Genotypic effect of a mutation of the MYBPC3 gene and two phenotypes with different patterns of inheritance.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:MYBPC3 mutations have been described in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). A mutation, c.3373G>A, has been reported to cause autosomal recessive form of HCM. Here, we report that this mutation can cause autosomal dominant form of DCM. METHODS:Next-generation sequencing using targeted panel of a total of 23 candidate genes and following Sanger sequencing was applied to detect causal mutations of DCM. Computational analyses were also performed using available software tools. In silico structural and functional analyses including protein modeling and prediction were done for the mutated MYBPC3 protein. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Targeted sequencing showed one variant c.3373G>A (p.Val1125Met) in the studied family following autosomal dominant inheritance. Computational programs predicted a high score of pathogenicity. Secondary structure of the region surrounding p.Val1125 was changed to a shortened beta-strand based on prediction of I-TASSER and Phyre2 servers with high confidence value for the mutation. cMyBP-C protein was modeled to 3dmkA. Our findings suggest that one single mutation of MYBPC3 may have different effects on the cellular mechanisms based of its zygosity. Various factors might be considered for explaining this phenomenon. This gene may have an important role in Iranian DCM and HCM patients.

Project description:ObjectivesBy analyzing the different phenotypes of two Chinese DFNA9 families with the same mutation located in the intervening region between the LCCL and vWFA domains of cochlin and testing the functional changes in the mutant cochlin, we investigated the different pathogeneses for mutations in LCCL and vWFA domains.MethodsTargeted next-generation sequencing for deafness-related genes was used to identify the mutation in the proband in family #208. The probands of family #208 and family #32 with the same p.C162Y mutation were followed for more than 3 years to evaluate the progression of hearing loss and vestibular dysfunction using pure-tone audiometry, caloric testing, electrocochleogram, vestibular-evoked myogenic potential, and video head-impulse test. The disruption of normal cleavage to produce secreted LCCL domain fragments and the tendency to form aggregations of mutant cochlins were tested by in vitro cell experiments.ResultsThe two families showed different clinical symptoms. Family #32 was identified as having early-onset, progressive sensorineural hearing loss, similar to the symptoms in DFNA9 patients with cochlin mutations in the vWFA domain. The proband of family #208 endured late-onset recurrent paroxysmal vertigo attacks and progressively deteriorating hearing, similar to symptoms in those with cochlin mutations in the LCCL domain. We therefore suggest that the disrupted cleavage of the LCCL domain fragment is likely to cause vestibular dysfunction, and aggregation of mutant cochlin caused by mutations in the vWFA domain is responsible for early-onset hearing loss. The p.C162Y mutation causes either disruption of LCCL domain fragment cleavage or aggregation of mutant cochlin, resulting in the different phenotypes in the two families.ConclusionThis study demonstrates that DFNA9 families with the same genotype may have significantly different phenotypes. The mutation site in cochlin is related to the pathological mechanism underlying the different phenotypes.

Project description:Abnormalities in motor sequence learning have been observed in non-manifesting carriers of the DYT1 dystonia mutation. Indeed, motor sequence learning deficits in these subjects have been associated with increased cerebellar activation during task performance. In the current study, we determined whether similar changes are also present in clinically manifesting DYT1 carriers as well as in carriers of other primary dystonia mutations such as DYT6. Additionally, we determined whether sequence learning performance and associated brain activation in these subjects correlate with previously described genotype-related abnormalities of cerebellar pathway integrity and striatal D2 dopamine receptor binding. Nineteen DYT1 carriers (10 non-manifesting DYT1: 51.5±15.1 years; nine manifesting DYT1: 46.1±15.1 years) and 12 healthy control subjects (42.8±15.3 years) were scanned with H2(15)O positron emission tomography while performing controlled sequence learning and reference tasks. Eleven DYT6 carriers (four non-manifesting DYT6: 38.0±22.1; seven manifesting DYT6: 35.3±14.2 years) were evaluated during task performance without concurrent imaging. DYT1 and DYT6 carriers also underwent diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging for the assessment of tract integrity and 11C-raclopride positron emission tomography to measure caudate/putamen D2 receptor binding. These imaging measures were correlated with sequence learning performance and associated activation responses. Sequence learning deficits of similar magnitude were observed in manifesting and non-manifesting DYT1 carriers. In contrast, learning deficits were not detected in DYT6 carriers, irrespective of clinical penetrance. Affected DYT1 carriers exhibited significant increases in sequence learning-related activation in the left lateral cerebellar cortex and in the right premotor and inferior parietal regions. Increases in premotor cortical activation observed in the mutation carriers correlated with reductions in cerebellar pathway integrity measured using magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging and probabilistic tractography. Additionally, the cerebellar tract changes correlated with reductions in dentate nucleus activation recorded during task performance. Sequence learning performance and task-related activation responses did not correlate with striatal D2 receptor binding. In summary, we found that sequence learning deficits and concomitant increases in cerebellar activation are specific features of the DYT1 genotype. The close relationship between reduced cerebellar pathway integrity and increased learning-related activation of the premotor cortex is compatible with the view of DYT1 dystonia as a neurodevelopmental circuit disorder.
