摘　　要：目的·筛查青少年的成人起病型糖尿病(maturity-onset diabetes of the young,MODY)家系中NEUROD1基因突变,分析突变与中国人MODY6发病的相关性及其潜在的致病机制。方法·采用PCR-直接测序法对96例GCK/MODY2、HNF1A/MODY3、HNF1B/MODY5突变阴性的中国MODY先证者进行NEUROD1突变筛查,同时比较96例MODY先证者与100例非糖尿病对照者NEUROD1基因变异的基因型频率。采用从头建模法构建NEUROD1蛋白野生型和突变体的3D结构,采用双荧光素酶报告基因系统检测野生型和突变体蛋白对胰岛素基因转录活性的影响。结果·在一个MODY家系中发现NEUROD1基因杂合错义突变Glu59Gln (NM_002500.5,c.175G>C)。3D结构分析发现,该突变将野生型中带负电荷的Glu59转化为突变中不带电荷的Gln59,导致两个盐桥键Glu59-Arg54和Glu59-Lys88缺失,并形成一个新的氢键Gln59-Arg54。与野生型相比,Glu59Gln突变体的胰岛素基因转录活性下降36.3%(P<0.05)。与非糖尿病对照相比,96例MODY先证者中Ala45Thr (G-A)变异的AA+GA基因型频率显著升高(P=0.002)。结论·Glu59Gln突变改变了NEUROD1蛋白N端的分子构象,导致其胰岛素基因转录活性显著下降,是该家系突变携带者胰岛素分泌缺陷的原因。Ala45Thr变异与MODY6先证者糖尿病发病年龄的提前有关。Objective·To screen the mutations of NEUROD1 gene in families of maturity-onset diabetes of the young(MODY),and investigate the correlation between the mutation and MODY6 and its potential pathogenesis in Chinese.Methods·PCR-direct sequencing was used for screening NEUROD1 mutations from 96 MODY probands who were negative for mutations in the GCK/MODY2,HNF1A/MODY3 and HNF1B/MODY5 genes,and the genotypic frequency of NEUROD1 variations were compared between the 96 MODY probands and 100 non-diabetic control subjects.A de novo modeling method was used to predict the threedimensional(3D)structures of wild type(WT)and mutated NEUROD1 proteins.Transcriptional activities of both WT and mutant of NEUROD1 on insulin gene were detected by using dual luciferase reporter gene system.Results·Glu59Gln(NM_002500.5,c.175G>C),a heterozygous missense mutation in the NEUROD1 gene,was identified in a MODY pedigree.3D structural analysis showed that the mutation transformed the negatively charged Glu59 of WT into uncharged mutation Gln59,leading to the loss of Glu59-Arg54 and Glu59-Lys88,two salt bridge bonds,and the formation of Gln59-Arg54,one new hydrogen bond.Transcriptional activity of Glu59Gln mutant for insulin gene was reduced by 36.3%when compared with that of WT(P<0.05).A common variation Ala45Thr(G-A)was identified,and AA+GA genotypic frequency of the variation was significantly elevated in the 96 MODY probands in comparison to non-diabetic control subjects(P=0.002).Conclusion·Glu59Gln mutation alters the N-terminal molecular conformation of NEUROD1 protein, resulting in decreased transcriptional activity of insulin gene, which is the cause ofthe defective insulin secretion in mutation carriers of the MODY6 pedigree. The Ala45Thr variation is associated with earlier age ofonset of diabetes in MODY6 probands.
