A detailed Hapmap of the Sitosterolemia locus spanning 69 kb; differences between Caucasians and African-Americans.
BMC Med Genet. 2006 Feb 28;7:13., [PMID:16507104]

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Sitosterolemia is an autosomal recessive disorder that maps to the sitosterolemia locus, STSL, on human chromosome 2p21. Two genes, ABCG5 and ABCG8, comprise the STSL and mutations in either cause sitosterolemia. ABCG5 and ABCG8 are thought to have evolved by gene duplication event and are arranged in a head-to-head configuration. We report here a detailed characterization of the STSL in Caucasian and African-American cohorts. METHODS: Caucasian and African-American DNA samples were genotypes for polymorphisms at the STSL locus and haplotype structures determined for this locus RESULTS: In the Caucasian population, 13 variant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified and resulting in 24 different haplotypes, compared to 11 SNPs in African-Americans resulting in 40 haplotypes. Three polymorphisms in ABCG8 were unique to the Caucasian population (E238L, INT10-50 and G575R), whereas one variant (A259V) was unique to the African-American population. Allele frequencies of SNPs varied also between these populations. CONCLUSION: We confirmed that despite their close proximity to each other, significantly more variations are present in ABCG8 compared to ABCG5. Pairwise D' values showed wide ranges of variation, indicating some of the SNPs were in strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) and some were not. LD was more prevalent in Caucasians than in African-Americans, as would be expected. These data will be useful in analyzing the proposed role of STSL in processes ranging from responsiveness to cholesterol-lowering drugs to selective sterol absorption.

Nat Genet. 2007 Aug;39(8):995-9. Epub 2007 Jul 15., [PMID:17632509]

Abstract [show]
With an overall prevalence of 10-20%, gallstone disease (cholelithiasis) represents one of the most frequent and economically relevant health problems of industrialized countries. We performed an association scan of >500,000 SNPs in 280 individuals with gallstones and 360 controls. A follow-up study of the 235 most significant SNPs in 1,105 affected individuals and 873 controls replicated the disease association of SNP A-1791411 in ABCG8 (allelic P value P(CCA) = 4.1 x 10(-9)), which was subsequently attributed to coding variant rs11887534 (D19H). Additional replication was achieved in 728 German (P = 2.8 x 10(-7)) and 167 Chilean subjects (P = 0.02). The overall odds ratio for D19H carriership was 2.2 (95% confidence interval: 1.8-2.6, P = 1.4 x 10(-14)) in the full German sample. Association was stronger in subjects with cholesterol gallstones (odds ratio = 3.3), suggesting that His19 might be associated with a more efficient transport of cholesterol into the bile.

Two genes that map to the STSL locus cause sitosterolemia: genomic structure and spectrum of mutations involving sterolin-1 and sterolin-2, encoded by ABCG5 and ABCG8, respectively.
Am J Hum Genet. 2001 Aug;69(2):278-90. Epub 2001 Jul 9., [PMID:11452359]

Abstract [show]
Sitosterolemia is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by (a) intestinal hyperabsorption of all sterols, including cholesterol and plant and shellfish sterols, and (b) impaired ability to excrete sterols into bile. Patients with this disease have expanded body pools of cholesterol and very elevated plasma plant-sterol species and frequently develop tendon and tuberous xanthomas, accelerated atherosclerosis, and premature coronary artery disease. In previous studies, we have mapped the STSL locus to human chromosome 2p21. Recently, we reported that a novel member of the ABC-transporter family, named "sterolin-1" and encoded by ABCG5, is mutated in 9 unrelated families with sitosterolemia; in the remaining 25 families, no mutations in sterolin-1 could be identified. We identified another ABC transporter, located <400 bp upstream of sterolin-1, in the opposite orientation. Mutational analyses revealed that this highly homologous protein, termed "sterolin-2" and encoded by ABCG8, is mutated in the remaining pedigrees. Thus, two highly homologous genes, located in a head-to-head configuration on chromosome 2p21, are involved as causes of sitosterolemia. These studies indicate that both sterolin-1 and sterolin-2 are indispensable for the regulation of sterol absorption and excretion. Identification of sterolin-1 and sterolin-2 as critical players in the regulation of dietary-sterol absorption and excretion identifies a new pathway of sterol transport.

A functional steroid-binding element in an ATP-binding cassette multidrug transporter.
Mol Pharmacol. 2008 Jan;73(1):12-7., [PMID:18094074]

Abstract [show]
The human breast cancer resistance protein is an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) multidrug transporter that affects the bioavailability of chemotherapeutic drugs and can confer drug resistance on cancer cells. It is the second member of the ABCG subfamily, other members of which are associated with human steroid disorders such as hypercholesterolemia, sitosterolemia, and atherosclerosis. The molecular bases of protein-steroid interactions in ABC transporters are unknown. Here, we identify a steroid-binding element in the membrane domain of ABCG2 with a similarity to steroid hormone/nuclear receptors. The element facilitates steroid hormone binding and mediates modulation of ABCG2 activity. The identification of this element might provide an opportunity for the development of new therapeutic ligands for ABCG2.
