Comment:

Perrault Syndrome 1 (PRLTS1) is a subtype / child of Perrault Syndrome. Mutations in HSD17B4 (= DBP, MFE-2, MPF-2, PRLTS1, SDR8C1) on chromosome 5q23.1, encoding the multifunctional peroxisomal enzyme 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 4 cause PRLTS1. The HSD17B4 enzyme is also known as DBP and is involved in fatty acid beta-oxidation and steroid metabolism (PMID:25956234). Mutations in HSD17B4 cause DBP deficiency (MIM 261515), an autosomal-recessive disorder of peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation that is generally fatal within the first two years of life. Patients with classical DBP deficiency present with hypotonia and seizures by one month of age (PMID:20673864). DBP deficiency can be classified into three types, each based on which of the two DBP enzymatic activities are diminished. In type I, both hydratase and dehydrogenase activities are deficient, type II is a specific hydratase deficiency, and type III is a specific dehydrogenase deficiency. Different classes of HSD17B4 mutations are associated with each type of DBP deficiency. Type I deficiency is generally associated with nonsense mutations, frameshift mutations, or in-frame deletions of 20 or more residues in the dehydrogenase domain. In patients with type I deficiency, HSD17B4 protein is almost always undetectable in fibroblasts. Type II deficiency is associated with missense mutations or in-frame deletions in the hydratase domain, and type III deficiency is associated with missense mutations or single amino acid deletions in the dehydrogenase domain (PMID:20673864).

Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Perrault syndrome is a sex-influenced disorder characterized by sensorineural deafness in both males and females and ovarian dysgenesis in females. Some patients also have neurologic manifestations, including mild mental retardation and cerebellar and peripheral nervous system involvement (summary ...
Clinical Description OMIM Perrault et al. (1951) described 2 sisters with a syndrome comprising sensorineural deafness and ovarian dysgenesis. The parents were cousins, suggesting autosomal recessive inheritance. Josso et al. (1963) restudied the sisters reported by Perrault et al. (1951) as ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Pierce et al. (2010) performed whole-exome sequencing of genomic DNA from 1 of the sisters with Perrault syndrome previously described by McCarthy and Opitz (1985) and Fiumara et al. (2004) and identified 2 rare variants in the HSD17B4 ...
