Factor XSanto Domingo. Evidence that the severe clinical phenotype arises from a mutation blocking secretion.

Abstract: IntroductionFactor X (FX) is a vitamin K-dependent plasma protein required for the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of blood coagula- and has structural homology with the genes encoding the other vitamin K-dependent clotting factors (7). The functional domains of the protein are represented by different exons: exon I codes for the signal sequence, exon H for the propeptide, and the y-carboxyglutamic acid-rich domain, exon III for the short aromatic acid-rich stack, exons IV and V for the epidermal growth facto… Show more

“…28 For the wild-type construct, levels of F.IX in the media were in the range of 536 ng/mL to 776 ng/mL at 96 hours (mean Ï­ 696 ng/mL), and levels in the cell lysate were approximately 40 ng/mL to 190 ng/mL (mean Ï­ 115 ng/mL; Table 2). Levels of F.IX antigen secreted into the media were undetectable for the ES, LS, and cCH variants, and similar to wild-type for the MS mutation.…”

“…This mutation at amino acid position -8 blocks targeting and/or cleavage by signal peptidase of the nascent preproparathyroid hormone and thus blocks secretion of the mature hormone. In the second example, a severe bleeding diathesis is caused by the substitution of Arg for Gly at amino acid position -3 of the signal peptide of coagulation Factor X ( 12). The afflicted patient has a severe deficiency of Factor X which is caused by the failure of signal peptidase to cleave the mutant Factor Xsanto Domingo ( 13 ).…”

“…An amino acid substitution within the hydrophobic core of the signal peptide of preproparathyroid hormone has been linked to a form offamilial hypoparathyroidism (11). Similarly, a severe bleeding diathesis results from a substitution at the -3 position of the signal peptide of coagulation Factor Xsnto Domingo ( 12,13). In each case, the alteration of the signal peptide structure results in the failure to secrete the affected protein.…”

“…In some instances-as, for example, due to missense mutations in the genes of fibrinogen, 13 FVII, 14 FX, 15 and FXI 16 -mutant proteins are produced normally but ultimately not secreted because impaired folding and/or conformational changes cause their retention by the quality control system of the secretory pathway, eventually leading to intracellular degradation or accumulation. [13][14][15] In others, the mutant recombinant protein is fully secreted, so that it is possible to compare in vitro the abnormal functional properties with those of the wild-type protein and to understand the nature of the defect and sometimes the mechanism of the corresponding bleeding tendency. [17][18][19] A previous review article listed all the gene mutations identified for each RICD until 2002.…”

“…4,15,[43][44][45][46][47] Phenotypically, most affected individuals have low but measurable levels of FX activity, 44 suggesting that the complete absence of FX in plasma may be incompatible with adult life. Another feature of FX deficiency is the complete absence of reported nonsense mutations, 4 whereas a small number of deletions leading to stop codons were identified (Table 3).…”
