Application

Application Comment Organism
molecular biology bicistronic expression system is developed which allows the isolation of hybrid forms that exhibit negative interallelic complementation, and may represent a model system for studying the molecular pathogenic mechanisms of PAH gene mutations in compound heterozygous phenylketonuric patients, providing the rationale to understand the observed inconsistencies both in genotype/phenotype correlations and in the response to (6R)-L-erythro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin supplementation Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
DELTA1-102 mutant lacking the first 102 residues corresponding to the N-terminal regulatory domain. 96% of the truncated mutant exist as a tetramer. On coexpression of wild-type-hPAH and the N-terminally truncated form DELTA1-102 (~95% tetramer), heterotetramers, as a result of an assembly of two different homodimers, are isolated. The recovered (wild-type)/(DELTA1-102 mutant)-hPAH heterotetramers reveal a catalytic activity deviating significantly from that calculated by averaging the respective recombinant homotetrameric forms. The heterotetramer assembly also results in conformational changes in the WT-hPAH protomer, as detected by trypsin limited proteolysis Homo sapiens
DELTA1-102/DELTAC24 mutant lacking the first 102 residues corresponding to the N-terminal regulatory domain and the last 24 residues at the C-terminal end corresponding to the tetramerisation motif. 81% of the truncated mutant exist as a dimer and 17% as an aggregated form. On co-expression of wild-type-hPAH (50% tetramer, 10% dimer) and the N- and C-terminally truncated form DELTA1-102/DELTAC24 (80% dimer) no heterodimers is recovered Homo sapiens
