The structure of the coding and 5'-flanking region of the type 1 iodothyronine deiodinase (dio1) gene is normal in a patient with suspected congenital dio1 deficiency.

We analyzed the exon-intron structure of the human type 1 deiodinase gene (dio1) and compared it with that of a patient with suspected congenital type 1 deiodinase (D1) deficiency. The hdio1 gene is identical in exon-intron arrangement to the mouse gene, with coding sequences and a selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) element contained in four exons. There were no mutations in the sequences of exons 1-4 of the patient's genomic DNA. Functional studies by transient expression techniques showed no difference in basal promoter activity or T3 responsiveness between the patient's and the normal dio1 gene. A structural abnormality in the dio1 gene is not a likely explanation for this patient's D1-deficient phenotype.[1]
