Mutational Analysis and Genotype Investigation of Less Known Gaucher Mutations through Haplotype Analysis in Iranian Gaucher patients
Authors
Abstract:
Gaucher's disease (GD) is the most frequent lysosomal storage disorder resulting from a deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GBA) which causes the accumulation of glucocerebroside. More than 500 mutations have been reported on the GBA gene so far. In this study, we aimed to investigate more on the genotype of less known mutations through haplotype analysis to explain their disease-causing inheritance. Eight patients and three carriers from nine different families were enrolled in the study. DNA sequencing of all GBA gene’s exons was performed and pathogenicity of the mutations was investigated. Using GBA gene-linked STR markers, allele segregations were determined in some families. A total of six different mutations were determined. Five and three patients were identified to carry mutations in homozygote and compound heterozygote patterns respectively, three participants also were identified as carriers. The most prevalent mutations were c.1448 T>C and RecNcil, however, three less common mutations were identified (i.e., c.1223 C>T, c.1315 A>G, and c.1214 G>C). In conclusion, we evaluated six different mutations in Iranian patients and elucidated the inheritance of the three less-known mutations by linkage analysis.

Mutations in Jewish patients with Gaucher disease.
DNA from 100 unrelated patients, 97 of whom were Jewish and three half-Jewish, was analyzed for 22 mutations known to cause Gaucher disease. All but seven of the alleles were identified as having previously described mutations. Five of the unidentified mutations proved to be a previously undescribed nucleotide substitution in a splice junction (IVS2+1) that causes skipping of exon 2. Thus, only...

BACKGROUND Thirty-six mutations that cause Gaucher disease, the most common glycolipid storage disorder, are known. Although both alleles of most patients with the disease contain one of these mutations, in a few patients one or both disease-producing alleles have remained unidentified. Identification of mutations in these patients is useful for genetic counseling. MATERIALS AND METHODS The D...

Objective(s): Mucopolysaccharidosis VI (MPS VI) or Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome is a rare metabolic disorder, resulting from the deficient activity of the lysosomal enzyme arylsulfatase B (ARSB). The enzymatic defect of ARSB leads to progressive lysosomal storage disorder and accumulation of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) dermatan sulfate (DS), which causes harmful effects on various organs and tissues an...
