Novel SLC12A1 (NKCC2) Mutations in Two Families with Bartter Syndrome Type 1

Abstract: Abstract. Bartter syndrome (BS) type 1, also referred to antenatal BS, is a genetic tubulopathy with hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis and prenatal onset of polyuria leading to polyhydramnios. It has been shown that BS type 1 is caused by mutations in the SLC12A1 gene encoding bumetanide-sensitive Na-K-2Cl -cotransporter (NKCC2). We had the opportunity to care for two unrelated Japanese patients of BS type 1 with typical manifestations including polyhydramnios, prematurity, hypokalemia, alkalosis, and infantile-… Show more

“…The significance of our findings is that they indicate that naturally occurring BS1 mutations, such as Y998X and N984fs (32,33), which deprive NKCC2 of its distal COOHterminal tail and thus interfere with the previously reported 1081 LLV 1083 motif (20), and the two additional 1038 LL 1039 and 1048 LI 1049 motifs identified in the present report, result in defects in the ER exit of the co-transporter. Altogether, our findings suggest that the last 101 AA of COOH terminus is an essential determinant of the ER export of NKCC2.…”

“…1A). A large number of mutations leading to BS1 are located at the COOH terminus of NKCC2, which is an indication of the importance of this domain in NKCC2 protein expression and function (5,6,26,27). In the present work, we studied the effect of the most distal mutation described to date in the NKCC2 COOH terminus (26), Y998X, on NKCC2 expression and function.…”

“…Thus, naturally occurring mutations, depriving NKCC2 of this motif, would lead to inappropriate sorting, which not only would disrupt vectorial solute transport in TAL cells but also could form the molecular basis of BS1. To further support this hypothesis, we also tested the effect of two other different mutations previously identified in the NKCC2 COOH terminus of BS1 patients, N984fs and D918fs (6,27), and studied their effect on NKCC2 expression. N984fs and D918fs mutations produce COOH-terminally truncated NKCC2 proteins missing the last 108 and 198 aa of NKCC2, respectively, and thus lacking the 1081 LLV 1083 motif.…”

“…Therefore, although not widely available in Brazil, molecular tools have become increasingly important for the diagnosis of BS. 2,5,6,9 The rational use of molecular biology techniques will certainly improve our understanding of the genetic aspects of BS, allowing an individualized approach to our patients.…”

“…2,5,6,9,12 The recent study by Brochard et al,2 who investigated mutations in 42 children with BS, is worth mentioning. Most of those children had heterozygous mutations of the KCNJ1 gene (45%).…”
