BH4 production in activated T cells is linked to alterations in iron metabolism and mitochondrial bioenergetics.

Administration of BH4 to mice markedly reduced tumor growth and expanded the population of intratumoral effector T cells.

The first mutation was an A-G transition at position -2 of intron 1 of GCH1, predicted to result in the skipping of exon 2. Fusion of exons 1 and 3 caused a frameshift that generated a premature stop codon. The second mutation was an A-G transition at position -2 of intron 2 (<a href="#0006">600225.0006</a>), predicted to generated a new splice acceptor site 1 basepair upstream of the wildtype splice site. This, together with a pyrimidine stretch upstream of the new splice site, rendered this site functional and generated a transcript with the insertion of 1 base, i.e., the G of the wildtype splice site. This in turn caused a frameshift, including the introduction of a premature stop codon. Both mutations generated truncated GTP cyclohydrolase polypeptides. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?cmd=link&linkname=pubmed_pubmed&from_uid=10732814" 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>

The next AUG codon lies at the position corresponding to amino acid 20, resulting in a frameshift and a UGA termination codon located 139 nucleotides downstream. The putative translation product was a 46-amino acid peptide completely different from the normal GCH1 gene product. The patient had had intermittent internal rotation of her legs, particularly the left, since the age of 8. The symptoms were aggravated toward evening and gradually spread to the other limbs. Postural tremor became apparent after the age of 20. During her thirties, she could walk for 1 hour in the morning, becoming immobile toward evening. At examination at the age of 35, both feet tended to turn inward and plantarflex. She walked with her left foot circumflexed. Small doses of levodopa provided a considerable and sustained improvement. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?cmd=link&linkname=pubmed_pubmed&from_uid=9576537" 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>GTP cyclohydrolase I (EC 3.5.4.16) catalyzes the conversion of GTP to D-erythro-7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate, the first and rate-limiting step in tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) biosynthesis. Tetrahydrobiopterin is an essential cofactor for 3 aromatic amino acid monooxygenases: phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan hydroxylases. Animals can synthesize tetrahydrobiopterin in vivo from GTP through several enzymatic reactions.</p>

<p>By screening a human liver cDNA library, Togari et al. (1992) isolated 3 cDNAs corresponding to the GCH1 gene. All 3 cDNAs were identical in their central and 5-prime regions, but diverged at their 3-prime regions. Togari et al. (1992) concluded that, in humans, there are at least 3 distinct GCH1 mRNAs. Gutlich et al. (1994) determined that only the longest of the 3 cDNAs encodes an active enzyme of 250 amino acids. Proteins corresponding to the other 2 shorter cDNAs did not have enzymatic activity. By Northern blot analysis, Gutlich et al. (1994) detected a 3.6-kb mRNA in human tissues. </p><p>Ichinose et al. (1995) cloned both the human and mouse genes for GCH1, and determined that alternative use of the splice acceptor site in exon 6 is responsible for the observed heterogeneity of GCH1 mRNAs. </p><p>Witter et al. (1996) identified a genomic clone containing the 5-prime regulatory region of the GCH1 gene. The transcription start point was mapped by 5-prime RACE. The 2.6-kb region upstream from the transcription start point showed promoter activity when ligated upstream from a reporter gene. </p>

<strong>Gene Function</strong>

<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Hwu et al. (2004) found that a subset of HeLa cells expressing the GCH gly201-to-glu mutation (G201E; 600225.0004) retained expression of the GCH protein, suggesting that they were resistant to the dominant-negative effect. Differential display showed that the resistant cells had a higher expression of the molecular chaperone Hsc70 (600816). Cotransfection of Hsp40 (604572) and Hsp70 (see 140550) with G201E-containing HeLa cells resulted in higher expression of the mutant GCH protein compared to mutant cells without Hsp40 and Hsp70, although the protein had no activity. Expression of the chaperone protein Hsp90 (see 140571) in both wildtype and mutant cells stabilized the GCH protein and increased protein synthesis without increasing GCH mRNA. Hwu et al. (2004) concluded that molecular chaperones regulate GCH at the protein level, that Hsp90 may assist GCH conformation and stability, and that these molecular chaperones may be modifier genes that underlie the variable phenotypic expression in dopa-responsive dystonia (128230). </p><p>Cronin et al. (2018) found that genetic inactivation of GCH1 and inhibition of sepiapterin reductase (SPR; 182125), the terminal enzyme in the tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) synthesis pathway, severely impaired the proliferation of mature mouse and human T cells. BH4 production in activated T cells is linked to alterations in iron metabolism and mitochondrial bioenergetics. In vivo blockade of BH4 synthesis abrogated T-cell-mediated autoimmunity and allergic inflammation, and enhancing BH4 levels through GCH1 overexpression augmented responses by CD4- and CD8-expressing T cells, increasing their antitumor activity in vivo. Administration of BH4 to mice markedly reduced tumor growth and expanded the population of intratumoral effector T cells. Kynurenine, a tryptophan metabolite that blocks antitumor immunity, inhibited T cell proliferation in a manner that could be rescued by BH4. Finally, Cronin et al. (2018) reported the development of a potent SPR antagonist for possible clinical use. Their data uncovered GCH1, SPR, and their downstream metabolite BH4 as critical regulators of T cell biology that can be readily manipulated to either block autoimmunity or enhance anticancer immunity. </p>

<p><strong><em>Autosomal Dominant Dopa-Responsive Dystonia</em></strong></p><p>
In affected members of 4 families with autosomal dominant dopa-responsive dystonia (DRD) (DYT5; 128230), Ichinose et al. (1994) identified 4 heterozygous mutations in the GCH1 gene (600225.0001-600225.0004). </p><p>Among 36 cases of dopamine-responsive dystonia, including 33 cases from 9 British families and 3 sporadic cases, Bandmann et al. (1996) identified 6 novel mutations in the GCH1 gene, all of which were point mutations. In 4 families and 2 sporadic cases, no mutations were identified, suggesting genetic heterogeneity. </p><p>Skrygan et al. (2001) identified 4 different mutations in the GCH1 gene (see, e.g., 600225.0019) in 6 of 33 families with dopa-responsive dystonia. </p><p>Hagenah et al. (2005) identified mutations in the GCH1 gene in 20 (87%) of 23 unrelated individuals with dopa-responsive dystonia. Two patients had large deletions of more than 1 exon, which were detected only by quantitative PCR testing. Hagenah et al. (2005) stated that 85 different mutations had been reported in the GCH1 gene. </p><p>Steinberger et al. (2007) used multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) to examine exons 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 of the GCH1 gene in affected members of 3 unrelated families with DRD who did not have single basepair changes. The authors identified 3 different large heterozygous GCH1 deletions, including deletion of the entire gene (600225.0021). The findings demonstrated that DRD is most likely due to haploinsufficiency of the GCH1 gene, rather than a dominant-negative effect. All patients showed characteristic signs and symptoms of DRD. </p><p><strong><em>BH4-Deficient Hyperphenylalaninemia B</em></strong></p><p>
In a male infant with GCH1 deficiency manifest as hyperphenylalaninemia (HPABH4B; 233910), Blau et al. (1995) identified a homozygous mutation in the GCH1 gene (600225.0017). In another patient with GCH1 deficiency, Ichinose et al. (1995) identified a homozygous mutation in the GCH1 gene (600225.0020). </p><p><strong><em>Autosomal Recessive Dopa-Responsive Dystonia with or without Hyperphenylalaninemia</em></strong></p><p>
Furukawa et al. (1998), Hwu et al. (1999), and Nardocci et al. (2003) identified homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in patients with dopa-responsive dystonia with or without hyperphenylalaninemia (see, e.g., 600225.0010, 600225.0016, and 600225.0022). </p>

<strong>Genotype/Phenotype Correlations</strong>

<p>There is a 4:1 female predominance in dopa-responsive dystonia. Ichinose et al. (1994) found higher GTP cyclohydrolase I activities in males than in females, a possible explanation for the difference in frequency of the disorder. The diurnal fluctuations that are characteristic of this disorder may be explained by the relatively short half-life of BH4. Patients with heterozygous mutations in the GCH1 gene may synthesize BH4 at a low rate that is not high enough to compensate for the consumption of the cofactor during the day, thus leading to aggravation of symptoms toward evening. </p><p>Hirano et al. (1997) studied a mutation in the GCH1 gene suggesting that the abnormal polypeptide encoded by mutant RNA interacts with wildtype polypeptides, generating nonfunctional heteromultimers. They suggested that more frequent occurrence of DYT5 in females than in males may be explained by the higher basal levels of the enzyme in males. </p><p>In patients with dopa-responsive dystonia, Muller et al. (1998) tabulated 29 separate mutations in the GCH1 gene. Most of the mutations resulted in truncation of the enzyme, due to the introduction of a stop codon, a frameshift mutation, or abnormal splicing. Patients who were heterozygous for GCH1 mutations developed dopa-responsive dystonia, whereas individuals who were homozygous or compound heterozygous for GCH1 mutations developed hyperphenylalaninemia with accompanying deficiency of dopamine and serotonin. The authors concluded that autosomal dominant dopa-responsive dystonia is not likely to be simply a matter of haploinsufficiency of the enzyme, because patients with DYT5 have enzyme levels that are approximately 20% of normal rather than the expected 50%. </p><p>Tamaru et al. (1998) studied the GCH1 gene and the clinical features of 8 patients from 6 families with hereditary progressive dystonia with pronounced diurnal fluctuation/dopa-responsive dystonia. Three independent GCH1 mutations were found in 3 patients. One of the patients and her asymptomatic mother were heterozygous for a novel mutation at the initiation codon. The 3 patients with dissimilar GCH1 mutations showed similar clinical features, including isolated limb dystonia progressing to generalized dystonia, diurnal fluctuation of symptoms, and favorable response to levodopa. The other 5 patients with normal sequences in the GCH1 gene presented several features not manifested by the 3 patients with the mutations. </p><p>In affected members of a Japanese family with hereditary progressive dystonia with marked diurnal fluctuation, but no mutation in the coding region or splice junctions of the GCH1 gene, Inagaki et al. (1999) quantified the mRNA levels of GCH1 in phytohemagglutinin-stimulated mononuclear blood cells. They found that the amounts of GCH1 mRNA were decreased to about 40% of the normal level in both patients and carriers. In addition, they found that the GCH1 mRNA was transcribed from only 1 allele, indicating that the other allele was in an inactive state. These results suggested that some novel mutations exist on 1 of the alleles in an unknown region of the GCH1 gene and may decrease the GCH1 mRNA, causing the manifestations of the disorder. </p><p>Among 58 patients with dopa-responsive dystonia, Steinberger et al. (2000) identified mutations in the GCH1 gene in 30 individuals from 22 families. Thirteen of the mutations were familial, 3 occurred de novo, and inheritance could not be determined in 6 cases. Four novel mutations were identified, including a missense mutation, a frameshift mutation, and 2 intronic mutations that affected donor splice sites. Since there was no difference in therapeutic doses of L-DOPA between patients with or without a GCH1 mutation, the authors suggested that the phenotype may be caused by other genes involved in the synthesis of dopamine. </p><p>Among 168 Caucasian adults, Tegeder et al. (2006) found that a GCH1 haplotype (allelic frequency of 15%) causing decreased enzyme levels was significantly associated with less pain following diskectomy for persistent radicular low back pain. Healthy individuals homozygous for this haplotype exhibited reduced experimental pain sensitivity, and stimulated immortalized leukocytes from haplotype carriers showed decreased upregulation of GCH1 compared to controls. Based on these findings and rodent models, Tegeder et al. (2006) concluded that alterations in the concentration of BH4 due to GCH1 activity modify pain sensitivity and susceptibility. </p>

<strong>Animal Model</strong>

<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>The Hph1 mouse exhibits hyperphenylalaninemia and a reduction in GTP cyclohydrolase I activity (McDonald et al., 1988). Bode et al. (1988) showed that the Hph1 gene in the mouse is tightly linked to the nucleoside phosphorylase gene (PNP; 164050) on chromosome 14. This region shows syntenic homology with the region of human chromosome 14 containing the GCH1 and PNP genes. Ichinose et al. (1995) mapped the mouse Gch gene to region C2-C3 of chromosome 14 by in situ hybridization. Montanez and McDonald (1999) demonstrated linkage between the hph1 mutation and the Gch locus on mouse chromosome 14, supporting the use of the hph1 mouse mutant as a bona fide model system for the human disorder of GTP cyclohydrolase I deficiency. </p><p>Hyland et al. (2003) found that hph1 mice have low brain levels of BH4, catecholamines, serotonin, and their metabolites, together with low levels of tyrosine hydroxylase protein within the striatum. These findings are similar to the neurochemical findings in human patients with mutations in the GCH1 gene, suggesting that the hph1 mouse is a good model system of GCH1 deficiency. </p><p>In rodent models of neuropathic and inflammatory pain, Tegeder et al. (2006) found an increase of BH4 resulting from upregulation or enhanced enzyme activity of Gch1. Inhibition of BH4 synthesis by blocking Gch1 activity resulted in attenuation of the pain and prevented nerve injury-evoked excess nitric oxide production, whereas administration of BH4 exacerbated pain. </p>

<p>In patients with dopa-responsive dystonia (128230), Weber et al. (1997) identified 2 previously unrecognized splice site mutations of GCH1 which affected consensus splice acceptor (AG) sites. The first mutation was an A-G transition at position -2 of intron 1 of GCH1, predicted to result in the skipping of exon 2. Fusion of exons 1 and 3 caused a frameshift that generated a premature stop codon. The second mutation was an A-G transition at position -2 of intron 2 (600225.0006), predicted to generated a new splice acceptor site 1 basepair upstream of the wildtype splice site. This, together with a pyrimidine stretch upstream of the new splice site, rendered this site functional and generated a transcript with the insertion of 1 base, i.e., the G of the wildtype splice site. This in turn caused a frameshift, including the introduction of a premature stop codon. Both mutations generated truncated GTP cyclohydrolase polypeptides. </p>

The next AUG codon lies at the position corresponding to amino acid 20, resulting in a frameshift and a UGA termination codon located 139 nucleotides downstream. The putative translation product was a 46-amino acid peptide completely different from the normal GCH1 gene product. The patient had had intermittent internal rotation of her legs, particularly the left, since the age of 8. The symptoms were aggravated toward evening and gradually spread to the other limbs. Postural tremor became apparent after the age of 20. During her thirties, she could walk for 1 hour in the morning, becoming immobile toward evening. At examination at the age of 35, both feet tended to turn inward and plantarflex. She walked with her left foot circumflexed. Small doses of levodopa provided a considerable and sustained improvement. </p>

The most severely affected individual was the proband, the son of first cousins, who developed progressive myoclonic jerky movements of his upper limbs, lower limbs, trunk, and face beginning at the age of 3 years. He also exhibited mild dystonic postures of the upper limbs and neck, mild bradykinesia, and lack of facial expression. Blood prolactin was elevated and CSF homovanillic acid (HVA), 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA), and biopterin were reduced. Treatment with L-DOPA resulted in marked improvement. In 4 affected members who were tested, including the proband, Leuzzi et al.

<p>Steinberger et al. (1999) reported a 49-year-old male with a 3-year history of dopa-responsive dystonia (128230) manifested mainly as an oromandibular dystonia involving involuntary movements of the tongue and lips which worsened during exercise. The patient also showed subtle abnormal posturing of his right hand when he wrote with his left. The oromandibular dystonia partially responded to treatment with levodopa and benserazide. The patient's family history revealed no obvious cases of dystonia, although his father reportedly had abnormal facial movements in childhood that disappeared during adolescence. By DNA analysis, Steinberger et al. (1999) identified a novel 586G-T transversion in exon 5 of the GCH1 gene, resulting in an ala196-to-ser (A196S) substitution. They also identified a synonymous mutation, a 582G-A transition in exon 5, on the same chromosome as the presumed pathogenic mutation. </p>

<p>Hwu et al. (1999) described a girl with progressive dopa-responsive dystonia with diurnal fluctuation (see 233910) beginning at age 2 years and 8 months. There was no family history of the disorder. Plasma phenylalanine was normal. Genetic analysis identified a homozygous 747C-G transversion in the GCH1 gene, resulting in an arg249-to-ser (R249S) substitution. The patient's cells had low, but measurable enzyme activity, compatible with dopa-responsive dystonia. Arginine-249 is located at the C terminus of the protein, outside the catalytic site. E. coli-expressed recombinant R249S mutant protein possessed normal enzyme activity and kinetics. However, in transfected eukaryotic cells, the expression level of the R249S mutant protein was lower than that of the wildtype protein. Therefore, Hwu et al. (1999) suspected that R249S is a destabilizing mutation. Both parents were heterozygous for the mutation, and only mutant clones could be found in the patient, whereas both the mutant and wildtype forms were found in the parents. </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.
