Abstract

Confocal laser scanning microscope image of double immunostaining for Wfs1 protein (green) and for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP; an astrocyte marker; red) in the normal mouse retina and optic nerve. Cell nuclei are labeled in blue. The Wfs1 protein, also called wolframin, is the Wolfram syndrome 1 (Wfs1) gene product. Wfs1 is the disease gene for Wolfram syndrome, a neurodegenerative disorder defined by insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus and progressive optic atrophy. This image shows that Wfs1 immunoreactivity is observed in the GFAP‐rich part of the optic nerve immediately behind the eye (central part of the image), and in most of the retinal layers (lower part of the image).

Wolfram syndrome (WS), a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder, results in most cases from mutations in the WFS1 gene. In this study, a total of 19 patients with Wolfram syndrome and 36 relatives from 17 families were screened for mutations in the WFS1 gene. WFS1 mutations were identif

WFS1 is a novel gene and encodes an 890 amino-acid glycoprotein (wolframin), predominantly localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. Mutations in WFS1 underlie autosomal recessive Wolfram syndrome and autosomal dominant low frequency sensorineural hearing impairment (LFSNHI) DFNA6/14. In addition, sev

The nucleotide sequence of the human cDNA encoding ubiquitin-activating enzyme E1 is more than 99% identical with the human A1S9T cDNA, a gene that has been shown to complement the temperature-sensitive mutant mouse cell line, tsA1S9. The amino acid sequences of the proteins encoded by these two cDN
