摘要: 目的:以一个血型Ax亚型家系为研究对象,探讨我国人群血型中产生Ax亚型的潜在分子机制。方法:采用血清学方法鉴定该家系成员的ABO血型,测定血浆α-1,3-N-乙酰半乳糖胺基转移酶活性,行DNA直接测序和克隆后测序分析ABO基因序列,并构建3D分子模型,就发现的突变对α-1,3-N-乙酰半乳糖胺基转移酶稳定性改变 (ΔΔG)的影响进行预测。结果:血清学鉴定和DNA测序分析显示,先证者的血型为AxB亚型,其2个女儿分别为A型和AB型,其ABO基因型分别为AW.38/B.01A1.02B.01A1.02/AW.38。先证者和其A型女儿的第7外显子均存在c.426G>C杂合突变,导致α-1,3-N-乙酰半乳糖胺基转移酶的氨基酸发生p.M142I改变。分子模建分析提示,该基因突变改变了蛋白局部氨基酸间氢键的数目,从而导致氨基酸间作用力发生改变,而动力学改变,ΔΔG值升高表明其蛋白稳定性降低。结论:α-1,3-N-乙酰半乳糖胺基转移酶p.M142I突变可能通过降低了酶的稳定性导致Ax表现型,而其深入机制有待体外实验进一步研究。

Abstract: Objective: To explore the potential molecular mechanism of Ax subtypes in Chinese population based on an Ax subtype family. Methods: The ABO blood group serological tests and detection of the total plasma activity of alpha α-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase were conducted. ABO gene was sequenced directly and sequenced after cloning to construct 3D molecular model, and then the effect of identified mutation on protein stability changes (ΔΔG) of alpha α-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase was predicted. Results: The proband was diagnosed as AxB subgroup byserological analysis, and AW.38/B.01 was identified by DNA analysis. His two daughters were identified as A and AB blood group, and their ABO genotypes were A1.02/B.01, A1.02/AW.38, respectively.There was a c.426G>C heterozygous mutation in ABO exon 7 of the proband and his A type daughter, leading to p.M142I change in the amino acid of α-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase. Molecular modeling and analysis suggested that the mutation may lead to changes in the number of hydrogen bonds formed. The increase of ΔΔG value of thermodynamic stability changes indicated that the protein stability was reduced. Conclusions: The mutation of p.M142I in α-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase may lead to Ax phenotype by reducing the stability of the enzyme. In vitro study is needed for further investigation.
