ABSTRACT
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) family CYP11B2/CYP11B1 chimeric genes have been shown to arise from unequal crossing over of the genes encoding aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2) and 11ß-hydroxylase (CYP11B1) during meiosis. The activity deficiency or impaired activity of aldosterone synthase and 11ß-hydroxylase resulting from these chimeric genes are important reasons for 11ß-hydroxylase deficiency (11ß-OHD). Hereï¼two patients with pseudoprecocious puberty and hypokalemia hypertension and three carriers in a consanguineous marriage family were studied. A single CYP11B2/CYP11B1 chimera consisting of the promoter and exons 1 through 5 of CYP11B2, exons 8 and 9 of CYP11B1, and a breakpoint consisting of part of exon 6 of CYP11B2 and part of exon 6, intron 6, and exon 7 of CYP11B1 were detected in the patients and carriers. At the breakpoint of the chimera, a c 0.1086 G > C ( p.Leu.362 =) synonymous mutation in exon 6 of CYP11B2, a c 0.1157 Cï¼G(p. A386V) missense mutation in exon 7 of CYP11B1, and an intronic mutation in intron 6 were detected. The allele model of the CYP11B2/CYP11B1 chimera demonstrated homozygosity and heterozygosity in the patients and the carriers, respectively. Molecular docking and enzymatic activity analyses indicated that the CYP11B2/CYP11B1 chimeric protein interacted with the catalytic substrate of aldosterone synthase and had similar enzymatic activity to aldosterone synthase. Our study indicated that deletion of CYP11B1 and CYP11B2 abolished the enzymatic activity of 11 ß-hydroxylase and aldosterone synthase; however, the compensation of the enzymatic activity of aldosterone synthase by the CYP11B2/CYP11B1 chimeric protein maintained normal aldosterone levels in vitro. All of the above findings explained the 11ß-OHD phenotypes of the proband and patients in the family.
