A novel pathogenic mutation of the CYP27B1 gene in a patient with vitamin D-dependent rickets type 1: a case report.

ABSTRACT: Rickets can occur due to Vitamin D deficiency or defects in its metabolism. Three rare genetic types of rickets with different alterations of genes have been reported, including: Vitamin D dependent rickets type 1, Vitamin D dependent rickets type 2 or also known as Vitamin D resistant rickets and 25 hydroxylase deficiency rickets. Vitamin D dependent rickets type 1 is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, and is caused by mutations in the CYP27B1 gene encoding the 1?-hydroxylase enzyme. We report here a new mutation in CYP27B1, which lead to Vitamin D dependent rickets type 1.We report on a 13-month-old Arabic Saudi girl with Vitamin D dependent rickets type 1 presented with multiple fractures and classic features of rickets. A whole exome sequencing identified a novel pathogenic missense mutation (CYP27B1:Homozygous c.1510C > T(p.Q504X)) which results in a protein truncating alteration. Both parents are heterozygous carriers of the mutation. Based on data search in Human Gene Mutation Database, 63 CYP27B1 alterations were reported: only 28.6% are protein truncating (5 nonsense, 13 frameshift insertions/deletions, 0 gross deletions), while 61.9% are non-truncating (38 missense, 1 small in-frame insertions/deletion), and 9.5% are possible protein-truncating (5 splice, 1 regulatory).The deleterious effect of this alteration, which was the only mutation detected in the CYP27B1 common gene of Vitamin D dependent rickets type 1 in the proband, and its autosomal recessive inheritance fashion, both support a pathogenic nature of this mutation as the cause of Vitamin D dependent rickets type 1.

Project description:ContextVitamin D-dependent rickets type 1A (VDDR1A) is a rare autosomal recessively inherited disorder due to loss-of-function mutations in the CYP27B1 gene. CYP27B1 encodes an enzyme of 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1?-hydroxylase for converting inactive 25-OHD to biologically active 1,25-(OH)2D.ObjectiveTo identify underlying genetic defects in patients with VDDR1A.MethodsTwelve patients from 7 Turkish and 2 Saudi families were investigated. The coding exons and intron-exon boundaries of the CYP27B1 gene were amplified by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) from peripheral lymphocyte DNA. PCR products were directly sequenced. The consequences of c.590G > A mutation were analyzed by in silico and functional analysis.ResultsCYP27B1 mutations were identified in all the patients. Two novel mutations were identified in two separate families: c.171delG (family 7) and c.398_400dupAAT (family 8). The intra-exon deletion of c.171delG resulted in a frameshift and premature stop codon 20 amino acids downstream from the mutation (p.L58Cfs?20). The intra-exon duplication of c.398_400dupAAT generated a premature stop codon at the mutation site (p.W134?). A missense c.590G > A (p.G197D) mutation was found in a patient from family 4 and caused a defect in pre-mRNA splicing. As a result, two populations of transcripts were detected: the majority of them with intron 3 retention (83%), and the minority (17%) being properly spliced transcripts with about 16% of wild-type enzymatic activity. The remaining nine patients from six families carried a previously reported c.1319_1325dupCCCACCC (F443Pfs?24) mutation. Clinically, all the patients need continued calcitriol treatment, which was consistent with inactivation of 25-hydroxy vitamin D1?-hydroxylase activity.ConclusionTwo novel frameshift CYP27B1 mutations were identified and predicted to inactivate 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1?-hydroxylase. The loss of enzymatic activity by c.590G > A missense mutation was mainly caused by aberrant pre-mRNA splicing.
