- Abstract
- Background:
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are severe neurodevelopmental disorders with the male:female ratio of 4:1,
implying the contribution of X chromosome genetic factors to the susceptibility of ASD. The ribosomal protein L10 (RPL10)
gene, located on chromosome Xq28, codes for a key protein in assembling large ribosomal subunit and protein synthesis. Two
non-synonymous mutations of RPL10, L206M and H213Q, were identified in four boys with ASD. Moreover, functional studies
of mutant RPL10 in yeast exhibited aberrant ribosomal profiles. These results provided a novel aspect of disease mechanisms
for autism – aberrant processes of ribosome biosynthesis and translation. To confirm... (More) - Background:
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are severe neurodevelopmental disorders with the male:female ratio of 4:1,
implying the contribution of X chromosome genetic factors to the susceptibility of ASD. The ribosomal protein L10 (RPL10)
gene, located on chromosome Xq28, codes for a key protein in assembling large ribosomal subunit and protein synthesis. Two
non-synonymous mutations of RPL10, L206M and H213Q, were identified in four boys with ASD. Moreover, functional studies
of mutant RPL10 in yeast exhibited aberrant ribosomal profiles. These results provided a novel aspect of disease mechanisms
for autism – aberrant processes of ribosome biosynthesis and translation. To confirm these initial findings, we re-sequenced
RPL10 exons and quantified mRNA transcript level of RPL10 in our samples.
Methods:
141 individuals with ASD were recruited in this study. All RPL10 exons and flanking junctions were sequenced.
Furthermore, mRNA transcript level of RPL10 was quantified in B lymphoblastoid cell lines (BLCL) of 48 patients and 27 controls
using the method of SYBR Green quantitative PCR. Two sets of primer pairs were used to quantify the mRNA expression level
of RPL10: RPL10-A and RPL10-B.
Results:
No non-synonymous mutations were detected in our cohort. Male controls showed similar transcript level of RPL10
compared with female controls (RPL10-A, U = 81, P = 0.7; RPL10-B, U = 61.5, P = 0.2). We did not observe any significant
difference in RPL10 transcript levels between cases and controls (RPL10-A, U = 531, P = 0.2; RPL10-B, U = 607.5, P = 0.7).
Conclusion:
Our results suggest that RPL10 has no major effect on the susceptibility to ASD. (Less)
