ABSTRACT
Intellectual disability (ID) is a kind of nervous developmental disorder and affects more than 1% of people worldwide. SLC45A1 as a transmembrane protein is implicated in the regulation of glucose homoeostasis. Through trio-based exome sequencing, the missense mutations of SLC45A1 c.103G>A (p.V35M) and c.1211T>G (p.F404C) were identified in the proband with syndromic ID. The distribution, expression and activity of SLC45A1 wild-type (WT) and variants were assayed in transfected COS7 cells. In SLC45A1 variants, the hydrogen bonds surrounding the 35th and 404th amino acid were changed, location on the cytomembrane was failed, their activity to transport glucose was also significantly decreased to contrast with SLC45A1-WT. No difference was observed at the mRNA and protein level. In conclusion, the compound heterozygous variants of SLC45A1 might be the genetic etiology for syndromic ID. These novel mutations probably attenuated its activity to transport glucose by the alteration of tertiary structure and failure of intracellular location.
