Research Abstract

The main results obtained in the research period is two-folds.
<Identification of the enhancer region for the SHOX expression>
We have previously studied more than 40 patienst with Leri-Weill syndrome, and identified SHOX deletion or mutation in 33 patients. In this research period, we found microdeltions at the 3' region of the SHOX gene in four patients with no demonstrable SHOX mutation. The smallest overlapping deleted region was determined as 39 kb, and in silico analysis disclosed 6 evolutionally conserved sequences within the 39 kb critical region. Thus, we performed luciferase assay with the evolutionally conserved sequences, and identified that a roughly 800 bp sequence has the transactivation function for the SHOX expression. The results suggest for the first time that the enhancer sequence for SHOX is present in the 800 bp region, and support the presence of an enhancer disorder. Furthermore, the identification of the molecule regulating the enhancer will permit to clarify the molecular network underlying the SHOX deficiency disorders.
<Localization of a lymphogenic gene>
We have previously proposed that the characteristic soft tissue and visceral features in Turner syndrome is explained as the malformation sequence initiated by lymphatic hypoplasia, suggesting the presence of an Xp-Yp homologous lymphogenic gene. In this research period, we performed genotype-phenotype correlation in 47 patients with partial Xp deletions and in 18 patients with partial Yp deletions, and localized the putative lymphogenic gene to a roughly 9 Mb region between MAOA and DMD on Xp and to an approximatedly 4 Mb region between PABY and DYS255 on Yp. Furthermore, we have identified three ESTs that may be regarded as the candidates for the lymphogenic gene,.
