摘要
目的研究Hunter综合征患者的艾杜糖-2-硫酸酯酶(iduronate-2-sulfatase,IDS)基因的突变情况,为产前基因诊断等打下基础。方法应用尿粘多糖含量检测、聚合酶链反应-变性高效液相色谱(poly-merase chain reaction-denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography,PCR-DHPLC)分析对1例Hunter综合征患者及其父母的IDS基因的突变热点第9、3、8外显子进行突变检测,并对PCR-DHPLC检出的突变样品进行直接测序。结果经PCR-DHPLC分析发现该患者的IDS基因第9外显子有明显异常峰形;DNA序列分析进一步发现该外显子发生一新的移码突变,突变部位在第482位密码子(TTA)内,即cDNA第1569bp的T后插入了2个T,致使新肽链提前在第483位遇上终止密码TAA,导致新肽链从原来的550个氨基酸缩短至482个。该患儿为这一突变的半合子,而其母为这一突变的杂合子。结论PCR-DHPLC和DNA序列分析是诊断Hunter综合征的有效方法,发现的移码突变(1569+TT)导致肽链比正常的少了68个氨基酸,从而引起IDS酶活性明显降低,可能是该Hunter综合征患者的致病原因。
Objective To identify the mutations of iduronate-2-sulfatase ( IDS ) gene, and to establish a basis of prenatal gene diagnosis of Hunter syndrome. Methods Urine glycosaminoglycan(GAG) assay was used to preliminary diagnosis of mucopolysaccharidosis. PCR-denaturing high-performance liquidchromatograptly(PCR-DHPLC) analysis was performed to detect the mutation in exons 9,3,8 of the IDS gene. DNA sequencing was applied to analyze the mutation detected by PCR-DHPLC. Results Abnormal peaks were found by PCR-DHPLC. A new frame-mutation ( 1569 + TT ) in exon 9 of lIDS gene was identified by DNA sequencing. Two "T" inserted in pesition 1569 base pair( 1569 + TT) caused a substitution of codon 482(TTA, leucine) to 482(TTT, phenylalanine) . The "TT" insertion results in the decrease of amino acids from 550 to 482. The patient is a hemizygote and his mother is a heterozygote. Conclusion A new frame-shift mutation of IDS gene is found to report. The mutation ( 1569 + TT) results in 68 amino acids lost. Probably it causes the enzyme activity seriously dropped down and being pathologically the basis of disease.
