Interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein-like 1 (IL1RAPL1) is associated with X-linked mental retardation and autism spectrum disorder. We found that IL1RAPL1 regulates synapse formation of cortical neurons. To investigate how IL1RAPL1 controls synapse formation, we here screened IL1RAPL1-interacting proteins by affinity chromatography and mass spectroscopy. IL1RAPL1 interacted with Mcf2-like (Mcf2l), a Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor, through the cytoplasmic Toll/IL-1 receptor domain. Knockdown of endogenous Mcf2l and treatment with an inhibitor of Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK), the downstream kinase of RhoA, suppressed IL1RAPL1-induced excitatory synapse formation of cortical neurons. Furthermore, we found that the expression of IL1RAPL1 affected the turnover of AMPA receptor subunits. Insertion of GluA1-containing AMPA receptors to the cell surface was decreased, whereas that of AMPA receptors composed of GluA2/3 was enhanced. Mcf2l knockdown and ROCK inhibitor treatment diminished the IL1RAPL1-induced changes of AMPA receptor subunit insertions. Our results suggest that Mcf2l-RhoA-ROCK signaling pathway mediates IL1RAPL1-dependent formation and stabilization of glutamatergic synapses of cortical neurons. 相似文献

Since the first observation that described a patient with a mutation in IL1RAPL1 gene associated with intellectual disability in 1999, the function of IL1RAPL1 has been extensively studied by a number of laboratories. In this review, we summarize all the major data describing the synaptic and neuronal functions of IL1RAPL1 and recapitulate most of the genetic deletion identified in humans and associated to intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). All the data clearly demonstrate that IL1RAPL1 is a synaptic adhesion molecule localized at the postsynaptic membrane. Mutations in IL1RAPL1 gene cause either the absence of the protein or the production of a dysfunctional protein. More recently it has been demonstrated that IL1RAPL1 regulated dendrite formation and mediates the activity of IL‐1β on dendrite morphology. All these data will possibly contribute to identifying therapies for patients carrying mutations in IL1RAPL1 gene. 相似文献

Large deletions in Xq21 often are associated with contiguous gene syndromes consisting of X-linked deafness type 3 (DFN3), mental retardation (MRX), and choroideremia (CHM). The identification of deletions associated with classic CHM or DFN3 facilitated the positional cloning of the underlying genes, REP-1 and POU3F4, respectively, and enabled the positioning of the MRX gene in between these genes. Here, we report the cloning and characterization of a novel gene, ribosomal S6-kinase 4 (RSK4; HGMW-approved symbol RPS6KA6), which maps in the MRX critical region. RSK4 is completely deleted in eight patients with the contiguous gene syndrome including MRX, partially deleted in a patient with DFN3 and present in patients with an Xq21 deletion and normal intellectual abilities. RSK4 is most abundantly expressed in brain and kidney. The predicted protein of 746 amino acids shows a high level of homology to three previously isolated members of the human RSK family. RSK2 is involved in Coffin-Lowry syndrome and nonspecific MRX. The localization of RSK4 in the interval that is commonly deleted in mentally retarded males together with the high degree of amino acid identity with RSK2 suggests that RSK4 plays a role in normal neuronal development. Further mutation analyses in males with X-linked mental retardation must prove that RSK4 is indeed a novel MRX gene. 相似文献

Non-specific mental retardation (NSMR) is one of common children psychiatric diseases with a high prevalence (1–3%). Here we investigated the association between the genetic variants of IL1RAPL2 gene and NSMR in the children of QinBa region of China. We chose five common SNPs of IL1RAPL2, examined their individual genotype frequencies using the conventional polymerase chain reaction single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) method, and evaluated the association between these genetic polymorphisms and NSMR with the suitable biostatistic software. The allele and genotype distributions of two SNPs (rs5962298 and rs9887672) showed significant differences between the control and NSMR groups (allele: p = 0.020 and 0.017; genotype: p = 0.025 for rs9887672 respectively). The distribution differences became more significant in girls, but disappeared in boys, suggesting a gender effect. Taken together, we provide substantial evidence that IL1RAPL2 conferred a NSMR susceptibility to children of Qinba region in China. In future, further work should be carried out to scan mutations and to investigate the specific-gender effect in this gene. 相似文献

The Interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) and Toll signaling pathways share the evolutionarily conserved Toll homology domain (THD), which is a critical component in the signaling cascade of the host defense responses to infection and inflammation. Our initial genomic database searches uncovered a novel THD signature sequence between DNA markers DXS87 and DXS366. The feasibility of subsequently applying a coordinated computational approach, including various exon-finding programs, homology-based searches, and receptor profile searches, in revealing the exons encoding this novel IL-1R family member is described. IL-1R9 shows restricted expression in fetal brain and is highly homologous to IL1RAPL (A. Carrie et al., 1999 Nat. Genet. 23: 25-31), which is reportedly involved in nonsyndromic X-linked mental retardation. These genes are scattered over separate genomic intervals in excess of 1.0 Mb and encode receptors with extended C-terminal tails. In our functional NF-kappaB reporter assays, IL1RAPL, IL-1R9, or versions lacking the extended C-terminal sequences failed in responding either to IL-1 directly or to IL-18 when various permutations of IL-18R ectodomain chimeras were fused to their cytoplasmic domains. Evolutionary sequence analyses reinforce our conclusion that these novel orphan receptors probably form a functionally distinct subset of the IL-1R superfamily. 相似文献

We have recently shown that mutations in oligophrenin-1 (OPHN1) are responsible for non-specific X-linked mental retardation (MRX). The structure of the gene encoding the OPHN1 protein was determined by isolation of genomic DNA clones from the human cosmid library. Genomic fragments containing exons were sequenced, and the sequences of the exons and flanking introns were defined. Knowledge of the genomic structure of the OPHN1 gene, which spans at least 500 kb and consists of 25 exons, will facilitate the search for additional mutations in OPHN1. OPHN1 was screened for mutations in 164 subjects with non-specific mental retardation. Three nucleotide substitutions were identified, one of which was a silent mutation in the codon threonine 301 at position 903 (G-->C). The other substitutions were located in exon 2, a G-->A substitution at position 133 (A45T), and in exon 10, a C-->T substitution at position 902 (T301M), but these are common polymorphisms rather than disease-causing mutations. 相似文献

Teneurins are a novel family of transmembrane proteins conserved between invertebrates and vertebrates. There are two members in Drosophila, one in C. elegans and four members in mouse. Here, we describe the analysis of the genomic structure of the human teneurin-1 gene. The entire human teneurin-1 (TEN1) gene is contained in eight PAC clones representing part of the chromosomal locus Xq25. Interestingly, many X-linked mental retardation syndromes (XLMR) and non-specific mental retardation (MRX) are mapped to this region. The location of the human TEN1 together with the neuronal expression makes TEN1 a candidate gene for XLMR and MRX. We also identified large parts of the human teneurin-2 sequence on chromosome 5 and sections of human teneurin-4 at chromosomal position 11q14. Database searches resulted in the identification of ESTs encoding parts of all four human members of the teneurin family. Analysis of the genomic organization of the Drosophila ten-a gene revealed the presence of exons encoding a long form of ten-a, which can be aligned with all other teneurins known. Sequence comparison and phylogenetic trees of teneurins show that insects and vertebrates diverged before the teneurin ancestor was duplicated independently in the two phyla. This is supported by the presence of conserved intron positions between teneurin genes of man, Drosophila and C. elegans. It is therefore not possible to class any of the vertebrate teneurins with either Drosophila Ten-a or Ten-m. The C-terminal part of all teneurins harbours 26 repetitive sequence motifs termed YD-repeats. YD-repeats are most similar to the repeats encoded by the core of the rearrangement hot spot (rhs) elements of Escherichia coli. This makes the teneurin ancestor a candidate gene for the source of the rhs core acquired by horizontal gene transfer. 相似文献
