HMG-CoA lyase (HL) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder that affects ketogenesis and leucine catabolism. We report a new Spanish patient who bears the frequent nonsense mutation G109T (Mediterranean mutation). This mutation can produce aberrant splicing with three mRNA variants: one of the expected size, the second with deletion of exon 2, and the third with deletion of exons 2 and 3. Recently our group proposed a 3D model for human HL containing a (beta-alpha)(8) (TIM) barrel structure. We have studied the effect of the deletions of exon 2 and exons 2 plus 3 on the proposed HL model. Exon 2 skipping led to the loss of beta-sheet 1, and the skipping of exons 2 and 3 caused the disappearance of alpha helix 1 and beta-sheets 1 and 2.-
3-羟基-3-甲基戊二酰辅酶A裂解酶(HL)缺乏症是一种罕见的常染色体隐性遗传疾病,会影响酮体生成和亮氨酸分解代谢。我们报告了一位新的西班牙患者,其携带常见的无义突变G109T(地中海突变)。该突变可产生三种mRNA变体的异常剪接:一种是预期大小的变体,第二种缺失外显子2,第三种缺失外显子2和3。最近我们团队提出了一个包含(β-α)(8)(TIM)桶状结构的人类HL三维模型。我们研究了外显子2缺失以及外显子2和3同时缺失对所提出的HL模型的影响。外显子2跳跃导致β-折叠1丢失,外显子2和3同时跳跃导致α-螺旋1以及β-折叠1和2消失。
