Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) codes for a type 2 transmembrane glycoprotein which hydrolyzes extracellular phosphoanhydrides into bio-active molecules that regulate, inter alia, ectopic mineralization, bone formation, vascular endothelial proliferation, and the innate immune response. The clinical phenotypes produced by ENPP1 deficiency are disparate, ranging from life-threatening arterial calcifications to cutaneous hypopigmentation. To investigate associations between disease phenotype and enzyme activity we quantified the enzyme velocities of 29 unique ENPP1 pathogenic variants in 41 patients enrolled in an NIH study along with 33 other variants reported in literature. We correlated the relative enzyme velocities with the presenting clinical diagnoses, performing the catalytic velocity measurements simultaneously in triplicate using a high-throughput assay to reduce experimental variation. We found that ENPP1 variants associated with autosomal dominant phenotypes reduced enzyme velocities by 50 % or more, whereas variants associated with insulin resistance had non-significant effects on enzyme velocity. In Cole disease the catalytic velocities of ENPP1 variants associated with AD forms trended to lower values than those associated with autosomal recessive forms - 8-32 % vs. 33 % of WT, respectively. Additionally, ENPP1 variants leading to life-threatening vascular calcifications in GACI patients had widely variable enzyme activities, ranging from no significant differences compared to WT to the complete abolishment of enzyme velocity. Finally, disease severity in GACI did not correlate with the mean enzyme velocity of the variants present in affected compound heterozygotes but did correlate with the more severely damaging variant. In summary, correlation of ENPP1 enzyme velocity with disease phenotypes demonstrate that enzyme velocities below 50 % of WT levels are likely to occur in the context of autosomal dominant disease (due to a monoallelic variant), and that disease severity in GACI infants correlates with the more severely damaging ENPP1 variant in compound heterozygotes, not the mean velocity of the pathogenic variants present.
核苷酸焦磷酸酶/磷酸二酯酶 1(ENPP1)编码一种 2 型跨膜糖蛋白,它将细胞外磷酸酐水解为生物活性分子,调节异位矿化、骨形成、血管内皮增殖和先天免疫反应等。ENPP1 缺乏引起的临床表型差异很大,从危及生命的动脉钙化到皮肤色素减退。为了研究疾病表型与酶活性之间的关联,我们对 41 名 NIH 研究中的患者的 29 种独特的 ENPP1 致病变异体以及文献中报道的 33 种其他变异体的酶速度进行了定量。我们将相对酶速度与临床表现诊断相关联,使用高通量测定法同时重复进行三次催化速度测量,以减少实验变异性。我们发现,与常染色体显性表型相关的 ENPP1 变异体使酶速度降低 50%或更多,而与胰岛素抵抗相关的变异体对酶速度没有显著影响。在 Cole 病中,与 AD 形式相关的 ENPP1 变异体的催化速度趋于低于与常染色体隐性形式相关的变异体-分别为 WT 的 8-32%和 33%。此外,导致 GACI 患者危及生命的血管钙化的 ENPP1 变异体具有广泛的可变酶活性,从与 WT 相比无显著差异到完全消除酶速度不等。最后,GACI 中的疾病严重程度与受影响复合杂合子中存在的变异体的平均酶速度无关,但与更严重的破坏性变异体相关。总之,ENPP1 酶速度与疾病表型的相关性表明,WT 水平的 50%以下的酶速度很可能发生在常染色体显性疾病的情况下(由于单等位基因变异体),并且 GACI 婴儿的疾病严重程度与复合杂合子中更严重的破坏性 ENPP1 变异体相关,而不是与存在的致病变异体的平均速度相关。
