Recombinant human iduronate-2-sulphatase: correction of mucopolysaccharidosis-type II fibroblasts and characterization of the purified enzyme.

ABSTRACT: Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II, Hunter syndrome) is an X-chromosome-linked recessive lysosomal storage disorder that results from a deficiency of iduronate-2-sulphatase (12S). Patients with MPS II store and excrete large amounts of partially degraded heparan sulphate and dermatan sulphate. In order to evaluate enzyme-replacement therapy for MPS II we have expressed a chimaeric I2S cDNA in CHO (Chinese-hamster ovary)-K1 cells utilizing a plasmid vector that places the cDNA under the transcriptional control of the human polypeptide-chain-elongation factor-1 alpha gene promoter. A clonal cell line that accumulated recombinant I2S at greater than 10 mg/ml in conditioned medium was identified. Enzyme secreted from this cell line grown in the presence of NH4Cl was shown to be endocytosed into MPS II fibroblasts via the mannose 6-phosphate receptor and localized to the lysosomal compartment, resulting in correction of the storage phenotype of these cells. Milligram quantities of the recombinant I2S were purified, and the enzyme was shown to have a pH optimum and kinetic parameters similar to those for the mature form of I2S purified from human liver. The recombinant I2S had a molecular mass of approx. 90 kDa; this was reduced to 60 kDa by endoglycosidase treatment.

Correction of human mucopolysaccharidosis type-VI fibroblasts with recombinant N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulphatase.

Project description:A full-length human N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulphatase (4-sulphatase) cDNA clone was constructed and expressed in CHO-DK1 cells under the transcriptional control of the Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat. A clonal cell line expressing high activities of human 4-sulphatase was isolated. The maturation and processing of the human enzyme in this transfected CHO cell line showed it to be identical with that seen in normal human skin fibroblasts. The high-uptake precursor form of the recombinant enzyme was purified from the medium of the transfected cells treated with NH4Cl and was shown to be efficiently endocytosed by control fibroblasts and by fibroblasts from a mucopolysaccharidosis type-VI (MPS VI) patient. Enzyme uptake was inhibitable by mannose 6-phosphate. After uptake, the enzyme was processed normally in both normal and MPS VI fibroblasts and was shown both to correct the enzymic defect and to initiate degradation of [35S]sulphated dermatan sulphate in MPS VI fibroblasts. The stabilities of the recombinant enzyme and enzyme from human fibroblasts appeared to be similar after uptake. However, endocytosed enzyme has a significantly shorter half-life than endogenous human enzyme. The purified precursor 4-sulphatase had a similar pH optimum and catalytic parameters to the mature form of 4-sulphatase isolated from human liver.

Recombinant alpha-L-iduronidase: characterization of the purified enzyme and correction of mucopolysaccharidosis type I fibroblasts.

Project description:Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I, Hurler and Scheie syndromes) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder that results from a deficiency of the hydrolase alpha-L-iduronidase (IDUA) which is involved in the lysosomal degradation of both heparan sulphate (HS) and dermatan sulphate (DS). Patients with MPS I store and excrete large amounts of partially degraded HS and DS. In order to evaluate enzyme replacement therapy for MPS I patients we have expressed human IDUA cDNA in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO)-K1 cells utilizing a plasmid vector that places the cDNA under the transcriptional control of the human polypeptide-chain-elongation factor I alpha gene promoter. A clonal cell-line that secreted recombinant IDUA in a precursor form at approximately 2.2 micrograms/10(6) cells per day was identified. This enzyme was shown to be endocytosed into cultured MPS I fibroblasts via mannose-6-phosphate receptors and to correct the storage phenotype of these cells by enabling the lysosomal-digestion of accumulated sulphated glycosaminoglycans. The recombinant IDUA had on SDS/PAGE a molecular mass of 85 kDa and was processed to 74 kDa and smaller forms following its uptake by fibroblasts. Milligram quantities of the recombinant IDUA were immunopurified and the enzyme was shown to have pH optimum and kinetic parameters differing from those of the mature enzyme purified from human liver. The specific activity of the recombinant enzyme was shown to increase on dilution and on incubation with reducing agents. This was in contrast to the mature IDUA form (74 kDa) which did not have its activity stimulated by reducing agents or dilution.

Molecular basis of iduronate-2-sulphatase gene mutations in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type II (Hunter syndrome).

Project description:Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (Hunter syndrome) is an X linked lysosomal storage disorder resulting from heterogeneous mutations in the iduronate-2-sulphatase (IDS) gene. To detect IDS gene mutations, direct sequencing of IDS cDNA fragments coupled with assays on IDS genomic amplicons was applied to 18 unrelated patients with MPS II. Seventeen mutations were detected from the 18 patients including seven missense mutations (S71R, A82E, A85T, R88C, R468W, R468Q, and E521V), five deletions (alphaR95, 383delAT, 596delAACA, 1148delC, and 1216delCT), two insertions (208insC and 1063insA), two splicing mutations (1006+5g-->c in intron 7, 1122C-->T in exon 8), and an intragenic deletion of IDS exons 4, 5, 6, and 7. Nine of the small mutations were novel mutations. Mutation 596del-AACA was detected in two unrelated patients. The mutation in intron 7 was found to cause aberrant splicing and resulted in a 22 bp insertion into its mRNA transcript. The intragenic deleted IDS gene expressed two aberrant mRNA transcripts consisting of exons 1-2-8-9 and 3-8-9. Analysis of mutations A85T, R88C, R468Q, R468W, and 438C/T found no polymorphism for the four missense mutations but about 36% heterozygosity for the 438C/T silent mutation. These results provide further evidence of mutational heterogeneity for MPS II. Also, underlying sequence directed mutagenesis mechanisms for some recurrent mutations in the IDS gene were proposed.

The effect of recombinant human iduronate-2-sulfatase (Idursulfase) on growth in young patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type II.

Project description:Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) is an X-linked, recessive, lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency of iduronate-2-sulfatase. Early bone involvement leads to decreased growth velocity and short stature in nearly all patients. Our analysis aimed to investigate the effects of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with idursulfase (Elaprase) on growth in young patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type II. Analysis of longitudinal anthropometric data of MPS II patients (group 1, n?=?13) who started ERT before 6 years of age (range from 3 months to 6 years, mean 3.6 years, median 4 years) was performed and then compared with retrospective analysis of data for MPS II patients naïve to ERT (group 2, n?=?50). Patients in group 1 received intravenous idursulfase at a standard dose of 0.58 mg/kg weekly for 52-288 weeks. The course of average growth curve for group 1 was very similar to growth pattern in group 2. The average value of body height in subsequent years in group 1 was a little greater than in group 2, however, the difference was not statistically significant. In studied patients with MPS II, idursulfase did not appear to alter the growth patterns.

Molecular analysis of iduronate -2- sulfatase gene in Tunisian patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type II.

Project description:UNLABELLED: Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II, Hunter syndrome) is X-linked recessive lysosomal storage disorder resulting from the defective activity of the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS). Hunter disease can vary from mild to severe, depending on the level of enzyme deficiency. We report the IDS mutation and polymorphisms causing the Hunter syndrome in patients from one family in Tunisia PATIENTS AND METHODS: A preliminary diagnosis was made by qualitative detection of urinary glycosaminoglycans of the suspected MPS II probands. The IDS mutation and polymorphisms were determined on these probands and their family members by amplifying and sequencing each of the exons and intron-exon junctions of IDS gene. RESULTS: The studied probands were homoallelic for p.R88P mutation. In addition, three known polymorphisms/sequence variants: IVS3-16 (c.419-16 delT), T214M (c.641C > T), T146T (c.438 C > T), IVS5-87(c.709-87G > A) and one previously unknown: IVS7+38(c.1006+38T > C were identified in the MPS II patients. These are the first Tunisian MPS II patients to be genotyped. CONCLUSION: The identification of these mutation and polymorphisms and their genotype-phenotype correlation should facilitate prenatal diagnosis and counseling for MPS II in Tunisia, where a very high rate of consanguinity exists.

Analysis of normal and mutant iduronate-2-sulphatase conformation.

Project description:Mammalian sulphatases (EC 3.1.6) are a family of enzymes that have a high degree of similarity in amino acid sequence, structure and catalytic mechanism. IDS (iduronate-2-sulphatase; EC 3.1.6.13) is a lysosomal exo-sulphatase that belongs to this protein family and is involved in the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans heparan sulphate and dermatan sulphate. An IDS deficiency causes the lysosomal storage disorder MPS II (mucopolysaccharidosis type II). To examine the structural alterations in heat-denatured and mutant IDS, a panel of four monoclonal antibodies was raised to the denatured protein and used as probes of protein conformation. The linear sequence epitope reactivity of a polyclonal antibody raised against the native protein and the monoclonal antibodies were defined and mapped to distinct regions on the IDS protein. The antigenicity of native IDS was higher in regions without glycosylation, but reactivity was not restricted to protein surface epitopes. One monoclonal epitope was relatively surface accessible and in close proximity to an N-linked glycosylation site, while three others required additional thermal energy to expose the epitopes. The monoclonal antibodies demonstrated the capacity to differentiate progressive structural changes in IDS and could be used to characterize the severity of MPS type II in patients based on variable denatured microstates.

Processing of iduronate 2-sulphatase in human fibroblasts.

Project description:Iduronate 2-sulphatase (IDS) is a lysosomal enzyme involved in degradation of dermatan sulphate and heparan sulphate. Antigenic material was obtained either by purification of placental IDS (A and B forms) or by expression of three different fusion peptides in Escherichia coli allowing the production of five specific antibodies. Pulse-chase-labelling experiments in over-expressing fibroblasts showed poor IDS processing but large amounts of precursors were secreted into the medium. The endocytosis of the 35S- or 33P-labelled precursors by deleted fibroblasts together with glycosylation studies and proteolysis inhibition by leupeptin allowed better elucidation of IDS maturation. The initial 73-78 kDa form is converted into a phosphorylated 90 kDa precursor after modification of its oligosaccharide chains in the Golgi apparatus. This precursor is processed by proteolytic cleavage through various intermediates to a major 55 kDa intermediate, with the release of an 18 kDa polypeptide. Further proteolytic cleavage by a thiol protease gives the 45 kDa mature form containing hybrid and complex-type oligosaccharide chains.

Overexpression of N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulphatase induces a multiple sulphatase deficiency in mucopolysaccharidosis-type-VI fibroblasts.

Project description:High-titre stocks of an amphotropic retrovirus, constructed so as to express a full-length cDNA encoding the human lysosomal enzyme N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulphatase (4-sulphatase) from the cytomegalovirus immediate early promoter, were used to infect skin fibroblasts from a clinically severe mucopolysaccharidosis type VI (MPS VI) patient. The infected MPS VI cells showed correction of the enzymic defect with the enzyme being expressed at high levels and in the correct subcellular compartment. Surprisingly this did not result in correction of glycosaminoglycan turnover as measured by accumulation of 35S in metabolically labelled cells. We demonstrate that this is apparently caused by an induced reduction of the activities of other lysosomal sulphatases, presumably due to competition for a sulphatase-specific processing mechanism by the over-expressed 4-sulphatase. The level of steroid sulphatase, which is a microsomal sulphatase, was also reduced. Infection of skin fibroblasts from a second, clinically mildly affected, MPS VI patient with the same virus also resulted in no significant change in the level of glycosaminoglycan storage. However, in this case the cause of the observed phenomenon was less clear. These results are of obvious practical importance when considering gene therapy for a sulphatase deficiency such as MPS VI and also provide possible new avenues for exploration of the processes involved in sulphatase synthesis and genetically determined multiple sulphatase deficiency.

Structural Basis of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II and Construction of a Database of Mutant Iduronate 2-Sulfatases.

Project description:Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II, Hunter syndrome) is an X-linked genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of iduronate 2-sulfatase (IDS), and missense mutations comprising about 30% of the mutations responsible for MPS II result in heterogeneous phenotypes ranging from the severe to the attenuated form. To elucidate the basis of MPS II from the structural viewpoint, we built structural models of the wild type and mutant IDS proteins resulting from 131 missense mutations (phenotypes: 67 severe and 64 attenuated), and analyzed the influence of each amino acid substitution on the IDS structure by calculating the accessible surface area, the number of atoms affected and the root-mean-square distance. The results revealed that the amino acid substitutions causing MPS II were widely spread over the enzyme molecule and that the structural changes of the enzyme protein were generally larger in the severe group than in the attenuated one. Coloring of the atoms influenced by different amino acid substitutions at the same residue showed that the structural changes influenced the disease progression. Based on these data, we constructed a database of IDS mutations as to the structures of mutant IDS proteins.

Frequency of iduronate-2-sulfatase gene variants detected in newborn screening for mucopolysaccharidosis type II in Japan.

Project description:Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is an X-linked, recessive, inborn metabolic disorder caused by defects in iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS). The age at onset, disease severity, and rate of progression vary significantly among patients. This disease is classified into severe or mild forms depending on neurological symptom involvement. The severe form is associated with progressive cognitive decline while the mild form is predominantly associated with somatic features. Newborn screening (NBS) for MPS II has been performed since December 2016, mainly in Kyushu, Japan, where 197,700 newborns were screened using a fluorescence enzyme activity assay of dried blood spots. We diagnosed one newborn with MPS II with lower IDS activity, elevated urinary glycosaminoglycans, and a novel variant of the IDS gene. In the future, NBS for MPS II is expected to be performed in many regions of Japan and will contribute to the detection of more patients with MPS II, which is crucial to the early treatment of the disorder.
