X chromosome-specific Array-CGH of XLMR patient

ABSTRACT: Mental retardation (MR) is a non-progressive cognitive impairment affecting 2 to 3% of the Western population. So far, point mutations and subtle deletions and insertions have been shown to represent only a proportion (<40%) of genetic causes underlying X-linked mental retardation (XLMR). We have screened a subset of 300 presumable X-linked families by X chromosome-specific array-CGH and identified 6 families with overlapping microduplications at Xp11.22 containing two candidate genes; both of which showed overexpression in the affected individuals. Array-CGH data revealed aberrant Cy5/Cy3 log2 ratios for different but overlapping sets of clones indicating varying sizes of these duplications in the different families. Keywords: comparative genomic hybridization

Array-CGH data revealed aberrant Cy5/Cy3 log2 ratios for different but overlapping sets of clones indicating varying sizes of these duplications in the different families. X chromosome-specific array-CGH performed for probands of families A, FAM3, B, MRX17, C, MRX31, and D, A057, revealing the duplications at Xp11.22. DNA from two unrelated MR patients were differentially labeled and co-hybridized onto the X-array. The patients with duplications were hybridized in Cy5 against unrelated MR patients, named Pat XY1-6, in the Cy3 channel.

Mapping of the GDI1 duplication at Xq28 in four unrelated XLMR patients

Project description:In a study to elucidate the genetic defects in patients with X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) we performed X chromosome-specific BAC-array-CGH and identified a 0.33 Mb inherited recurrent copy number gain at Xq28 in affected males of four unrelated XLMR families. All aberrations segregate with the disease in the families and the carrier mothers show a nonrandom X-inactivation. Tiling Xq28 region-specific oligo-array revealed that all aberrations start at the same position (153.218 Mb) and end between 153.530 and 154.542 Mb. The copy number gain is complex in nature but always included 18 genes of which three, RPL10, ATP6AP1 and GDI1, are highly expressed in brain. From these, the copy number of GDI1 correlated with the severity of clinical features since it was duplicated in one family with nonsyndromic moderate MR, triplicated in males from two families with mild MR and additional features, while in a fourth family with a severe syndromic form of MR, it was present in four copies. Moreover, expression analysis revealed copy number-dependent increased mRNA levels in affected patients compared to control individuals. Interestingly, the breakpoint junction regions suggested a yet unknown recombination mechanism between two adjacent but different sets of low copy repeats.

A defect in the ionotropic glutamate receptor 6 gene (GRIK2) causes autosomal recessive mental retardation

Project description:Non-syndromic mental retardation is one of the most important unresolved problems in genetic health care. Autosomal forms are far more common than X-linked ones, but in contrast to the latter, they are still largely unexplored. Here we report on a complex mutation in the ionotropic glutamate receptor 6 gene (GRIK2, GLUR6), which co-segregates with moderate to severe non-syndromic autosomal recessive mental retardation in a large consanguineous Iranian family1. The predicted gene product lacks the first ligand-binding domain, the two adjacent transmembrane domains and the putative pore-forming loop of the GLUK6 protein, suggesting a complete loss of function, which is supported by electrophysiological data. This finding provides the first irrefutable proof that GLUK6 is indispensable for higher brain functions in man, and future studies of this and other ionotropic kainate receptors will shed more light on the pathophysiology of mental retardation.

16p13 aberrations predispose to autism and MR

Project description:Autism and mental retardation (MR) are often associated, suggesting that these conditions are etiologically related. Recently, array-based comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) has identified submicroscopic deletions and duplications as a common cause of MR. This prompted us to search for such genomic imbalances in autism and related disorders. Here we describe a 1.5 Mb duplication on chromosome 16p13.1, found in four autistic male patients from three families and several variably affected and unaffected relatives. A deletion of the same interval was identified in three unrelated patients with MR and other clinical abnormalities. Duplications and deletions of this interval have not been described before, neither as copy number variants in the Database of Genomic Variants nor in >600 individuals from other cohorts examined by high resolution array CGH in our laboratory. Thus, this is the first description of a recurrent genomic imbalance predisposing to autism and/or MR. Keywords: array CGH

Oligonucleotide microarray analysis of genomic imbalance in children with mental retardation.

Project description:The cause of mental retardation in one-third to one-half of all affected individuals is unknown. Microscopically-detectable chromosomal abnormalities are the most frequent recognized cause, but gain or loss of chromosomal segments that are too small to be seen by conventional cytogenetic analysis has been found to be another important cause. Array-based methods offer a practical means of performing a high-resolution survey of the entire genome for submicroscopic copy number variants. We studied 100 children with idiopathic mental retardation and their parents using the Affymetrix GeneChip® Mapping 100K Assay and found de novo duplications as small as 1.1 Mb in three cases, de novo deletions as small as 178 kb in eight cases, and unsuspected mosaic trisomy 9 in another case. This technology can detect at least twice as many potentially pathogenic de novo copy number variants as conventional cytogenetic analysis in people with mental retardation.

A gene expression fingerprint in mental retardation reflects disease causing defects in the histone demethylase KDM5

Project description:Mutations in KDM5C, (previously named SMCX or JARID1C) a gene that encodes a transcriptional regulator with histone-demethylase activity specific for di- and tri-methylated H3K4, are a comparatively frequent cause of non-syndromic X-linked mental retardation (NS-XLMR). Specific transcriptional targets of KDM5C, however, are still unknown and the effects of KDM5C deficiency on gene expression have not yet been investigated. Here we present the results of gene expression profiling performed on lymphoblastoid cell lines as well as blood from patients with mutations in KDM5C. Using whole genome expression arrays and QRT-PCR we identified several genes, including CMKOR1, JARID1B and KIAA0469 that were consistently deregulated in both tissues. These findings shed light on the patho-mechanisms underlying mental retardation and may have implications for future diagnostics of this heterogeneous disorder.
