  2. X-LINKED AGAMMAGLOBULINEMIA • males after 6 M of age • absence of B lymphocytes in PB, severe hypogammaglobulinemia • increased susceptibility to infections • otitis, sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia; skin infections; meningitis, sepsis, osteomyelitis (pyogenic encapsulated bacteria) • diarrhea (Salmonella, Giardia lamblia, Campylobacter) • meningoencephalitis (enteroviruses) • prognosis improved after introduction of IVIG ther.

  3. X-LINKED AGAMMAGLOBULINEMIA • mutations in the BTK gene • BTK important for B cell development, role in pre-BCR signaling pathway • cytoplasmic protein: 659 AA, 77 kDa PH TH SH3 SH2 KINASE ~ 140~ 75 ~ 65 ~ 100 ~ 280 AA

  6. BTK mutations • BTK gene: Xq21.3-22 • 19 exons, 37.5 kb • mRNA 2591 bp • mutations scattered all over the gene http://protein.uta.fi/BTKbase

  7. XLA: genotype-phenotype correlation ! weak genotype-phenotype correlation ! mutations in the same domain the same type of mutations the same mutation various number of B cells in PB various immunoglobulin levels various clinical features

  22. MUTATION DETECTION • DNA from 27 unrelated Czech XLA patients • mutation screening (19 exons) • PCR + DGGE and/or SSCP • determination of mutation • direct sequencing • verification of mutation • restriction analysis • second strand sequencing

  23. BTK – 11. EXON (p.E301del) DGGE SSCP m wt wt wt wt wt wt m wt

  24. SEQUENCING ATG ATT p.M450I

  25. RESULTS I • 23 unique mutations detected in 24 unrelated patients • 5 affected male relatives • 26 female carriers 10 mutations not described previously • No mutation detected in 3 unrelated patients (all regions sequenced) • 1x homozygous deletion of the µH gene (JJ van Dongen) • 2x analysis in progress

  26. RELATIVE FREQUENCY OF MUTATIONS Czech patients BTKbase (http://bioinf.uta.fi)

  27. LOCATION OF MUTATIONS Czech patients BTKbase (http://bioinf.uta.fi) PH TH SH3 SH2 KINASE ~ 140~ 75 ~ 65 ~ 100 ~ 280 AA

  28. RESULTS II • 6x polymorphism • 4x previously described: c.908+70t>c; c.980+78g>a; c.1482-29a>g; c.2031c>t • 2x novel: c.103-27g>c; c.1763+71c>t

  29. SSCP vs. DGGE • both methods used in 13 cases with proven mutation • DGGE positive in 12/13 patients (sensitivity 92%) • SSCP positive in 10/13 patients (sensitivity 77%) • DGGE or SSCP positive in 13/13 patients (= 100%) • DGGE is efficient method for mutation screening of the BTK gene

  30. CONCLUSION • Detection of mutations in the BTK gene enables: • confirmation of diagnosis • identification of mutation carriers • prenatal diagnosis in affected families
