150330.0023; HUTCHINSON-GILFORD PROGERIA SYNDROME |
Identified Mutation |
GLY608SER; Description: In a patient with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (176670), Eriksson et al. [Nature 423: 293 (2003)] identified a G-to-A transition in the LMNA gene resulting in a gly-to-ser substitution at codon 608 (G608S). This mutation was not identified in either parent. |
Remarks |
The donor displays the following clinical signs of progeria: alopecia, severe failure to thrive, mandibular hypoplasia, coxa valga, loss of subcutaneous tissue and flexion contractures of the fingers and toes. The blood specimen was taken ante-mortem on 1/25/90. Culture was initiated on 1/26/90 by transformation of lymphocytes with Epstein Barr virus. The cells grow in suspension and their morphology is spherical. Donor subject has a de novo single base substitution, a G>A change at nucleotide 2034 (2034G>A), which results in a change at codon 608 [Gly608Ser (G608S)] in exon 11 of the Lamin A gene (LMNA). This substitution creates an exonic consensus splice donor sequence and results in activation of a cryptic splice site which in turn causes skipping 150 bp of the LMNA mRNA leading to the deletion of 50 amino acids from the protein. This altered LMNA protein was detected by western blots [Eriksson et al., Nature 423:293 (2003)]. |
