Disease relevance of IMPDH1

  • Studies are needed to further characterize the functional significance of IMPDH1 nucleic acid binding and its potential relationship to retinal degeneration [1].
  • PURPOSE: To determine the presence and frequency of mutations in the IMPDH1 gene in Japanese patients with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (ADRP), and to characterize the clinical characteristics of patients with the Lys238Arg mutation in the IMPDH1 gene [2].
  • CONCLUSION: In this family with a mutation in IMPDH1, we found a specific phenotype with rod function affected more than cone function, foveal edema, and central retinal function preserved for a long period of time [3].
  • PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate retinal inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase 1 (IMPDH1) transcripts and proteins to gain an understanding of how mutations in IMPDH1 lead to retinal disease [4].
  • Increased IMP dehydrogenase gene expression was observed in brain tumors relative to normal brain tissue and in sarcoma cells relative to normal fibroblasts [5].

Associations of IMPDH1 with chemical compounds

  • IMPDH1 is a ubiquitously expressed enzyme, functioning as a homotetramer, which catalyzed the rate-limiting step in de novo synthesis of guanine nucleotides [17].
  • Production of fluorescent reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) was used to measure enzymatic activity of mutant IMPDH1 proteins [1].
  • The aspartic acid at codon 226 is conserved in all IMPDH genes, in all species examined, including bacteria, suggesting that this mutation is highly deleterious [17].
  • DNA sequencing of affected individuals from the two American RP10 families revealed a GAC-->AAC transition in codon 226 substituting an asparagine for an aspartic acid in both families [17].
  • As lymphocytes depend more than other cell types on de novo synthesis of purines, IMPDH inhibitors such as mycophenolic acid (MPA) can selectively expand lymphocytes overexpressing the enzymes [20].
 

Physical interactions of IMPDH1

  • A yeast-based two-hybrid system was employed which identified inosine-5' monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) type II as specifically interacting with PKB/Akts PH domain [21].
