Identified Mutation |
2-BP DEL, 3665TC; In 8 of 9 pedigrees with ML II (252500) and 5 of 7 with ML IIIA (252600), Kudo et al. (Am J Hum Genet 78:451-463, 2006) identified a frameshift mutation in the GNPTAB gene consisting of deletion of 2 nucleotides (3665_3666delTC) beginning at leu1168 and leading to premature termination at amino acid 1172 (L1168fsX1172). This mutation was the most frequent in their study and was found in both the homozygous and compound heterozygous state, in combination with severe mutations (i.e., mutations preventing the generation of active enzyme) in ML II and with mild mutations (i.e., mutations allowing the generation of active enzyme) in ML IIIA. |
Remarks |
Similarly affected sister; deficient fibroblast B-hexosaminidase, B-galactosidase, B-glucuronidase, A-fucosidase, A-galactosidase, A-mannosidase, and GLcNAc phosphotransferase activity; complementation group A; GlcNAc-Phosphotransferase activity = 0.8% (measured as specific activity in cell lysate and reported as percentage of activity in normal fibroblasts); donor subject is a compound heterozygote: one allele has an A>T transversion in exon 5 of the GNPTAB gene [733A>T] resulting in mRNA with a 4-bp deletion causing a frameshift at the 3'-end of the exon 5 sequence [D190fsX211] and a second allele has a 2-bp deletion in exon 19 of the GNPTAB gene [3665_3666delTC] resulting in a frameshift and truncation of the protein in the beta subunit [L1168fsX1172]. |
