DNA METHYLATION |
Sano et al (Mutation Res 217:141-151,1989) examined DNA methylation in normal and Xeroderma pigmentosum cell lines. The amount of 5-methylcytosine in DNA from XP cell lines was on average about 70% of that in DNA from normal controls. The value observed for this XP cell line was 94%. Southern hybridization analysis showed that the HLA-DRa gene in XP B-lymphoblasts was differently methylated from normals, but its expression was apparently unaffected. The methylation of dihydrofolate reductase, a housekeeping gene, was the same as in controls. |

Identified Mutation |
PRO218HIS; In cell line XP1MI, Li et al. [Nature Genet. 5: 413-417, (1993)] found, by complete sequencing of the 2,472 bp coding sequence of the XPC gene, a point mutation that converted proline at position 218 to histidine. The finding suggested that the cell line was either homozygous or hemizygous for this mutation. The XP1MI cell line was the most UV-sensitive of the five cell lines analyzed by Li et al. [Nature Genet. 5: 413-417, (1993)]. Furthermore, the patient demonstrated XP-associated neurologic abnormalities, a rarity in group C. |
Remarks |
De Sanctis-Cacchione; lupus erythematosus; XP1MI; low level of UV induced unscheduled DNA synthesis in fibroblasts; see GM02096 (fibroblast); XP-associated neurologic abnormalities, a rarity in group C; the donor subject carries a point mutation that converts the proline at position 218 to histidine [Pro218His (P218H)]. The cell line is either homozygous or hemizygous for this mutation. |
