIC-B, a monovalent cation-specific channel involved in calcium flux from intracellular stores and in cell differentiation, has been associated with autosomal recessive OI. Here, we describe the second deletion-mutation involving the TMEM38B gene in an 11 year-old Albanian female with a clinical phenotype of OI, born to parents with suspected consanguinity. SNP array analysis revealed a homozygous region larger than 2 Mb that overlapped with the TMEM38B locus and was characterized by a 35 kb homozygous deletion involving exons 1 and 2 of TMEM38B gene. 相似文献
