Two frameshift mutations in the RNA-specific adenosine deaminase gene associated with dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria

OBJECTIVE: To report and analyze the mutations of the double-stranded RNA-specific adenosine deaminase (DSRAD) gene in 2 Chinese pedigrees with dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH). DESIGN: Pedigree study. SETTING: Anhui province of China. PATIENTS: Two Chinese families, consisting of 19 individuals (family 1) and 5 individuals (family 2). INTERVENTIONS: We directly performed mutation detection of the DSRAD gene in 2 Chinese families with DSH by sequencing. The whole coding region of DSRAD was amplified by polymerase chain reaction, and products were analyzed by direct sequencing. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Frameshift DSRAD gene mutations. RESULTS: The c.3513insC (Arg1171fs) mutation was found in all patients but not in the healthy individuals from family 1, and the c.3220_3224delGCATC (Gly1073fs) mutation was found in 2 patients but not in the healthy members of family 2. These 2 mutations were not found in 96 unrelated control individuals. CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that these 2 novel frameshift mutations in the DSRAD gene could cause DSH in the Chinese Han population and add new variants to the repertoire of DSRAD mutations in DSH.     

Two novel frameshift mutations of the DSRAD gene in Chinese pedigrees with dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria

Background Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by a mixture of hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules localized on the back of the extremities and caused by the mutations in the DSRAD gene. Methods Two Chinese pedigrees of typical DSH were subjected to mutation detection in DSRAD. Direct sequencing of all PCR products of the whole coding regions of DSRAD was performed to identify the mutation. Results The c.1615delG (p.V539fs) mutation was found in the affected members but not in the healthy individuals in family 1 and the c.ins1372‐9 CCACAGAT (p.D458fs) mutation was found in patients but not in the healthy members of family 2. Conclusion Our study found two novel frameshift mutations in the DSRAD gene. We add new variants to the knowledge of DSRAD mutations in DSH.     

A new mutation of the double-stranded RNA-specific adenosine deaminase gene in a family with dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria

BACKGROUND: Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH) is a pigmentary genodermatosis characterized by a mixture of hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules localized on the back of the extremities and caused by mutations in the double-stranded RNA-specific adenosine deaminase (DSRAD) gene. OBJECTIVE: To identify gene mutations of DSRAD in patients with DSH. METHODS: A Chinese pedigree of typical DSH was subjected to mutation detection in DSRAD. Direct sequencing of all PCR products of the whole coding regions of DSRAD was performed to identify the mutation. RESULTS: A missense mutation 2747G-->T in the DSRAD gene was found in the affected members but not in the healthy individuals in this family and in 50 unrelated controls. CONCLUSION: Our study found a novel missense mutation in exon 9 of the DSRAD gene. We add new variants to the knowledge of DSRAD mutations in DSH.     

A new arginine substitution mutation of DSRAD gene in a Chinese family with dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria

BACKGROUND: Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH) is a pigmentary genodermatosis of autosomal dominant inheritance characterized by a mixture of hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules distributed on the dorsal aspects of the hands and feet. To date, only three articles testified that DSH is caused by the mutations of DSRAD gene (also called ADAR1) encoding for RNA-specific adenosine deaminase. OBJECTIVE: To identify mutations of DSRAD as the disease-causing gene and recognize different mutations giving a clue to insight into the mechanism of DSH. METHODS: We collected a Chinese DSH family consisting of a total of 11 individuals including five DSH patients (three males and two females). The whole coding region of DSRAD was amplified by polymerase chain reaction and products analyzed by direct sequencing. RESULTS: We detected a transition, 3463 C>T, leading to a missense mutation (R1155W) in genomic DNAs of five patients, and the point mutation was not found in normal individuals in this DSH family and in 100 unrelated, population-match control individuals. CONCLUSION: Our data suggests that R1155W missense mutation is a new mutation in exon 15 of DSRAD gene and further testify that DSRAD gene is the pathogenic gene of DSH.     

Identification of two novel mutations in Chinese patients with Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria

Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH) is a rare autosomal dominant cutaneous disorder characterized by a mixture of hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules of various sizes on the extremities. Pathogenic mutations in the DSRAD gene have recently been identified. In this study, we report and identify the mutations of the DSRAD gene in two Chinese pedigrees with DSH. Two novel mutations in the functional domains of the DSRAD gene were identified and verified in two pedigrees. The c.3244A>G (H1075R) mutation was found in all patients but not in the healthy individuals from family A and c.3335_3336delAT (Y1112fs→1112X) mutation was found in three patients but not in the healthy family members from family B. Our data suggests that these two novel mutations in the DSRAD gene could cause DSH and add new variants to the repertoire of DSRAD mutations in DSH. Ming Li and Chengrang Li contributed equally to this work.     

Identification of a novel DSRAD gene mutation in a Chinese family with dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria

Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH) is a rare autosomal dominant cutaneous disorder characterized by a mixture of hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules of various sizes on the limbs. Genetic studies have identified mutations in the DSRAD gene, encoding double-stranded RNA-specific adenosine deaminase, to be responsible for this disorder. In this study, we identified a novel mutation of DSRAD gene in a Chinese family with DSH. The mutation is a novel heterozygous nucleotide T→C transition at position 3617 in exon 15 of the DSRAD gene, which induces a M1206T change in the putative deaminase domain of DSRAD . Our study expands the database on the DSRAD gene mutations in DSH.
