Disease involving enzymes
Inborn error of metabolisms are a heterogeneous group of
disorders which involve failure of the metabolic pathways
involved in either the break-down or storage of carbohydrates,
fatty acids, and proteins.
Very rare, 1:2500 births
Caused by mutations in genes coding for proteins that function
in metabolism.
Majority of the IEMs are inherited in an autosomal recessive
manner.

Disease involving enzymes
Amno acid disorder Urea cycle disorders
Organic acid metabolism disorder Carbohydrate disorders
Fatty acid oxidation disorder Peroxisomal disorders
Lysosomal storage diseases Mitochondrial disorders
Example: Phenylketonuria
Mutations in the PAH gene causes the reduction or loss of phenylalanine hydroxylase
enzyme.
Result: phenylalanine from the diet is not processed effectively. As a result, this
amino acid can build up to toxic levels in the blood and other tissues. Because nerve
cells in the brain are particularly sensitive to phenylalanine levels, excessive amounts
of this substance can cause brain damage.

Defect in receptor protein
Receptors is proteins either inside a cell or on its surface which
receive a signal.
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP): degeneration of photoreceptors
caused by mutations in Rhodopsin. Presently, about 70 genes
have been identified to be associated with RP.

Disorder of structural proteins
Structural proteins are proteins that living organisms use to
maintain their shape or structural integrity. Some common
structural proteins are keratin, collagen, actin, and myosin.
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome: genetic disease due to defect in
collagen.

(I) haploinsufficiency for COL5A1 is uncompensated and leads to a reduction in COL5A1
mRNA and α1(V) procollagen chains. This accounts for 30–50% of classical EDS cases.
(II) Many proline and lysine residues in the translated procollagen chains are hydroxylated
by lysyl- and proline hydroxylases. Hydroxylation is essential for subsequent crosslinking
and lysyl-hydroxylase deficiency causes the kyphoscoliosis form of EDS.
(III) Procollagen α-chains are assembled into trimers within the rough endoplasmic
reticulum (RER). Mutations in COL3A1 that interrupt the triple helical structure prevent
normal processing and secretion of collagen III, causing the vascular form of EDS.
(IV) In the ECM, the NH2- and COOH-terminal propeptides are cleaved by specific
peptidases. Dominant mutations in COL1A1 and COL1A2 can prevent cleavage and cause
arthrochalasia, while recessive loss of the N-procollagen peptidase cause dermatosparaxis.
(V) Collagen molecules self-assemble into heterotypic fibrils. Dominant-negative mutations
in COL5A1 and COL5A2 alter fibril assembly and cause some cases of classical EDS.

Neurodegenerative disorder
Neurodegenerative diseases cause progressive loss of brain
functions.
Aging is a common risk factor.
Many neurodegenerative disorders are characterized by the
accumulation of misfolded proteins or peptide fragments in the
brain and spinal cord.
Neuronal pathways altered in various neurodegenerative diseases:
protein folding and quality control, autophagy and lysosomal
dysfunction, mitochondrial damage and homeostasis, protein
seeding and propagation, stress granules, and synaptic toxicity
17. z
Neurodegenerative disorder
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), vascular dementia, Huntington’s
disease (HD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), spinocerebellar ataxias
(SCA).
HD and SCA: single-gene disorder, triple repeat expansions.
AD: dominant mutations in amyloid precursor protein (APP),
presenilin 1 (PS1), and PS2.
