| Identified Mutation |
GLY409ARG AND TER654CYS; In a patient with Hurler syndrome in a consanguineous Muslim Arab family in Gaza, Bach et al. (1993) observed homozygosity for an IDUA allele containing 2 amino acid substitutions: a G-to-C transversion in exon 9 converting codon 409 from GGG (gly) to CGG (arg), and an A-to-T transversion in the termination codon 654 (TGA), converting it to a cys (TGT) residue. The cDNA sequence predicted an extension of 38 amino acids before the next termination codon was reached. Both mutations were found in heterozygous form in the DNA of each parent. Expression of cDNA mutagenized at one or both positions showed that gly409-to-arg caused a reduction of less than half the alpha-L-iduronidase activity, whereas the ter-to-cys mutation reduced activity by 98% compared with expression of normal cDNA.
