Increased HK1 activity levels in the red cells of a patient with a de novo trisomy 10p: t(Y;10)(p11;p12)

Abstract: A male patient with mental retardation and typical clinical features of 10p trisomy syndrome was found to have a duplication of the short arm of chromosome 10 attached to the short arm of the Y chromosome. Quantitative evaluation of nine red cell enzymes showed significantly increased activity levels of HK1 and, to a lesser extent, of PK, PGI, 6PGD, and G6PD. It is suggested that the HK1 locus may be in the 10pter leads to p12 region. The increased levels of HK1 could affect other erythrocyte metabolic pathway… Show more

“…The variation percent ranged between + 141 and +53, and was proportionally higher in younger patients, as compared to healthy age-matched controls. In this re spect we note that, at first examination, case 3 showed a + 242 variation percent of RBC HKI activity [Dallapiccola et al, 1979], while at the age of 6 years the + 53 variation percent well compared with that expected for a sesquialteral gene dosage effect.…”

“…Dallapiccola et al . determined hexokinase activity in the red blood cells of 5 patients with various partial duplications of 10p and also demonstrated an increase in HK1 activity in patients with 10p duplications (9, 10). Although Daniele et al .…”

“…Two cases of dup(l0p) [Aller et al, 1979;Dallapicola et al, 1979 Most of the translocations involved acrocentric chromosomes. In eight families (12 patients) the acrocentric chromosomes were number 14, 15, 21, and 22; in 13 families (19 patients), the nonacrocentric chromosomes involved were 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 18, and 20.…”
