molecular detection and identification of α-l-iduronidase gene mutations in 5 iranian families suspected for muller syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis i)

چکیده
introduction: mucopolysaccharidosis i (mps-i) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage diseases, caused by α-l-iduronidase (idua) enzyme deficiency. the clinical manifestations of mps-i patients are variable ranging from severe to mild, and therefore prediction of disease severity is difficult. from when idua gene has been cloned more than 109 distinct mutations have been identified in it and this number is increasing. this mutation analysis has provided some molecular explanations for the range of mps-i phenotypes. the aim of this study was identification and molecular characterization of idua gene mutations in our subset of mps i patients. methods: the present study performed on 5 iranian families, each with a suspected child for mps-i. initially by using enzyme activity assay, the hurler syndrome was verified and then presence of l123r mutation was evaluated by pcr-sscp. finally by pcr amplification of all 14 exons of the gene, sscp and sequencing the mutations underlying the disease were identified and characterized. results: the detected mutations turned to be l123r (in 2 patients), w402x, p533r and g51d mutations in other 3 patients. discussion: l123r mutation, which was reported for the first time from our centre, was also present in 2 of the patients of this study but other 3 mutations were not novel. from our results, as well others, it can be concluded that the range of mutations in idua gene differ in different geographical areas. this should be considered when designing mutation detection strategies for mps-i.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) arises from a deficiency in the α-L-iduronidase (IDUA) enzyme. Although the clinical spectrum in MPS I patients is continuous, it was possible to recognize 3 phenotypes reflecting the severity of symptoms, viz., the Hurler, Scheie and Hurler/Scheie syndromes. In this study, 10 unrelated Chinese MPS I families (nine Hurler and one Hurler/Scheie) were investig...

متن کاملα-L-iduronidase therapy for mucopolysaccharidosis type I
More than 500 patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type IH (MPS IH; Hurler syndrome) have been treated with hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) throughout the world since the introduction of transplantation as therapy almost 30 years ago. More recently, the availability of recombinant alpha-L-iduronidase (IDUA) has resulted in the widespread treatment of less severe forms of MPS I with enzy...

BACKGROUND Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is an autosomal storage disease resulting from defective activity of the enzyme α-L-iduronidase (IDUA). This glycosidase is involved in the degradation of heparan sulfate and dermatan sulfate. MPS I has severe and milder phenotypic subtypes. AIM OF STUDY This study was carried out on six newly collected MPS I patients recruited from many regions...
متن کاملInsights into Mucopolysaccharidosis I from the structure and action of α-L-Iduronidase
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I), caused by mutations in the gene encoding α-L-iduronidase (IDUA), is one of approximately 70 genetic disorders collectively known as the lysosomal storage diseases. To gain insight into the basis for MPS I, we crystallized human IDUA produced in an Arabidopsis thaliana cgl mutant. IDUA consists of a TIM barrel domain containing the catalytic site, a β-sandwi...

PURPOSE To characterize the pathogenic mutations causing mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) in two Thai patients: one with Hurler syndrome (MPS IH), the most severe form, and the other with Scheie syndrome (MPS IS), the mildest. Both presented with distinctive phenotype including corneal clouding. METHODS The entire coding regions of the α-L-iduronidase (IDUA) gene were amplified by PCR and...
