  1. Kartagener Syndrome: a relentless triad Betsy Ott

  2. 4 cases Quantified the clinical triad: Bronchiectasis Chronic sinusitis Situs inversus Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), formerly immotile cilia syndrome (ICS) PCD patients do not have situs inversus 1933 Dr. Kartagener

  3. Overview • What’s the problem? • Candidate Genes • DNAH5 and DNAI1 • DNAH5 • Whole Genome Scan • Homozygosity Mapping • LOD scores • DNAI1 • Cloning and Sequencing • Mapping • SSCP Mutation analysis • Inheritance • Diagnosis • Treatment

  4. Left is right? Situs Solitus Situs Inversus

  5. What’s the problem? • Dynein arms do not function • Immotile cilia/flagella • Consequences • 50% result in situs inversus • Symptoms similar to cystic fibrosis • Constant infection in lungs and sinuses • Dysfunctional cilia!!

  6. Dynein Arm defects • 18 ultrastructural defects identified • Most common • Outer dynein arm • Inner dynein arm • Radial spokes • Absence of nexin links Geremek et al. 2004

  7. Find the problem! • Study genes selected based on ciliary function • Use model organisms • Identify candidate genes • Linkage studies • Evaluate candidate genes • Looking for markers linked with the disease in affected families

  8. Chlamydomonas reinharditiiModel organism • Unicellular alga • 2 flagella similar in structure to human respiratory cilia • Used to identify candidate genes • Blair and Dutcher 1992

  9. Identify Candidates Geremek et al. 2004

  10. 1st to identify DNAH5 as candidate gene Homozygosity mapping strategy Whole genome scan with probes LOD score Zmax=3.51 DNAH5 (Omran et al. 2000)

  11. DNAH5 (Cont’d) • Encodes an exonemal heavy dynein chain of outer arm • DNAH5 homologous to Chalmydomonas gene • Studied Arabic Family • 10 members • 4 children affected • 1 with KS, 3 with PCD Healthy Mutant Omran et al. 2000

  12. DNAH5 (Cont’d)2 • Total genome Linkage analysis • 340 microsatellite markers • Avg spacing of 11cM • LOD scores calculated (Zmax=3.51) • Each individual evaluated to give physical map

  13. Haplotypes and Recombination Omran et al. 2000

  14. Marker (D5S630) and DNAH5 Linked Zmax=2.96 Omran et al. 2000

  15. DNAI1 Dynein Axonemal Intermediate Chain 1 • Localized on 9p13-p21 • 20 exons and 699 aa • Codes for a motor protein

  16. DNAI1 (Pannarun et al. 1999) • Pennarun-1st to identify DNAI1 as candidate gene • Used Homolgous-gene approach in Chalmydomanas reinhardtii

  17. Step 1: Cloning and Sequencing of cDNA and genomic DNA • Primers designed from IC78 (Chlamydomonas) and IC2 (sea urchin) • Codes for intermediate dynein arm • RT-PCR • 975bp • More primers made from RT-PCR products • RACE experiments led to characterization of full length 2,526 bp DNAI1 coding sequence • Made more primers • Long-range PCRs determined genomic structure of DNAI1 • 20exons • 19 introns

  18. Step 2: Mapping of DNAI1 • Screened 24 hybrid somatic cell lines (human/rodent) by PCR • Each hybrid contained 1 human ch’some • Used DNAI1 probe and localized to ch’some 9 Pannarun et al. 1999

  19. Step 2 (cont’d): FISH • FISH and R-banding • Biotin labeled probe by nick-translation and FTIC-avidin • DNAI1 localized to p13-21 Pannarun et al. 1999

  20. Step 3: SSCP Mutation Analysis • DNAI1 exons amplified PCR • Products run on mutation-detection-enhancement gel • Detected bandshifts were sequenced • 2 mutated sites found in patient II-1 • Paternal (exon 1) mutation • Maternal (exon 5) mutation

  21. Step 4: Mutation analysisExon 5 • Maternally (I-2) Inherited • 4 bp insertion Creates Frameshift mutation SSCP VspI restriction site created Pannarun et al. 1999

  22. Step 4: Mutation analysisExon 5 • Digestion with VspI Pannarun et al. 1999

  23. Step 4: Mutation analysisExon 1 • Paternally (I-1) Inherited • I bp insertion • Produces a HpaI site SSCP Pannarun et al. 1999

  24. Step 4: Mutation analysisExon 1 • Treatment with HpaI • I-1 and II-1 have mutation • RT-PCR on total RNA • Alternate splicing Pannarun et al. 1999

  25. Step 4: Mutation analysisExon 1 • RT-PCR on total RNA • Alternate splicing • Intron 1 not spliced Pannarun et al. 1999

  26. Inheritance • Autosomal Recessive • Incomplete Penetrance • Extensive heterogeneity Afzelius and Mossberg, 1995

  27. New Kartagener Kids • 1/15,000-1/60,000 live PCD births • 1/30,000-1/120,000 live KS births

  28. What’s up Doc? Electron micrograph of dynein arms • Look for clinical triad: • Bronchiectasis • Chronic sinusitis • Situs inversus

  29. Treatment • Sputum culture to determine type of infection • Prescribe effective antibiotics • Chest Vest • Inhaler • Nebulizer STAY AWAY FROM THE BARS!!!
