Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering, and particularly relates to a MYO15A gene mutant and application thereof.
Background
Deafness (HL) is the most common disease with sensory dysfunction, and the onset of a considerable number of deafness patients is related to genetic factors. The molecular mechanism of deafness is determined by means of gene detection, prenatal gene diagnosis and intervention measures are further adopted, and the method is an effective means for reducing the incidence rate of deafness and is also one of the fundamental ways for preventing and treating deafness. Hereditary hearing loss can be classified into Syndromic Hearing Loss (SHL) and non-syndromic hearing loss (NSHL) depending on whether there are other clinical phenotypes that are concurrent.
Non-syndromic deafness accounts for about 70% of congenital hereditary deafness, and 75% -80% of them are Autosomal Recessive (AR). To date, more than 100 loci (loci) have been associated with autosomal recessive deafness, these loci being designated DFNB. The non-syndromic deafness caused by different pathogenic genes has obvious differences in the onset age, hearing loss degree, progressiveness and the like. The determination of the pathogenic gene of the deafness helps to select a proper hearing intervention means for the patient, and the life quality of the deafness patient is better improved.
With the development of sequencing technology, more and more genes related to genetic deafness are identified, which provides a basis for the molecular diagnosis of genetic deafness and enables more patients with genetic deafness to be diagnosed and treated. However, due to the strong genetic heterogeneity of hereditary hearing loss, a large number of pathogenic genes are still unidentified, so that the research on the aspect has a large space, and the research on the aspect of enhancing the gene identification is still needed.
Disclosure of Invention
The present invention is directed to solving, at least to some extent, one of the technical problems in the related art. Therefore, the invention aims to provide a MYO15A gene mutant and application thereof.
It should be noted that the present invention has been completed based on the following knowledge and findings of the inventors:
whole-exon sequencing (WES) is the most frequently used method for sequencing genomes. Exons are protein-coding regions of the human genome whose DNA can be captured and enriched using sequence capture techniques. Although the exon regions only account for about 1% of the whole genome, 85% of the pathogenic mutations are contained. Compared with whole genome sequencing, whole exon sequencing is more economical and efficient. Exome sequencing is used primarily to identify and study variations in coding regions and UTR regions associated with disease, population evolution. The combination of a large number of exon data provided by public databases is beneficial to better explain the relationship between the obtained variation and the disease.
The inventor carries out detection and verification of pathogenic mutation by a method of whole exon sequencing and family analysis combined with Sanger sequencing verification aiming at one autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness Trio family (parents + probands) collected by self. Finally, according to each detection result, the inventor determines a new pathogenic mutation site of autosomal recessive non-syndrome type deafness, namely c.2802_2812 delTCCCACCCAC mutation of MYO15A gene, and the mutation forms compound heterozygosity (in trans) with c.5681T > C mutation of the same gene on another chromosome of a patient, so that the autosomal recessive non-syndrome type deafness is caused.
The MYO15A gene is located at the DFNB3 locus and includes 66 exons, encoding three distinct subtypes, one of which is myosin 15. Myosin 15 is essential for the maintenance of normal hearing and thus the MYO15A gene plays an important role in the development and maintenance of hair cell cilia that convey perception.
The inventor researches an autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness Trio family to find that c.2802_2812 delTCCCACCCAC mutation on a pathogenic mutation site MYO15A gene and c.5681T > C mutation of the same gene form compound heterozygosity (in trans), and the mutation causes myosin 15 abnormality to be the cause of human DFNB3 deafness. MYO15A gene mutation can cause autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness, and the clinical manifestation is non-progressive severe-extremely severe full-frequency hearing loss before study. The mutation locus can be used for screening autosomal recessive deafness-causing mutation carriers. The combination of the two mutation sites can be used for molecular diagnosis of autosomal recessive deafness patients and differential diagnosis of related diseases, and has the advantages of rapidness, accuracy, high efficiency, simplicity and high early diagnosis rate. Of course, the gene can be used in combination with other reported mutation sites on the MYO15A gene or other reported mutation sites for autosomal recessive deafness characterization as required, and can be applied to molecular diagnosis of autosomal recessive deafness patients and identification and diagnosis of related diseases.

Detailed Description
The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. The following examples are illustrative only and are not to be construed as limiting the invention.
It should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. Further, in the description of the present invention, "a plurality" means two or more unless otherwise specified.
Herein, the term "non-syndromic deafness" is also commonly referred to in the art as "non-syndromic hereditary deafness", which refers to deafness as the sole symptom of the affected individual, without other genetically impaired sexual organ dysfunction.
The term "autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness", also commonly referred to in the art as "autosomal recessive non-syndromic hereditary deafness" or as "non-syndromic autosomal recessive deafness" or "non-syndromic autosomal recessive hereditary deafness", means that hereditary deafness is controlled by recessive alleles that occur on autosomes, i.e., both alleles are required to appear recessive, and the patient appears diseased. And since the c.2802_2812delTCCCACCCAAC and c.5681T > C mutations appear as compound heterozygosity, patients appear diseased only if mutations occur at both sites.
The invention discovers a pathogenic locus c.2802_2812delTCCCACCCAAC mutation on an autosomal recessive deafness pathogenic gene MYO15A, and the mutation and a mutation c.5681T > C of the same gene on the other chromosome of a patient form compound heterozygosity (in trans), so that autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness is caused. The mutation site can be used for screening autosomal recessive deafness pathogenic mutation carriers, can also be used for molecular diagnosis of autosomal recessive deafness patients and differential diagnosis of related diseases, is rapid, accurate, efficient, simple and convenient, has high early diagnosis rate, and can provide scientific basis for early diagnosis, differential diagnosis and drug treatment of autosomal recessive deafness.
It should be noted that the mutation site on the MYO15A gene provided herein can be used as a marker of non-syndromic deafness, more specifically, a marker of autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness; or the presence of these mutation sites is indicative of a biological sample having non-syndromic deafness, more particularly autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness. This does not mean that "non-syndromic deafness" or "autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness" is a restriction as a site of this mutation in the MYO15A gene. That is, if the disease characterized by the mutation site in the MYO15A gene is to be specifically indicated or indicated, it is known that it may indicate that the biological sample is afflicted with non-syndromic deafness, more specifically autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness; but can just as well be informed directly, depending on the specific purpose or on the subject, that genetic deafness is present, or that deafness is present.
Herein, the DNA sequence (e.g. intron sequence, exon sequence, etc.), RNA sequence, information on the encoded protein, etc. of the wild-type MYO15A gene are all included in the NCBI database and can be obtained with reference to the following website: https:// www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NC _000017.10report ═ genbank & from ═ 18012020& to ═ 18083116 and https:// www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NM _ 016239.4/. The c.2802_2812delTCCCACCCAAC mutations, c.5681t > C mutations shown herein were all determined with reference to cDNA and intron sequences of the wild-type MYO15A gene in the NCBI database.
The c.2802_2812delTCCCACCCAAC mutation shown herein refers to a TCCCACCCAAC base deletion at positions 2802 to 2812 in the cDNA of wild-type MYO 15A.
For purposes of illustration, a portion of the DNA sequence of the wild-type MYO15A gene is provided below, and the double underlined bold bases of the c.2802-2812 delTCCCACCCAAC mutation corresponding to this portion of the wild-type sequence (SEQ ID NO:1) is the deletion of base TCCCACCCAAC that occurs.
SEQ ID NO:1 (corresponding to NCBI database accession number NM-016239.4, Sequence section: EXON2)
As follows:
correspondingly, c.2802_2812delTCCCACCCAAC mutation of the MYO15A gene resulted in an amino acid change, which can be expressed as p.gln937leufs × 39, representing that the 937 glutamine (Gln) of the mutated polypeptide was changed to leucine (Leu) with a frame shift and termination after a frame shift of 39 amino acids compared to the amino acid expressed by the wild-type MYO15A gene.
Likewise, the c.5681t > C mutation shown herein refers to the replacement of the T base with a C base occurring at position 5681 of the wild-type MYO15A gene.
For ease of review, a partial DNA sequence of the wild-type MYO15A gene is provided as shown in SEQ ID NO:2 (where the double underlined bases are the mutated bases, mutated from base T to base C.. the primer sequence is labeled).
SEQ ID NO:2 (corresponding to NCBI database accession number NM-016239.4, NCBI Reference Sequence, corresponding Sequence segment INTRON23-EXON24)
Accordingly, c.5681T > C mutation of the MYO15A4 gene affects splicing, resulting in a frameshift mutation of an amino acid, which can be expressed as p.Leu1894Pro, i.e. leucine (Leu) at position 1894 is changed into proline (Pro).
It should be noted that the mutation sites and sequences given above are all referred to the contents included in the NCBI database, and it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the mutation sites and sequences shown may be slightly different or changed due to the update of the database or the difference of the database, and the differences or changes may be determined by the contents of the database given as the standard, and are also included in the protection scope of the present invention.

The inventor finds that the c.2802_2812 delTCCCACCCAC mutation and/or c.5681T > C mutation on the gene is closely related to the onset of non-syndrome deafness (such as autosomal recessive non-syndrome deafness), so that whether the biological sample suffers from non-syndrome deafness can be effectively detected by detecting whether the gene mutation occurs in the biological sample.
A gene mutation generally refers to a change in the structural base pair composition or arrangement of genes. Herein, a gene mutation refers to deletion, insertion, substitution, etc. of a base occurring on the MYO15A gene. The gene mutation may be detected or otherwise discerned as a mutation site in the MYO15A gene, as part of the nucleic acid of the MYO15A gene or the entire nucleic acid of the MYO15A gene. Of course, it can be said that the gene mutation can be selected.

For the purposes of the present description and claims, reference to nucleic acids will be understood by those skilled in the art to include virtually either or both of the complementary strands. For convenience, in the present specification and claims, although only one strand is given in most cases, the other strand complementary thereto is actually disclosed.

As mentioned above, c.2802_2812delTCCCACCCAAC mutation and/or c.5681T > C mutation of MYO15A gene are closely related to the onset of non-syndrome deafness, and the protein expressed by the mutant gene is also closely related to the onset of non-syndrome deafness, so that whether the biological sample suffers from non-syndrome deafness can be effectively detected by detecting whether the polypeptide exists in the biological sample.
