Molecular characterization of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene in congenital absence of the vas deferens.
Genet Med. 2007 Mar;9(3):163-72., [PMID:17413420]

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: Approximately 20% of patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens remain without two mutations identified. We applied a strategy of serial screening steps to 45 patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens and characterized cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutations in all cases. METHODS: DNA samples of 45 patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens were screened by successive different molecular genetics approaches. RESULTS: Initial screening for the 31 most frequent cystic fibrosis mutations, IVS8 poly(TG)m, poly(T)n, and M470V polymorphisms, identified 8 different mutations in 40 patients (88.9%). Extensive cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene analysis by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography, and DNA sequencing detected 17 further mutations, of which three were novel. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene rearrangements were searched by semiquantitative fluorescent multiplex polymerase chain reaction, which detected a CFTRdele2,3 (21 kb) large deletion and confirmed two homozygous mutations. Overall, 42 patients (93.3%) had two mutations and 3 patients (6.7%) had one mutation detected. CONCLUSIONS: The present screening strategy allowed a higher mutation detection rate than previous studies, with at least one cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutation found in all patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens.

140 Three novel missense mutations (E1401K, P439S, and V1108L), not detected in the general population or in patients with CF, were here first described in patients with CAVD. Login to comment
141 Although the pathogenicity of these mutations is still being assessed by expression and functional in vitro studies, the combination of the amino acid substitutions with other mutations (deltaF508/E1401K, R334W/P439S, V1108L/T5) might be responsible for the CBAVD phenotype. Login to comment
142 In fact, they occur in highly conserved regions of the CFTR protein, which share 100% amino acid sequence homology between species48 and affect the NBD1, NBD2, and transmembrane regions of the protein, which are known to regulate chloride conductance and permeability.49-51 P439S was previously reported in a child with CF with pancreatic insufficiency and mild lung disease, in association with the P439S/R688C genotype.52 The E1401K mutation occurs at a position in which other mutations, E1401X and E1401A, have been described in patients with CF with pancreatic insufficiency.8 Some difficulties in defining CF or CAVD-causing mutations were observed with some missense mutations.6,27 G576A and R668C have been found independently, in pairs, or combined with the D443Y mutation on the same chromosome in patients withaCF-relatedsyndrome.Inaccordancewithpreviousstudies, we expected that G576A and R668C were located in cis in two patients and combined with D443Y in the same chromosome in two patients.6,9,12 Although initially described as polymorphisms,27 they were later considered mild mutations associated with the CBAVD phenotype when combined in trans with the severedeltaF508mutation.53 However,ourpresentresultssuggest they might also cause the CAVD phenotype when associated with other mild CFTR mutations, because three of four patients carry- ingthesecomplexallelesharboredamildorverymildmutationin the other chromosome (D443Y-G576A-R668C/3272-26A¡G, Table 5 Comparative analysis of CFTR mutation allelic frequencies (%) in patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens Countries Patients T5 allele DeltaF508 R334W R117H References Argentina 36 NA 20.8 NA 5.6 43 Austria 22 NA 13.6 NA 9.1 44 Italy 12 8.3 29.2 NA 4.2 39 The Netherlands 21 9.5 19.0 NA 21.4 38 Germany 106 12.3 26.4 0.5 11.3 30 Greece 14 14.3 14.3 NA NA 32 France 800 16.3 21.8 NA 4.4 6 United States 92 17.9 21.2 NA 2.2 41 Canada 74 18.2 16.9 1.4 6.1 5 Turkey 51 19.6 2.9 NA NA 35 Brazil 17 20.6 11.7 NA 2.9 34 Spain 134 20.9 16.0 0.4 3.0 33 Iran 113 25.7 12.4 0.9 3.5 37 Egypt 16 43.7 6.2 NA NA 40 Taiwan 27 44.4 NA NA NA 42 Portugal 45 31.1 23.3 6.7 4.4 13, 36, PS NA, not available; PS, present study.

Molecular and functional characterization of CBAVD-causing mutations located in CFTR nucleotide-binding domains.
Cell Physiol Biochem. 2008;22(1-4):79-92. Epub 2008 Jul 25., [PMID:18769034]

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: About 98% of male affected with cystic fibrosis (CF [MIM 219700]) are infertile due to bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD [MIM 277180]), which makes up 1-2 % of all cases with male infertility. A previous screening of the entire coding region of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR [MIM 602421]) in CBAVD patients identified three novel mutations: P439S is located in the first nucleotide binding domain (NBD1) of CFTR, whereas P1290S and E1401K are located in NBD2. METHODS: We analysed the effects of these novel mutations on CFTR processing and chloride (Cl(-)) channel activity. RESULTS: Although maturation patterns were not affected, total amounts of mature P439S-CFTR and P1290S-CFTR were reduced. Confocal microscopy showed correct membrane localisation of E1401K-CFTR, whereas P439S-CFTR and P1290S-CFTR mutants were located mainly in the cytoplasm. Iodide influx assay and whole-cell patch clamp demonstrated significantly reduced cAMP-dependent anion conductances for all three mutants. CONCLUSION: Dysfunction of CFTR is caused by either defective CFTR trafficking (P439S and P1290S) or/and Cl- channel function (P1290S and E1401K). Thus reduced Cl- conductance caused by the three CFTR mutations affects normal development of vas deferens and leads to CBAVD, but the remaining function is sufficient to prevent other typical CF symptoms.

59 Plasmids, cell culture, transient transfection CFTR mutations (P439S, P1290S and E1401K) were generated (QuikChange site-directed mutagenesis kit, Stratagene, La Jolla, CA) in the eukaryotic expression vector pCMVCFTRNot6.2, according to the manufacturer`s instructions. Login to comment
97 The P439S mutation was evaluated using three-dimensional structures from MJ0796 dimer (PDBid: 1L2T), F508del-CFTR hNBD1 (PDBid 1XMJ), and CFTR mNBD1 (PDBid: ROZ). Login to comment

130 However, total amounts of mature P439S-CFTR and P1290S-CFTR were significantly reduced compared to wtCFTR, as indicated by densitometric analysis (Fig. 2B). Login to comment
137 The mutants P439S-CFTR and P1290S-CFTR were mainly expressed in the cytoplasm with little membrane expression, while E1401K-CFTR was clearly present in the cell membrane, similar to wtCFTR (Fig. 3A-B). Login to comment
159 Intracellular cAMP was enhanced by stimulation of the cells with 2 µM FSK and 100 µM IBMX, which largely increased the rate of I- influx in HEK293 cells expressing wtCFTR, while non-transfected cells or F508del-CFTR expressing cellsdidnotrespondtostimulation(Fig.4A-B).Expression of all three mutants P439S-CFTR, P1290S-CFTR and E1401K-CFTR allowed for cAMP-induced increase in I- influx, although the rate of I- influx was significantly lower than that for wtCFTR (Fig. 4A-B).

160 Reduced I- influx seems to be in accordance with the reduced levels of protein expression for two mutants P439S-CFTR, P1290S-CFTR.Although E1401K did not interfere with Fig. 5. Login to comment
165 GFP = green fluorescence protein, wt = wtCFTR, F508del = F508del-CFTR, P439S = P439S-CFTR, P1290S = P1290S-CFTR, E1401K = E1401K-CFTR. Login to comment
178 Similar to the results from I- uptake studies, CFTR mutants P439S-CFTR, P1290S-CFTR and E1401K-CFTR showed a reduced but significant current increase and activation of whole cell conductance. Login to comment
187 The location of the P439S mutation is also presented on the 3D structures of the MJ0796 dimer (PDBid: 1L2T; the two subunits are represented in green and yellow) and mNBD1 (PDBid: ROZ; orange) superimposed with MJ0796 monomer (PDBid: 1L2TA; green). Login to comment
198 While P439S and E1401K are close toATP binding sites and therefore likely to affect NBD-dimerization andATP binding, respectively, P1290S is located near the interface NBD/MSD, and may interfere with side-chain contacts within the membrane spanning subunit. Login to comment
200 In the present study, we report biochemical and functional data on three CFTR missense mutations located in NBD1 (P439S) and in NBD2 (P1290S, E1401K). Login to comment
210 P439S was identified in heterozygosity with the mild class IV R334W mutation. Login to comment
216 Mutation P439S was previously reported in a 10-year old Hispanic boy with the R668C mutation in the other chromosome and with somewhat atypical features of CF such as a sweat Cl- level of 59 mmol/L, mild lung disease and pancreatic insufficiency [45]. Login to comment
217 Based on our present results and since P439S was associated with the very mild R688C mutation [30], it would not be expected a clinical phenotype of pancreatic insufficiency in that patient, as this is usually associated with the presence of severe CFTR mutations [1]. Login to comment
220 Densitometric analysis showed that the ratio of mature fully-glycosylated to immature core-glycosylated bands detected for P439S-CFTR and P1290S-CFTR was lower than those obtained for wtCFTR, indicating that P439S and P1290S mutations cause dysfunction of CFTR by decreasing total amounts of mature protein. Login to comment
221 Sub-cellular localization of the three CFTR mutants in HEK293 cells indicated dramatically reduced membrane staining for P439S-CFTR and P1290S-CFTR and suggests biosynthetic arrest of CFTR maturation similar to F508del-CFTR [43, 47]. Login to comment
224 Thus E1401K probably reduces the activity of CFTR Cl- chan- nels while P439S-CFTR and P1290S-CFTR reduce the number of CFTR channels in the membrane. Login to comment
225 Further studies using single channel patch clamp will assess if E1401K reduces whole cell conductance by affecting channel open probability or single channel conductance, and if P439S and P1290S also affect CFTR channel pore/gating mechanism. Login to comment
247 Polyphen analysis indicated that while E1401K (PSIC 1.609) is "possibly damaging", P439S (PSIC 2.396) and P1290S (PSIC 2.108) are "probably damaging" (deleterious) to protein function. Login to comment
250 Although, data obtained with the available bioinformatic tools must be interpreted with caution, these results confirmed experimental data, suggesting that P439S, P1290S and E1401K interfere with protein function. Login to comment
253 The other two missense mutations, P439S and P1290S, cause a decrease in the total amounts of the mature protein that might be attributed to a defective processing or an increased protein turnover. Login to comment
254 In fact, P439S seems to be able to impair the fold stability or folding of post-translational NBD1 subunit, which will disrupt the formation of the NBD1/NBD2 heterodimer. Login to comment
256 Based on present data and in what has been established for the classification of different CFTR mutations, P439S and P1290S might be classified as class V mutations, associated with reduced levels of normally functioning CFTR. Login to comment
259 This observation might explain the lower whole-cell Cl- currents determined for P1290S-CFTR when compared with P439S-CFTR and E1401K-CFTR. Login to comment
264 Although P439S, P1290S and E1401K might not lead to a typical CF phenotpye, the knowledge of the mechanism by which they affect CFTR, improve the ability to interpret and predict the clinical phenotype in patients carrying the studied mutations and may give important insights about the molecular consequences of similar sequence alterations that have been, or remain to be characterized.

Diagnostic testing by CFTR gene mutation analysis in a large group of Hispanics: novel mutations and assessment of a population-specific mutation spectrum.
J Mol Diagn. 2005 May;7(2):289-99., [PMID:15858154]

Abstract [show]
Characterization of CFTR mutations in the U.S. Hispanic population is vital to early diagnosis, genetic counseling, patient-specific treatment, and the understanding of cystic fibrosis (CF) pathogenesis. The mutation spectrum in Hispanics, however, remains poorly defined. A group of 257 self-identified Hispanics with clinical manifestations consistent with CF were studied by temporal temperature gradient electrophoresis and/or DNA sequencing. A total of 183 mutations were identified, including 14 different amino acid-changing novel variants. A significant proportion (78/85) of the different mutations identified would not have been detected by the ACMG/ACOG-recommended 25-mutation screening panel. Over one third of the mutations (27/85) occurred with a relative frequency >1%, which illustrates that the identified mutations are not all rare. This is supported by a comparison with other large CFTR studies. These results underscore the disparity in mutation identification between Caucasians and Hispanics and show utility for comprehensive diagnostic CFTR mutation analysis in this population.
