This Month in the JournalHuman PAF-2 in Zellweger Syndrome, by Fukuda etal. (p. 1210)Zellweger syndrome results from metabolic defects inlipid metabolism and oxidative biochemistry, conse-quences of the complete absence of peroxisomes. Thebiosynthesis of peroxisomes has been studied extensivelyin cultured cell systems, and a large number of mutanthuman and hamster cell lines are available that lack thisorganelle. Tsukamoto and colleagues previously re-ported cloning a rat gene for peroxisome assembly fac-tor-2 (PAF-2), which restores peroxisome function inone of these cell lines. Now the same group reports thecloning and localization of the human homologue ofthis gene. They find two mutations in PAF-2 in patientswith the group C form of Zellweger syndrome.COL4A5 Mutations in Alport Syndrome, byKnebelmann et al. (p. 1221)The glomerular basement membrane (GBM), an extra-cellular structure required for normal kidney function,owes its unusual filtration properties to its distinctivecomposition. Mutations in genes for the type IV collagenchains a3(IV), a4(IV), and a5(IV) lead to Alport syn-drome (progressive renal failure and hearing loss, oftenassociated with ocular defects) as a result of alterationsin basement membranes. Here, Knebelmann et al. haveidentified 64 mutations in the COL4AS gene in a groupof individuals with X-linked Alport syndrome. In someof these individuals, the GBM does not stain for any ofthese three collagen chains, consistent with an essentialrole for ac5(IV) in forming the type IV collagen networkin this structure.Age and Origin of HNPCC Mutations, by Moisio et al.(p. 1243)Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC) islinked to genes encoding DNA repair genes, MLH1,MSH2, PMS1, and PMS2. In Finns, a modern popula-tion that originated from a much smaller group 100generations ago, HNPCC arises from mutations only inthe MLH1 gene. Now Moisio and colleagues show thattwo distinct lesions in this gene account for all knownFinnish cases, and they define highly conserved haplo-types associated with each of these mutations. The de-gree of linkage disequilibrium for each haplotype allowsthe authors to reconstruct the history of the two diseasealleles in the Finnish population.

Transmission of FMR1 CGG Repeat, by Nolin et al.(p. 1252)Trinucleotide repeat sequences of >90 triplets at theFMR1 locus generally undergo expansion as they aretransmitted from parent to child, with mental retarda-tion seen in the offspring. Tracts of
Am. J. Hum. Genet. 59:i-ii, 1996
Four of the twin pairs do show significant heteroplasmy,with concordant levels of the variant sequences betweenMZ twins. Because the extent of heteroplasmy variesamong the offspring of individual mothers in the study,the authors suggest that the bottleneck that restricts mi-tochondrial transmission in each ovum normally fallswithin a specified size range but may be quite wide incertain instances. These results raise anew the issue ofhow bottleneck size is established.EGF Exclusion and Mapping Rieger Syndrome Locus,by Semina et al. (p. 1288); and Closing in on theRieger Syndrome Gene, by Datson et al. (p. 1297)Two papers in this issue of the Journal provide a satis-fying example of a cooperative effort using complemen-tary approaches to map a gene. Previous work hadlinked Rieger syndrome, a dominant disorder of eye andtooth development, to 4q25, in the vicinity of epidermalgrowth factor (EGF), a plausible candidate gene. Now,however, Semina and colleagues exclude this locus bothby studying the structure of EGF exons by SSCP and bydefining reciprocal translocation breakpoints in Riegerpatients. The region affected by the two breakpointsnarrows the search for the Rieger syndrome gene to - 50kb. Similarly, Datson and colleagues, making use of thesame patients' chromosomes, develop a YAC-based,cosmid-based contig of the candidate region. Using thefiberFISH technique on cell lines bearing the transloca-tions, they identify a cosmid that carries the 50-kb re-gion with the two translocation breakpoints. At the1996 ASHG meeting, these same groups reported thecloning of the Reiger gene, which encodes a novel ho-meodomain-containing protein.Iridogoniodysgenesis Maps to 6p25, by Mears et al.(p. 1321)Autosomal dominant iridogoniodysgenesis anomaly(IGDA) is an eye disorder that arises from abnormaldevelopment of neural crest cells and leads to malforma-tion of one or more ocular tissues. Here, Mears et al.present linkage analysis of IGDA in two families. Afterexcluding a number of candidate genes and performinga genomewide scan for linkage, they identify a locus at6p25 that is tightly linked to the disorder. Since thissame region is affected in other disorders of eye morpho-genesis, it seems likely that a gene or genes near thislocus play a critical role in neural crest growth or differ-entiation in the developing eye.Refinement of the SCA7 Locus, by David et al.(p. 1328)David et al. report parent-of-origin effects in the transmis-sion of an autosomal dominant cerebral ataxia in two
families. They suggest that this disease displays anticipa-tion, with earlier age at onset and more rapid progressionin later generations, particularly when the disease allele istransmitted paternally. These workers also confirm theearlier mapping of the disorder to the SCA7 locus on chro-mosome 3p and narrow the linkage to a region of 5 cMcontained entirely in a single 660-kb YAC clone. The factthat this small physical region of the chromosome repre-sents such a significant distance along a recombinationalmap suggests that a hot spot for meiotic recombinationresides in or near SCA7. For a discussion of recombina-tional hot spots, see the editorial by Robinson (p. 1175).
mtDNA in Linguistic Isolates, by Stenico et al.(p. 1363)Stenico et al. report on mtDNA sequence diversity inisolated populations in the Italian Alps. Among Europe-ans in general, mtDNA polymorphisms tend to be di-verse within single populations, but variability in theoverall distribution of polymorphisms among groups ismodest. This holds true among these Alpine peoples aswell, with the two exceptions documented here. TheMocheni, speakers of a language related to an earlyBavarian dialect, are clearly a distinct group by this mea-sure. Speakers of Ladin, a Romance language, likewisecarry polymorphisms that are distinct from the usualEuropean repertoire. Ladin speakers are also unusualin that they show little intragroup variability, whereasspeakers of Romansch, a language closely allied withLadin, fall within the general European pattern ofmtDNA diversity. The authors discuss their results inlight of anthropological and historical evidence on thepeopling of the Alps.
Using DSPs to Map Quantitative Traits, by Rogus andKrolewski (p. 1376)Sib-pair analysis, a powerful statistical tool in gene map-ping, can be conducted in either of two ways. In affected-sib-pair analysis (ASP), shared haplotypes are used toidentify loci likely to be linked to the gene of interest. Indiscordant-sib-pair (DSP) analysis, one uses the same datato exclude the possibility of linkage. In this paper, Rogusand Krolewski discuss factors that can make DSP analysismore powerful than ASP analysis. They consider issues ofpenetrance, the mode of transmission, and the possibilityof nongenetic phenocopies of the trait. The authors arguethat linkage of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus maybe a suitable subject for DSP analysis.
