Research Abstract |
Spinocerebellar ataxia with axonal neuropathy(SCAN1) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by ataxia, cerebellar atrophy, and peripheral neuropathy. We found SCAN1 is caused by a specific point mutation the tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase(TDP1) gene. Functional and genetic studies suggest that this mutation, which disrupts the active site of the Tdp1 enzyme, causes disease by a combination of decreased catalytic activity and stabilization of the normally transient covalent Tdp1-DNA intermediate. The Tdp1 knockout mice showed the retinitis pigmentosa like phenotype. The RNA expressions were mostly normal in the microarray studies of Tdp1 knockout mice. These findings make spurred understanding of DNA repair in human biology and suggested a novel mechanism of human disease.
