Novel Glial Cells Missing B (GCMB) mutations (Arg39Stop and Arg110Trp) that result in loss of subcellular localization and DNA binding, respectively, are associated with autosomal recessive hypoparathyroidism

GCMB, which is the mammalian homologue of the Drosophila gene Glial cells missing, encodes a 506 amino acid parathyroid-specific transcription factor that contains: a GCM DNA-binding domain at residues 19176; a predicted nuclear localization signal (NLS) at residues 176193; an inhibitory domain at residues 258347; and two transactivation domains at residues 174263, and residues 428506. To date only six different GCMB mu...

Identification of a kindred from Northern Ireland with familial hypocalciuric hypercalcaemia type 3, which maps to chromosome 19q13.3

Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcaemia (FHH) is an autosomal dominant disorder of mineral metabolism that is characterized by lifelong elevation of serum calcium concentrations associated with inappropriately low urinary calcium excretion (calcium clearance:creatinine clearance <0.01). Three separate FHH loci have been identified (FHH1-3). Loss-of-function mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) gene located on 3q21.1, which account for the majority of FHH c...
