Mutations were also detected in 2 of 7 sporadic patients; the authors suggested that the remainder could be explained by undetected mosaicism for an HLXB9 mutation or by genetic heterogeneity in the sporadic patients. Of the mutations identified in the 22 index patients, 19 were intragenic and included 11 mutations that could lead to the introduction of a premature termination codon. The other 8 mutations were missense mutations that were significantly clustered in the homeodomain, resulting, in each patient, in nonconservative substitution of a highly conserved amino acid. All of the intragenic mutations were associated with comparable phenotypes. The only genotype-phenotype correlation appeared to be the occurrence of developmental delay in the case of 3 patients with microdeletions. HLXB9 expression was analyzed during early human development in a period spanning Carnegie stages 12 to 21. A signal was detected in the basal plate of the spinal cord and hindbrain and in the pharynx, esophagus, stomach, and pancreas. Significant spatial and temporal expression differences were evident when expression of the gene in human and mouse were compared. This may partly explain the significant human-mouse differences in the mutant phenotype. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?cmd=link&linkname=pubmed_pubmed&from_uid=10749657" target="_blank" onclick="gtag('event', 'mim_outbound', {'name': 'PubMed Related', 'domain': 'pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov'})"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus-sign mim-tip-hint" title="Click this 'reference-plus' icon to see articles related to this paragraph in PubMed."></span></a></p><p><a href="#7" class="mim-tip-reference" title="Kochling, J., Karbasiyan, M., Reis, A. &lt;strong&gt;Spectrum of mutations and genotype-phenotype analysis in Currarino syndrome.&lt;/strong&gt; Europ.

A detailed clinical investigation failed to identify any obvious genotype-phenotype correlation. In all familial cases an autosomal dominant transmission was observed. Although 10 of 23 patients with HLXB9 mutations were asymptomatic, radiologic investigation revealed characteristic phenotypic features in all patients. The complete triad, consisting of a presacral mass, anorectal malformation, and sacral agenesis, was found in only 8 of the 23 patients. A highly variable phenotype was seen within 3 of the families, whereas affected members of 1 family showed almost identical phenotypes. The distribution of these and previously described HLXB9 mutations indicated mutational predilection sites within exon 1 and within the homeodomain (including all missense mutations). All reported mutations directly or indirectly affected the DNA-binding homeodomain, as all in-frame mutations were located within the homeodomain and mutations N-terminal of the homeodomain were frameshift mutations leading to HB9 haploinsufficiency.

<p>In most mammals, the pancreas develops from the foregut endoderm as ventral and dorsal buds. These buds fuse and develop into a complex organ composed of endocrine, exocrine, and ductal components. This developmental process depends upon an integrated network of transcription factors. Gene targeting experiments in mice revealed critical roles for PDX1 (<a href="/entry/600733">600733</a>), ISL1 (<a href="/entry/600366">600366</a>), PAX4 (<a href="/entry/167413">167413</a>), PAX6 (<a href="/entry/607108">607108</a>), and NKX2.2. The HLXB9 gene is prominently expressed in adult human pancreas.

<p>Deguchi and Kehrl (1991) found that 2 human homeobox genes, HB9 (MNX1) and HB24 (HLX1; 142995), are highly expressed in CD34-positive (142230) marrow cells but not in CD34-depleted marrow cells. Their expression was readily downregulated during the differentiation of hematopoietic progenitors to specific cell lineages. </p><p>Harrison et al. (1994) isolated a human HB9 cDNA encoding a deduced 403-amino acid protein with a predicted molecular mass of 41 kD. The HB9 homeodomain was found to be most similar to that of the Drosophila homeobox box gene proboscipedia. Northern blot analysis detected a major 2.2-kb transcript in hematopoietic cell lines. The transcript was most prevalent in several human B cell lines and K562 cells. </p>

<p>Based on the expression pattern of HLXB9, Harrison et al. (1994) suggested its involvement in regulating gene transcription in lymphoid and pancreatic tissues. </p><p>Ross et al. (1998) were prompted to investigate the sacral expression of HLXB9 by a report of tailbud expression of the homolog in Xenopus laevis. Ross et al. (1998) found that HLXB9 was detectable in the sacral region during embryogenesis, albeit predominantly in the anterior horn regions of the spinal cord. </p>

<p>In 2 dominantly inherited sacral agenesis families (see Currarino syndrome, 176450), Lynch et al. (1995) found linkage to 7q36 markers. Ross et al. (1998) refined the subchromosomal localization in several additional hereditary sacral agenesis families and identified causative mutations in the HLXB9 gene (142994.0001-142994.0006). </p><p>To define more precisely the involvement of HLXB9 in different phenotypic subgroups of anorectal malformations (ARMs), Belloni et al. (2000) did a mutation screen in 27 individuals showing different sacral conditions. Of the subgroups studied, mutation in HLXB9 was found only in the Currarino syndrome. In 7 of 10 patients with Currarino syndrome, abnormality of the HLXB9 was found. Four patients harbored, within the coding sequence, heterozygous point mutations that would be predicted to cause deleterious changes in the protein; one of these patients had a donor splice site mutation. The entire HLXB9 gene in 2 patients and possibly a third was found to be deleted. The authors found no evidence of HLXB9 involvement in caudal regression (categories III and V) or in total sacral agenesis (categories I and II). </p><p>Hagan et al. (2000) reported an extensive mutation survey that identified mutations in the HLXB9 gene in 20 of 21 patients with familial Currarino syndrome. Mutations were also detected in 2 of 7 sporadic patients; the authors suggested that the remainder could be explained by undetected mosaicism for an HLXB9 mutation or by genetic heterogeneity in the sporadic patients. Of the mutations identified in the 22 index patients, 19 were intragenic and included 11 mutations that could lead to the introduction of a premature termination codon. The other 8 mutations were missense mutations that were significantly clustered in the homeodomain, resulting, in each patient, in nonconservative substitution of a highly conserved amino acid. All of the intragenic mutations were associated with comparable phenotypes. The only genotype-phenotype correlation appeared to be the occurrence of developmental delay in the case of 3 patients with microdeletions. HLXB9 expression was analyzed during early human development in a period spanning Carnegie stages 12 to 21. A signal was detected in the basal plate of the spinal cord and hindbrain and in the pharynx, esophagus, stomach, and pancreas. Significant spatial and temporal expression differences were evident when expression of the gene in human and mouse were compared. This may partly explain the significant human-mouse differences in the mutant phenotype. </p><p>Kochling et al. (2001) identified a total of 5 HLXB9 mutations (4 of which were novel) in 4 of 4 families and 1 of 5 sporadic cases with Currarino syndrome. A detailed clinical investigation failed to identify any obvious genotype-phenotype correlation. In all familial cases an autosomal dominant transmission was observed. Although 10 of 23 patients with HLXB9 mutations were asymptomatic, radiologic investigation revealed characteristic phenotypic features in all patients. The complete triad, consisting of a presacral mass, anorectal malformation, and sacral agenesis, was found in only 8 of the 23 patients. A highly variable phenotype was seen within 3 of the families, whereas affected members of 1 family showed almost identical phenotypes. The distribution of these and previously described HLXB9 mutations indicated mutational predilection sites within exon 1 and within the homeodomain (including all missense mutations). All reported mutations directly or indirectly affected the DNA-binding homeodomain, as all in-frame mutations were located within the homeodomain and mutations N-terminal of the homeodomain were frameshift mutations leading to HB9 haploinsufficiency. Since mutations have been detected in most patients with familial Currarino syndrome, Kochling et al. (2001) found somatic mosaicism to be the best explanation for the low mutation detection in sporadic cases. </p><p>In affected members of a 3-generation family segregating Currarino syndrome, Urioste et al. (2004) identified a frameshift mutation in the HLXB9 gene (142994.0009). Malignant transformation of a presacral teratoma was observed in the 22-year-old proband, and presacral teratomas were found in 6 other family members, including the 3 asymptomatic individuals. Of 9 affected members, only 2 displayed the complete triad. </p><p>In affected members of a 4-generation family with Currarino syndrome, Wang et al. (2006) identified heterozygosity for a nonsense mutation in the HLXB9 gene (142994.0010). </p>

<strong>Animal Model</strong>

<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>In most mammals, the pancreas develops from the foregut endoderm as ventral and dorsal buds. These buds fuse and develop into a complex organ composed of endocrine, exocrine, and ductal components. This developmental process depends upon an integrated network of transcription factors. Gene targeting experiments in mice revealed critical roles for PDX1 (600733), ISL1 (600366), PAX4 (167413), PAX6 (607108), and NKX2.2. The HLXB9 gene is prominently expressed in adult human pancreas. To facilitate study of the role of HLXB9 in the development and function of the pancreas, Harrison et al. (1999) isolated the mouse HLXB9 ortholog, Hlxb9. They found that during mouse development, the dorsal and ventral pancreatic ducts and mature beta cells in the islets of Langerhans express Hlxb9. In gene targeting experiments, mice homozygous for a null mutation of the Hlxb9 gene failed to show development of the dorsal lobe of the pancreas. The remnant Hlxb9 -/- pancreas had small islets of Langerhans with reduced numbers of insulin-producing beta cells. Hlxb9 -/- beta cells expressed low levels of the glucose transporter Glut2 (138160) and homeodomain factor Nkx6.1 (602563). Thus, Harrison et al. (1999) concluded that HLXB9 is key to normal pancreas development and function. </p><p>Catala (2002) reviewed caudal development, the evidence coming from analyses of mutant mice, indicating the involvement of T-box transcription factors and components of the Wnt signaling pathway in cellular migration and mesoderm formation in the caudal embryo. The basis of sacral agenesis in the human in mutations of the HLXB9 transcription factor provides further insight on the developmental program of the caudal embryo. </p>

<p>In affected members of a 4-generation family with Currarino syndrome (176450), Wang et al. (2006) identified heterozygosity for a 4282G-T transversion in the HLXB9 gene, resulting in a glu283-to-ter (E283X) substitution in the DNA-binding domain. The mutation segregated with the disease and was not found in 5 unaffected family members. </p>

To ensure long-term funding for the OMIM project, we have diversified
our revenue stream. We are determined to keep this website freely
accessible. Unfortunately, it is not free to produce. Expert curators
review the literature and organize it to facilitate your work. Over 90%
of the OMIM's operating expenses go to salary support for MD and PhD
science writers and biocurators. Please join your colleagues by making a
donation now and again in the future. Donations are an important
component of our efforts to ensure long-term funding to provide you the
information that you need at your fingertips.
