✖| kisspeptin receptor | |
| Comments: |
Splicing of exon 5 of the kisspeptin receptor results in a non-functional receptor and reduced FSH and LH secretion. This results in idiopathic hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism (IHH). The deletion of the splicing acceptor junction and part of exon 5 leads to an abnormal protein sequence downstream from residue 247. The deleted receptor is truncated within the third intracellular loop, thus lacking transmembrane domains 6 and 7 (de Roux et al., 2003). Single nucleotide polymorphisms. Genetic linkage analysis identified a consanguineous family with IHH with a mutation in the kisspeptin receptor gene (L148S) and an unrelated proband with two mutations (R331X and X399R) resulting in the same phenotype (Seminara et al., 2003). A C223R mutation in the 5th transmembrane helix and an R297L mutation in the 3rd extracellular loop have been found in human IHH patients. The former results in impaired receptor signalling and the latter results in a mild reduction in ligand-stimulated activity (Semple et al., 2005). |
