A gene for autosomal dominant hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (EDA3) maps to chromosome 2q11-q13.

ABSTRACT: Autosomal dominant hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (ADHED) is a disorder characterized by fine, slow-growing scalp and body hair, sparse eyebrows and eyelashes, decreased sweating, hypodontia, and nail anomalies. By genetic linkage analysis of a large ADHED kindred, we have mapped a gene for ADHED (EDA3) to the proximal long arm of chromosome 2 (q11-q13). Obligate recombinations localize EDA3 to an approximately 9-cM interval between D2S1321 and D2S308, with no apparent recombinations with markers D2S1343, D2S436, D2S293, D2S1894, D2S1784, D2S1890, D2S274, and CHLC.GAAT11C03.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Autosomal dominant anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with immune deficiency (AD EDA-ID) is caused by heterozygous point mutations at or close to serine 32 and serine 36 or N-terminal truncations in I?B? that impair its phosphorylation and degradation and thus activation of the canonical nuclear factor ? light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-?B) pathway. The outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is poor in patients with AD EDA-ID despite achievement of chimerism. Mice heterozygous for the serine 32I mutation in I?B? have impaired noncanonical NF-?B activity and defective lymphorganogenesis. OBJECTIVE:We sought to establish genotype-phenotype correlation in patients with AD EDA-ID. METHODS:A disease severity scoring system was devised. Stability of I?B? mutants was examined in transfected cells. Immunologic, biochemical, and gene expression analyses were performed to evaluate canonical and noncanonical NF-?B signaling in skin-derived fibroblasts. RESULTS:Disease severity was greater in patients with I?B? point mutations than in those with truncation mutations. I?B? point mutants were expressed at significantly higher levels in transfectants compared with truncation mutants. Canonical NF-?B-dependent IL-6 secretion and upregulation of the NF-?B subunit 2/p100 and RELB proto-oncogene, NF-?B subunit (RelB) components of the noncanonical NF-?B pathway were diminished significantly more in patients with point mutations compared with those with truncations. Noncanonical NF-?B-driven generation of the transcriptionally active p100 cleavage product p52 and upregulation of CCL20, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1), and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1), which are important for lymphorganogenesis, were diminished significantly more in LPS plus ?-lymphotoxin ? receptor-stimulated fibroblasts from patients with point mutations compared with those with truncations. CONCLUSIONS:I?B? point mutants accumulate at higher levels compared with truncation mutants and are associated with more severe disease and greater impairment of canonical and noncanonical NF-?B activity in patients with AD EDA-ID.
