Heterozygous deletion of the linked genes ZIC1 and ZIC4 is involved in Dandy-Walker malformation 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Dandy-Walker malformation (DWM; OMIM #220200) is a common but poorly understood congenital cerebellar malformation in humans. Through physical mapping of 3q2 interstitial deletions in several individuals with DWM, we defined the first critical region associated with DWM, encompassing two adjacent Zinc finger in cerebellum genes, ZIC1 and ZIC4. Mice with a heterozygous deletion of these two linked genes have a phenotype that closely resembles DWM, providing a mouse model for this malformation. 相似文献

Complement factor 5 is a quantitative trait gene that modifies liver fibrogenesis in mice and humans
Hillebrandt S Wasmuth HE Weiskirchen R Hellerbrand C Keppeler H Werth A Schirin-Sokhan R Wilkens G Geier A Lorenzen J Köhl J Gressner AM Matern S Lammert F 《Nature genetics》2005,37(8):835-843
Fibrogenesis or scarring of the liver is a common consequence of all chronic liver diseases. Here we refine a quantitative trait locus that confers susceptibility to hepatic fibrosis by in silico mapping and show, using congenic mice and transgenesis with recombined artificial chromosomes, that the gene Hc (encoding complement factor C5) underlies this locus. Small molecule inhibitors of the C5a receptor had antifibrotic effects in vivo, and common haplotype-tagging polymorphisms of the human gene C5 were associated with advanced fibrosis in chronic hepatitis C virus infection. Thus, the mouse quantitative trait gene led to the identification of an unknown gene underlying human susceptibility to liver fibrosis, supporting the idea that C5 has a causal role in fibrogenesis across species. 相似文献

Mutations in DNMT1 cause hereditary sensory neuropathy with dementia and hearing loss 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Klein CJ Botuyan MV Wu Y Ward CJ Nicholson GA Hammans S Hojo K Yamanishi H Karpf AR Wallace DC Simon M Lander C Boardman LA Cunningham JM Smith GE Litchy WJ Boes B Atkinson EJ Middha S B Dyck PJ Parisi JE Mer G Smith DI Dyck PJ 《Nature genetics》2011,43(6):595-600
DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) is crucial for maintenance of methylation, gene regulation and chromatin stability. DNA mismatch repair, cell cycle regulation in post-mitotic neurons and neurogenesis are influenced by DNA methylation. Here we show that mutations in DNMT1 cause both central and peripheral neurodegeneration in one form of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy with dementia and hearing loss. Exome sequencing led to the identification of DNMT1 mutation c.1484A>G (p.Tyr495Cys) in two American kindreds and one Japanese kindred and a triple nucleotide change, c.1470-1472TCC>ATA (p.Asp490Glu-Pro491Tyr), in one European kindred. All mutations are within the targeting-sequence domain of DNMT1. These mutations cause premature degradation of mutant proteins, reduced methyltransferase activity and impaired heterochromatin binding during the G2 cell cycle phase leading to global hypomethylation and site-specific hypermethylation. Our study shows that DNMT1 mutations cause the aberrant methylation implicated in complex pathogenesis. The discovered DNMT1 mutations provide a new framework for the study of neurodegenerative diseases. 相似文献

Atp6i-deficient mice exhibit severe osteopetrosis due to loss of osteoclast-mediated extracellular acidification 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23
Solubilization of bone mineral by osteoclasts depends on the formation of an acidic extracellular compartment through the action of a V-proton pump that has not yet been characterized at the molecular level. We previously cloned a gene (Atp6i, for V-proton pump, H+ transporting (vacuolar proton pump) member I) encoding a putative osteoclast-specific proton pump subunit, termed OC-116kD (ref. 4). Here we show that targeted disruption of Atp6i in mice results in severe osteopetrosis. Atp6i-/- osteoclast-like cells (OCLs) lose the function of extracellular acidification, but retain intracellular lysosomal proton pump activity. The pH in Atp6i-/- liver lysosomes and proton transport in microsomes of Atp6i-/- kidney are identical to that in wild-type mice. Atp6i-/- mice exhibit a normal acid-base balance in blood and urine. Our results demonstrate that Atp6i is unique and necessary for osteoclast-mediated extracellular acidification. 相似文献

Mutations in COL11A2 cause non-syndromic hearing loss (DFNA13) 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
McGuirt WT Prasad SD Griffith AJ Kunst HP Green GE Shpargel KB Runge C Huybrechts C Mueller RF Lynch E King MC Brunner HG Cremers CW Takanosu M Li SW Arita M Mayne R Prockop DJ Van Camp G Smith RJ 《Nature genetics》1999,23(4):413-419
We report that mutation of COL11A2 causes deafness previously mapped to the DFNA13 locus on chromosome 6p. We found two families (one American and one Dutch) with autosomal dominant, non-syndromic hearing loss to have mutations in COL11A2 that are predicted to affect the triple-helix domain of the collagen protein. In both families, deafness is non-progressive and predominantly affects middle frequencies. Mice with a targeted disruption of Col11a2 also were shown to have hearing loss. Electron microscopy of the tectorial membrane of these mice revealed loss of organization of the collagen fibrils. Our findings revealed a unique ultrastructural malformation of inner-ear architecture associated with non-syndromic hearing loss, and suggest that tectorial membrane abnormalities may be one aetiology of sensorineural hearing loss primarily affecting the mid-frequencies. 相似文献

We used an exome-sequencing strategy and identified an allelic series of NOTCH2 mutations in Hajdu-Cheney syndrome, an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder characterized by severe and progressive bone loss. The Hajdu-Cheney syndrome mutations are predicted to lead to the premature truncation of NOTCH2 with either disruption or loss of the C-terminal proline-glutamate-serine-threonine-rich proteolytic recognition sequence, the absence of which has previously been shown to increase Notch signaling. 相似文献

Missense mutations in MIP underlie autosomal dominant 'polymorphic' and lamellar cataracts linked to 12q 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24
Human inherited cataract is both clinically diverse and genetically heterogeneous. Here we report the identification of the first mutations affecting the major intrinsic protein of the lens, MIP, encoded by the gene MIP on 12q14. MIP is a member of the aquaporin family of membrane-bound water channels. The mutations identified are predicted to disturb water flux across the lens cell membrane. 相似文献

Glaucomas are a major cause of blindness. Visual loss typically involves retinal ganglion cell death and optic nerve atrophy subsequent to a pathologic elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP). Some human glaucomas are associated with anterior segment abnormalities such as pigment dispersion syndrome (PDS) and iris atrophy with associated synechiae. The primary causes of these abnormalities are unknown, and their aetiology is poorly understood. We recently characterized a mouse strain (DBA/2J) that develops glaucoma subsequent to anterior segment changes including pigment dispersion and iris atrophy. Using crosses between mouse strains DBA/2J (D2) and C57BL/6J (B6), we now show there are two chromosomal regions that contribute to the anterior segment changes and glaucoma. Progeny homozygous for the D2 allele of one locus on chromosome 6 (called ipd) develop an iris pigment dispersion phenotype similar to human PDS. ipd resides on a region of mouse chromosome 6 with conserved synteny to a region of human chromosome 7q that is associated with human PDS. Progeny homozygous for the D2 allele of a different locus on chromosome 4 (called isa) develop an iris stromal atrophy phenotype (ISA). The Tyrpl gene is a candidate for isa and likely causes ISA via a mechanism involving pigment production. Progeny homozygous for the D2 alleles of both ipd and isa develop an earlier onset and more severe disease involving pigment dispersion and iris stromal atrophy. 相似文献

Mutations in Rpe65 disrupt synthesis of the opsin chromophore ligand 11-cis-retinal and cause Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), a severe, early-onset retinal dystrophy. To test whether light-independent signaling by unliganded opsin causes the degeneration, we used Rpe65-null mice, a model of LCA. Dark-adapted Rpe65-/- mice behaved as if light adapted, exhibiting reduced circulating current, accelerated response turn-off, and diminished intracellular calcium. A genetic block of transducin signaling completely rescued degeneration irrespective of an elevated level of retinyl ester. These studies clearly show that activation of sensory transduction by unliganded opsin, and not the accumulation of retinyl esters, causes light-independent retinal degeneration in LCA. A similar mechanism may also be responsible for degeneration induced by vitamin A deprivation. 相似文献
