<strong>Cloning and Expression</strong>

<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Fernandez-Canon et al. (1996) cloned the gene for homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase. Characterization of the human HGD gene came from work with the ascomycete fungus Aspergillus nidulans in which a gene encoding an HGD enzyme, hmgA, had been cloned. The deduced amino acid sequence of its encoded protein product was used to identify EST clones putatively corresponding to the human HGD gene. HGD encodes a 445-amino acid polypeptide with high homology to the Aspergillus hmgA. By Northern blot analysis, Fernandez-Canon et al. (1996) found highest expression of HGD in the prostate, small intestine, colon, and liver. </p><p>Schmidt et al. (1997) cloned the homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase gene in the mouse. </p>

<p>In patients with alkaptonuria (AKU; 203500), Fernandez-Canon et al. (1996) identified missense mutations in the HGD gene that cosegregated with the disease (607474.0001, 607474.0002), and provided biochemical evidence that at least one of these missense mutations is a loss-of-function mutation. </p><p>Studying 4 alkaptonuria patients from Slovakia, where alkaptonuria has a notably high frequency, Gehrig et al. (1997) found 2 novel mutations in the HGD gene. In 2 apparently unrelated patients, a 481G-A substitution was found leading to a gly161-to-arg amino acid substitution (607474.0003). Both patients were the only affected members of their families and both were homozygous for this missense mutation. In another pedigree, 2 brothers were homozygous for a 1-basepair insertion (454-457insG) leading to a premature translational stop 26 codons downstream (607474.0004); other relatives were heterozygous for the mutation. </p><p>Beltran-Valero de Bernabe et al. (1998) reported haplotype and mutation analysis of the HGO gene in 29 previously unstudied AKU chromosomes. They identified 12 novel mutations. Eight were missense mutations, 1 was a frameshift mutation, 2 were intronic mutations, and 1 was a splice site mutation. They also characterized 5 polymorphic sites in HGO and described the haplotypic associations of alleles at these sites in normal and AKU chromosomes. </p><p>Beltran-Valero de Bernabe et al. (1999) stated that a total of 17 different AKU mutations had been described. Most of these were missense mutations changing amino acid residues that are conserved between human and other species. Only 3 had been found in more than 1 patient. This remarkable allelic heterogeneity was further demonstrated by analysis of 7 new AKU pedigrees, which uncovered 6 novel AKU mutations and 2 single-nucleotide polymorphisms. Reexamination of all 29 mutations and polymorphisms in the HGO gene described to that time showed that these nucleotide changes were not randomly distributed; the CCC sequence motif and its inverted complement, GGG, were preferentially mutated. These analyses also demonstrated that the nucleotide substitutions in the HGO gene did not involve CpG dinucleotides, which illustrates important differences between the HGO gene and other genes for the occurrence of mutation at specific short-sequence motifs. Because the CCC sequence motifs comprise a significant proportion (34.5%) of all mutated bases that have been observed in the HGO gene, Beltran-Valero de Bernabe et al. (1999) concluded that the CCC triplet is a mutation hotspot in HGO. </p><p>Beltran-Valero de Bernabe et al. (1999) reported 3 novel mutations (607474.0006, 607474.0007, and 607474.0008) and 1 previously reported mutation, met368 to val (607474.0009), in 2 Finnish alkaptonuria pedigrees. Using haplotype analysis, they predicted that the 3 novel mutations were most likely specific to the Finnish population and had arisen recently, in light of the low prevalence of alkaptonuria in Finland and the finding of homozygosity for these mutations in 3 individuals. </p><p>Muller et al. (1999) reported on the molecular defects in 30 AKU patients from central Europe. In addition to 5 mutations described previously, they detected 5 novel HGO mutations. In Slovakia, the country with the highest incidence of AKU, they found that 2 recurrent mutations, 183-1G to A (607474.0005) and gly161 to arg (607474.0003), were found on more than 50% of AKU chromosomes. An analysis of the allelic association with intragenic DNA markers and of the geographic origins of the AKU chromosomes suggested that several independent founders had contributed to the gene pool, and that subsequent genetic isolation was probably responsible for the high prevalence of alkaptonuria in Slovakia. </p><p>Rodriguez et al. (2000) reported 7 novel AKU and 22 fungal mutations, and correlated mutational information with HGO crystal structure and function using kinetic assays of AKU mutant enzymes. HGO is a topologically complex structure which assembles as a functional hexamer arranged as a dimer of trimers. The authors showed how the intra- and intersubunit interactions and the extensive surfaces required for subunit folding and association can be inactivated at multiple levels by single-residue substitutions. </p><p>Zatkova et al. (2000) identified 9 different mutations in 32 chromosomes in 17 Slovak patients with alkaptonuria. Four mutations (2 missense, a frameshift, and a splice site mutation) were novel. Gly161 to arg (607474.0003) and the 1-bp insertion at nucleotide 621 (607474.0010) were each seen in 8 of 32 chromosomes. </p><p>Phornphutkul et al. (2002) identified 23 new HGO mutations. In 57 patients, at least 1 HGO mutation was identified; 23 of these mutations had not previously been reported. Thirty-six patients were compound heterozygotes. In total, mutations were identified in 104 of 116 alleles. At least 1 M368V mutation (607474.0009) occurred in 14 patients. Seven patients were also either homozygous or heterozygous for H80Q, which is considered a common polymorphism. </p><p>Zatkova et al. (2003) stated that 43 HGO mutations had been identified in approximately 100 patients. In Slovakia, the incidence of the disorder was estimated at 1 in 19,000, and 10 different AKU mutations had been identified in this relatively small country. </p><p>Vilboux et al. (2009) provided an extensive update of published HGD mutations associated with AKU and identified 52 variants in 93 additional patients. Twenty-two novel mutations were identified, yielding a total of 91 identified HGD variants associated with the disorder. Most of the variants occurred in exons 3, 6, 8, and 13. </p>

<p>Fernandez-Canon et al. (1996) studied the HGD gene in 2 unrelated Spanish alkaptonuria (AKU; 203500) pedigrees. The parents were not consanguineous. Each of the 14 exons composing the HGD gene was PCR-amplified and directly sequenced for each member of the 2 families. In family M, both parents were heterozygous at the HGD locus with a normal allele and an allele carrying a pro230-to-ser (P230S) mutation. The authors noted that pro230 is a conserved residue between the human and fungal proteins. The same 817C-T mutation was found in the second alkaptonuric family (S). The mother was heterozygous for the P230S mutation; the father was heterozygous for a novel allele determining a val300-to-gly substitution (V300G; 607474.0002). The substitution was determined by a 1028T-G transversion in exon 12. The val300 residue is also conserved between the fungal and human proteins. Three alkaptonuric children in this family S but none of 4 healthy children were compound heterozygotes carrying both 817C-T and 1028T-G mutations. </p><p>The same P230S mutation that was found in the HGD gene in mainland Spanish pedigrees was found in an extensively affected kindred in the Canary Islands by Ramos et al. (1998). That they were not derived from the same ancestor, however, was suggested by the fact that the 817C-T transition was always associated with a 1219C-T synonymous substitution in the mainland families, which was not found in the Canarian AKU family. Ramos et al. (1998) also demonstrated that as in the case with the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene (Takahashi et al., 1992), HGD mutations can be detected by ectopic or illegitimate transcription in tissues where the gene is normally not expressed, making the screening of new mutations easier. Reverse transcription-PCR was used for studying mRNA from urine and blood. </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.
