Incidence and expression of the N1303K mutation of the cystic fibrosis (CFTR) gene

Abstract: The N1303K mutation was identified in the second nucleotide binding fold of the cystic fibrosis (CF) gene last year. We have gathered data from laboratories throughout Europe and the United States of America in order to estimate its frequency and to attempt to characterise the clinical manifestations of this mutation. N1303K, identified on 216 of nearly 15,000 CF chromosomes tested, accounts for 1.5% of all CF chromosomes. The frequency of the N1303K allele varies significantly between countries and ethnic gro… Show more

“…The opposite was seen in Chilean ΔF508 chromosomes in our study, with over 90% of them present on XK haplotype B. This finding evidences marked linkage disequilibrium between them, as it has been shown in other populations Highsmith et al, 1990;Dork et al, 1992;Morral, Bertranpetit et al, 1994). A European origin for the ΔF508 mutation observed in Chilean patients is therefore suggested.…”

“…Subsequent research confirmed that this observation reflected the presence of strong linkage disequilibrium, that is, non-random association of alleles at two or more loci on a chromosome, between the most common European mutation, deltaF508 (ΔF508), and haplotype B. This finding supported the theory of a single origin of this mutation (Dork et al, 1992;Highsmith et al, 1990;Morral, Bertranpetit et al, 1994). Several other common mutations are predominantly present on one haplotype.…”

“…The G551D ( p.Gly551Asp) arose in the Celtic population more recently and is still prevalent in Ireland and Brittany (Scotet et al 2003b), and the N1303K ( p.Asn1303Lys) is also rather frequent in populations from the center of Europe (Osborne et al 1992). Besides these rather common mutations, which are largely distributed in the Caucasian population, there are also some founder effects of mutated alleles observed as, for example, in the Reunion Island, where the Y122X ( p.Tyr122X) mutation displays a frequency of 24% (Duguépéroux et al 2004), or the 394delTT ( p.Leu88IlefsX22) referred to as a Nordic mutation found in countries bordering the Baltic sea (Schwartz et al 1994).…”

“…We next compared the trypsin proteolysis patterns of misfolded CFTR from CAS-treated cells with the patterns observed from CFTR⌬F508, CFTRG91R, and CFTR N1303K, which contain mutations localized to the NBD1, MSD1, and NBD2 domains, respectively (Osborne et al, 1992;Xiong et al, 1997). Similar to what we observed upon CAS treatment, the sizes of the N-terminal fragments produced by trypsin digestion of the CFTR⌬F508 and CFTRG91R mutants did not change significantly, but a significant increase in the sensitivity of the 40-kDa fragment to digestion by 25 g/ml trypsin was observed ( Figure 6B).…”
