  1. Clinical Review of Genetic Eye Disease Optometry 8570 Fall 2008

  2. Recall… • Cell function in all human tissues depends on the activities of specific protein molecules • Protein activity is dependent upon gene expression that contains the correct DNA sequence for exact protein synthesis • Should know: • Process of gene expression (“Central Dogma”) • Mitosis and meiosis • Basic Mendelian principles

  3. Mutation • Changes in the gene DNA sequence that result in a biologically significant change in the function of the encoded protein • Protein product might not be made at all • Protein product might be produced but work poorly • Protein product may have an adverse effect on the cell (“dominant negative effect”) • Point mutations (substitution of a single base pair) are the most common mutation in humans • Missense mutations are point mutations that cause a change in the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide chain

  4. Mutation • Chromosal rearrangement often results in breaks in specific genes, causing interruption in the normal DNA sequence • Usually results in truncated, unstable dysfunctional protein product • Occasionally the broken gene fuses with another gene to cause a “fusion polypeptide product” which may have novel activity (which may result in functional abnormality) • Example: Many leukemias caused by a fusion protein product caused by translocation of chromosome 9;22

  5. Inheritance Patterns • Understand and Review: • Autosomal dominant • Autosomal recessive • X-linked • Mitochondrial

  13. Know the basics… • For the more common hereditary disorders: • What are the most common presenting clinical symptoms and signs? • Where is the protein defect thought to exist? • What change in physiology is caused by the protein defect?

  14. Clinical Example-Dominant Corneal Dystrophies • Excellent examples of autosomal dominant corneal mutations that result in a toxic protein • 4 have been described that affect the anterior corneal stroma: • Groenouw’s (granular) type I • Lattice type 1 • Avellino (combined granular-lattice) • Reis-Buckler’s

  15. Clinical Example-Dominant Corneal Dystrophies • All 4 have been mapped to a common interval on chromosome 5q31 • Mutations in the gene big-h3 located in this region have been identified in affected familes • This gene product is keratoepithelin, probably an extracellullar matrix protein modulating cell adhesion • At least four different missense mutations, which occur at the arginine codons in the gene, have been found so far

  16. Clinical Example-Stargardt’s Disease • Characterized by progressive bilateral atrophy of the macular RPE and neuroepithelium, with frequent appearance of orange-yellow flecks around the macula; the choroid is characteristically dark on FA • Loss of acuity may have juvenile to adult onset; condition is autosomal dominant • Mutation in a photoreceptor cell-specific ATP-binding transporter gene (ABCR) is responsible

  17. Clinical Example-Stargardt’s Disease • Most mutations so far reported are missense mutations in conserved amino acid positions • The retina-specific ABC transporter responsible for Stargardt’s is a member of a family of transporter proteins expressed in rod photoreceptors • Indicates that this protein mediates the transport of an essential molecule either into or out of photoreceptor cells • This likely results in the accumulation of a lipofuscin-like substance due to inactivation of this transporter protein
