Diverse functional properties of Wilson disease ATP7B variants.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Wilson disease is a severe disorder of copper metabolism caused by mutations in ATP7B, which encodes a copper-transporting adenosine triphosphatase. The disease presents with a variable phenotype that complicates the diagnostic process and treatment. Little is known about the mechanisms that contribute to the different phenotypes of the disease. METHODS We analyzed 28 varian...
متن کاملNovel mutations in ATP7B gene of Wilson\'s disease in Iranian patients
Bacground: Wilson's disease is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by toxic accumulation of copper in liver and brain. The disorder is caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene, encoding a copper transporting P-type ATPase. Characterization of the spectrum of mutations in this gene is important both for diagnosis and genetic counseling of the families. Materials and Methods: We enrol...
متن کاملCopper-dependent trafficking of Wilson disease mutant ATP7B proteins.
We have previously developed a functional assay in yeast for the copper transporter, ATP7B, defective in Wilson disease (WND). Analysis of WND variant ATP7B proteins revealed that several were able to completely, or nearly completely, complement a mutant yeast strain in which the ATP7B ortholog CCC2 was disrupted, indicating that these ATP7B proteins retained copper transport activity. We analy...
متن کاملExpression, purification, and metal binding properties of the N-terminal domain from the wilson disease putative copper-transporting ATPase (ATP7B).
The putative copper binding domain from the copper-transporting ATPase implicated in Wilson disease (ATP7B) has been expressed and purified as a fusion to glutathione S-transferase. Immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography revealed that the fusion protein is able to bind to columns charged with different transition metals with varying affinities as follows: Cu(II)>>Zn(II)>Ni(II)>Co(II). Th...
متن کاملSolution structures of the actuator domain of ATP7A and ATP7B, the Menkes and Wilson disease proteins.
ATP7A and ATP7B are two human P(1B)-type ATPases that have a crucial role in maintaining copper(I) homeostasis. Among the various domains of these enzymes, one, called the Actuator or A-domain, has a regulatory function and is required for the phosphatase step of the catalytic cycle (dephosphorylation of the intermediate formed during ATP hydrolysis). Here we report the solution structures of t...
