Abstract: | The dominant negative effect of mutations is rare in metabolic diseases and its mechanism has not been studied much. Hypophosphatasia, a bone inherited metabolic disorder, is a good model because the disease can be dominantly transmitted. The gene product activity depends on a homodimeric configuration and many mutations have been reported in the ALPL gene responsible for the disease. Using CFP/YFP-tagged-TNSALP plasmids, transfections in COS cells and confocal fluorescence analyses, we studied the point mutation G232V (c.746G>T). We showed that the G232V protein sequestrates some of the wild-type protein into the cells and prevents it from reaching the membrane where it plays its physiological role. A. S. Lia-Baldini and I. Brun-Heath equally contributed to this work. |
