RESUMEN

Hearing loss (HL) is one of the most common sensory defects, of which X-linked nonsyndromic hearing loss (NSHL) accounts for only 1-2%. While a COL4A6 variant has been reported in a single Hungarian family with NSHL associated with inner ear malformation, causative role of COL4A6 variants and their phenotypic consequences in NSHL remain elusive. Here we report two families in which we identified a male member with X-linked HL. Each has inherited a rare hemizygous COL4A6 variant from their respective mothers, NM_001287758.1: c.3272 G > C (p.Gly1091Ala) and c.951 + 1 G > C. An in vitro minigene splicing assay revealed that c.951 + 1 G > T leads to skipping of exon 15, strongly suggesting a pathogenic role for this variant in the HL phenotype. The p.Gly1091Ala variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance based on the variant interpretation guidelines. This report provides evidence for variants in the COL4A6 gene resulting in X-linked NSHL. It highlights the importance of in-depth genetic studies in all family members in addition to the proband, especially in multiplex families, to determine the precise etiology of HL.

RESUMEN

ADP-ribosylation refers to the addition of one or more ADP-ribose units onto proteins post-translationally. This protein modification is often added by ADP-ribosyltransferases, commonly known as PARPs, but it can also be added by other enzymes, including sirtuins or bacterial toxins. While past literature has utilized a variety of methods to identify ADP-ribosylated proteins, recent proteomics studies bring the power of mass spectrometry to determine sites of the modification. To appreciate the diverse roles of ADP-ribosylation across the proteome, we have created ADPriboDB - a database of ADP-ribosylated proteins (http://ADPriboDB.leunglab.org). Each entry of ADPriboDB is annotated manually by at least two independent curators from the literature between January 1975 and July 2015. The current database includes over 12 400 protein entries from 459 publications, identifying 2389 unique proteins. Here, we describe the structure and the current state of ADPriboDB as well as the criteria for entry inclusion. Using this aggregate data, we identified a statistically significant enrichment of ADP-ribosylated proteins in non-membranous RNA granules. To our knowledge, ADPriboDB is the first publicly available database encapsulating ADP-ribosylated proteins identified from the past 40 years, with a hope to facilitate the research of both basic scientists and clinicians to better understand ADP-ribosylation at the molecular level.
