Point mutation causing a single amino acid substitution in the hormone binding domain of the glucocorticoid receptor in familial glucocorticoid resistance
Open accessAbstract
Familial glucocorticoid resistance is a hypertensive, hyperandrogenic disorder characterized by increased serum cortisol concentrations in the absence of stigmata of Cushing's syndrome. Our previous studies of the first reported kindred showed a two- to threefold reduction in glucocorticoid receptor-ligand binding affinity in the propositus, and a lesser reduction in affinity in his mildly affected son and nephew. Glucocorticoid receptor cDNA from these three patients was amplified by polymerase chain reaction and sequenced. The cDNA nucleotide sequence was normal, except for nucleotide 2054, which substituted valine for aspartic acid at amino acid residue 641. The propositus was homozygous while the other relatives were heterozygous for the mutation. COS-7 monkey kidney cells were cotransfected with expression vectors for either wild type or Val 641-mutant receptors, together with the reporter plasmid pMMTV-CAT. Dexamethasone increased chloramphenicol acetyltransferase activity in cells expressing wild type receptor, but had no effect in cells expressing Val 641-mutant receptors, despite similar receptor concentrations, as indicated by Western blotting. The binding affinity for dexamethasone of the Val 641-mutant receptor was threefold lower than that of the wild type receptor. These results suggest that glucocorticoid resistance in this family is due to a point mutation in the steroid-binding domain of the glucocorticoid receptor.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
