c.2204+6T>C (IVS20+6T>C); Slaugenhaupt et al. (2001) found that more than 99.5% of disease alleles causing familial dysautonomia (223900) in Ashkenazi Jewish individuals carried a donor splice site mutation (IVS20+6T-C) which leads to deletion of exon 20 from mRNA. Haplotype analyses were consistent with a common founder. Anderson et al. (2001) identified the same mutation in Ashkenazi Jewish patients with familial dysautonomia. |

Allelic Variant 1 |
606463.0003; GAUCHER DISEASE, TYPE I |
Identified Mutation |
ASN370SER; By nucleotide sequence analysis of a genomic clone from an Ashkenazi Jewish patient with type I, Tsuji et al. [Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 85: 2349-2352 (1988] found a single-base mutation (adenosine to guanosine transition) in exon 9 of the glucocerebrosidase gene. This change resulted in the amino acid substitution of serine for asparagine. Transient expression studies following oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis of the normal cDNA confirmed that the mutation results in loss of glucocerebrosidase activity. This mutation [1226G (N370S)] accounts for approximately 70% of mutations in the Jewish population. |

Allelic Variant 1 |
606869.0035; BETA-HEXOSAMINIDASE A, PSEUDODEFICIENCY OF |
Identified Mutation |
ARG247TRP; Triggs-Raine et al. (1992) identified a C-to-T transition at nucleotide 739, resulting in an arg247-to-trp substitution as the basis of pseudodeficiency of beta-hexosaminidase A. This allele accounted for 32% (20/62) of non-Jewish enzyme-defined Tay-Sachs disease carriers but for none of 36 Jewish enzyme-defined carriers who did not have one of the 3 known mutations common to the Jewish group. In combination with a 'true' Tay-Sachs disease allele, the arg247-to-trp allele causes HEXA pseudodeficiency. Given both the large proportion of non-Jewish carriers with this allele and the fact that standard biochemical screening cannot differentiate between heterozygotes for the arg247-to-trp mutation and Tay-Sachs disease carriers, DNA testing for this mutation in at-risk couples is essential. Contrary to the findings of Triggs-Raine et al. (1992) of no cases of the C739-to-T pseudodeficiency allele among Jewish carriers, Tomczak et al. (1993) found that of 33 carriers who had none of the 3 common mutations, the pseudodeficiency mutation was present in 6 of 19 Jews and 8 of 14 non-Jews. Tomczak et al. (1993) suggested that DNA analysis should be part of a comprehensive screening program because 2 mutant alleles, the pseudodeficiency allele and the adult allele, are indistinguishable from the lethal infantile mutations by means of enzyme assay yet have very different phenotypic significance and together may account for as many as 12% of enzyme-defined carriers.
