SummaryA virtually complete deficiency of hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) causes Lesch-Nyhan syndrome. A novel mutation of HPRT gene in a Japanese Lesch-Nyhan family has been identified using mRNA and genomic DNA from peripheral blood cells. A single nucleotide substitution of T to C in exon 3 resulted in a mis-sensemutation, CTC (Leu) to CCC (Pro), at codon 65. Utilizing an MnlI restriction site which was lost in the mutation as an indicator,a family study showed that the mother was normal not having the mutant gene. The mutation was a de novo event that had occurred in the germ cells of the mother or in the proband during the early phase of fetal development.
