The application of molecular analyses can facilitate prenatal diagnosis for families affected by NCL1 or NCL2, in which the familial mutation(s) have been identified. Molecular testing with allele-specific primer extension and DNA sequencing was performed in nine pregnancies, four from two NCL1 families and five from five NCL2 families. Lysosomal enzyme activity assays were carried out as well.Four fetuses from three pregnancies in NCL1 families were found to be carriers for a mutation 451C-T in the CLN 1 gene and one was normal. Prenatal testing of three NCL2 families who carried mutation R208X in the CLN 2 gene showed that all fetuses were carriers. In NCL2 families who carried either mutation IVS5-1C or/and IVS5-1A two normal pregnancies were detected. Our studies indicate that DNA testing, which may provide definitive prenatal diagnosis for NCL, may be used in combination with lysosomal enzyme activity analyses.展开更多
目的:建立检测胆固醇酯转运蛋白(cholesterol ester transfer protein,CETP)基因6种常见突变的等位基因特异性PCR技术。方法:应用针对CETP基因TaqIB(G→A)、I405V(A→G)、D442G(A→G)、R451Q(G→A)、A373P(G→C)和I14A(G→A)这6种常见...目的:建立检测胆固醇酯转运蛋白(cholesterol ester transfer protein,CETP)基因6种常见突变的等位基因特异性PCR技术。方法:应用针对CETP基因TaqIB(G→A)、I405V(A→G)、D442G(A→G)、R451Q(G→A)、A373P(G→C)和I14A(G→A)这6种常见的突变位点设计的等位基因特异性PCR技术,对海南汉、黎族人群中CETP基因突变类型进行了检测,同时对经上述等位基因特异性PCR检测的样本进行序列测定。结果:在海南汉、黎族人群中,TaqIB(G→A)突变位点可检测出GG、GA、AA3种基因型,I405V(A→G)突变位点可检测出AA、AG、GG3种基因型,D442G(A→G)突变位点可检测出AA、AG2种基因型,但在海南汉、黎族人群中未检测到R451Q(G→A)、A373P(G→C)和I14A(G→A)3种突变类型,用等位基因特异性PCR鉴定的CETP基因突变的基因分型结果与序列测定结果完全符合。结论:等位基因特异性PCR技术操作简便,重复性和稳定性好,可作为鉴定CETP基因突变类型的可行方法。展开更多
