Computational Protein Phenotype Characterization of IL10RA Mutations Causative to Early Onset Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).

ABSTRACT: The deleterious amino acid substitution mutations in IL-10 receptor alpha gene are most frequently reported in several autoimmune diseases including early onset-inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Despite the important role of IL-10 RA in maintaining immune homeostasis, the specific structural and functional implications of these mutations on protein phenotype, stability, ligand binding and post translational characteristics is not well explored. Therefore, this study performed the multidimensional computational analysis of IL10RA missense variations causative to pediatric or early onset inflammatory bowel disease (<5 years of age). Our computational algorithmic screening identified the deleterious nature of p. W45G, p. Y57C, p. W69G, p.T84I, p.Y91C, p.R101W, p.R117C, and p.R117H, IBD causative IL10-RA mutations. The sensitivity and specificity analysis of different computational methods showed that CADD outperform SIFT, PolyPhen 2.0, FATHMM, LRT, MetaLR, MetaSVM, PROVEAN and Condel in predicting the pathogenicity of IL10RA mutations. Our three-dimensional protein modeling assays showed that the point mutations cause major drifts in the structural plasticity of IL10 RA molecule and negatively influence its stability. Findings from molecular docking analysis have shown that these point mutations decrease the binding affinity of IL10RA toward IL10 and may likely to disturb the IL10 signaling pathway. This study provides an easy frame work for phenotypic characterization of mutant IL10RA molecule in terms of structure, flexibility and stability aspects. Our approach may also add a new dimension to conventional functional biology assays in quickly studying IL10 RA mutations and also for designing and developing inhibitors for mutant IL10RA molecule.

Project description:PurposeReceptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) is an important regulator of necroptosis and inflammatory responses. We present the clinical features, genetic analysis and immune work-up of two patients with infantile-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) resulting from RIPK1 mutations.MethodsWhole exome and Sanger sequencing was performed in two IBD patients. Mass cytometry time of flight (CyTOF) was conducted for in-depth immunophenotyping on one of the patient's peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and compared to control subjects and patients with Crohn's disease.ResultsThe patients presented with severe colitis and perianal fistulas in the first months of life, without severe/atypical infections. Genetic studies identified pathogenic genetic variants in RIPK1 (Patient 1, A c.1934C>T missense mutation in Exon 11; Patient 2, c.580G>A missense mutation residing in Exon 4). Protein modeling demonstrated that the mutation in Patient 1 displaces a water molecule, potentially disrupting the local environment, and the mutation in Patient 2 may lead to disruption of the packing and conformation of the kinase domain. Immunofluorescence RIPK1 staining in rectal biopsies demonstrated no expression for Patient 1 and minimal expression for Patient 2, compared to controls and patients with active Crohn's disease. Using CyTOF unbiased clustering analysis, we identified peripheral immune dysregulation in one of these patients, characterized by an increase in IFNγ CD8+ T cells along with a decrease in monocytes, dendritic cells and B cells. Moreover, RIPK1-deficient patient's immune cells exhibited decreased IL-6 production in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) across multiple cell types including T cells, B cells and innate immune cells.ConclusionsMutations in RIPK1 should be considered in very young patients presenting with colitis and perianal fistulas. Given RIPK1's role in inflammasome activation, but also in epithelial cells, it is unclear whether IL1 blockade or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can suppress or cure the hyper-inflammatory response in these patients. Additional studies in humans are required to better define the role of RIPK1 in regulating intestinal immune responses, and how treatment can be optimized for patients with RIPK1 deficiency.
