Murine model (Galnstm(C76S)slu) of MPS IVA with missense mutation at the active site cysteine conserved among sulfatase proteins
چکیده انگلیسی

Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by deficiency of N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase (GALNS), required for degradation of keratan sulfate and chondroitin-6-sulfate. In order to study the effects of a missense mutation in the active site cysteine in the GALNS gene that is conserved in all mammalian sulfatases, we produced a p.C76S (an active site replacement) knock-in mouse by replacing the Cys76 with Ser in the endogenous murine Galns by targeted mutagenesis. Homozygous Galnstm(C76S)slu mice had no detectable GALNS enzyme activity. At age of 2–4 months, lysosomal storage was present primarily within reticuloendothelial cells such as Kupffer cells and spleen sinusoidal lining cells. Vacuolar change was present in glomerular visceral epithelial cells and was not present in hepatocytes or renal tubular cells. In the brain, hippocampal and neocortical neurons and meningeal cells showed lysosomal storage. Radiographs revealed no change in the skeletal bones of mice up to 12 months old. Thus, the Galnstm(C76S)slu mice had visceral storage of GAGs in organs but lacked the skeletal features of human MPS IVA. In contrast to a previously reported transgenic model (Galnstm(hC79S·mC76S)slu), in which the inactive human GALNS transgene was overexpressed, no reduction in other sulfatases was observed. In addition, the Galnstm(C76S)slu mice displayed milder storage. We conclude that the milder phenotype is characteristic of isolated GALNS deficiency while the more severe phenotype reflected in the Galnstm(hC79S·mC76S)slu mice was due to deficiency of other sulfatases caused by oversaturation of the sulfate modifying enzyme by the inactive human gene product.
