The mosaicism 46,XX/46,XX,del(10)(p13)/47,XX, +r/47,XX,del(10)(p13), +r was found in the lymphocytes and the fibroblasts of a patient with the following : profound mental retardation; craniofacial dysmorphism with frontal bossing, fine eyebrows, a large hypoplastic nasal bridge, prognathism of the upper jaw, thick lips; a long and thin neck; congenital heart disease; skeletal malformations, with club feet; and hypotonia and lax ligaments. These malformations, compatible with the trisomy 10p syndrome, suggest that the supernumerary ring chromosome was composed of 10p material. An increase of HK1 and GOT1 activities was found. This is in favour of a partial trisomy of chromosome 10. The relative frequencies of the clones constituting the mosaic vary from tissue to tissue and with time.

A male patient with mental retardation and typical clinical features of 10p trisomy syndrome was found to have a duplication of the short arm of chromosome 10 attached to the short arm of the Y chromosome. Quantitative evaluation of nine red cell enzymes showed significantly increased activity levels of HK1 and, to a lesser extent, of PK, PGI, 6PGD, and G6PD. It is suggested that the HK1 locus may be in the 10pter leads to p12 region. The increased levels of HK1 could affect other erythrocyte metabolic pathways slowing down the physiological rate of cellular senescence and result in increased activity levels of other cell-age-dependent enzymes.

The Ch 1 + 2 fraction has been marked by means of culture of Vibrio cholerae Ogawa HK1 on a synthetic medium containing leucine H3. The antigen distribution has been then studied before and after vaccination with the same non-marked antigen in normal and axenic mice, at the same time by the demonstration of radioactivity and radioimmunofluorescence in intestine, spleen, liver, kidney and thymus. Whichever the administration route, intestine and spleen are first stimulated, then more intensively with the second injection or ingestion. When administrated per os the fraction crosses the intestinal barrier and is fixed on the main lymphoid organs: intestine, spleen, thymus. After ingestion or injection into axenic mice, spleen is the first organ stimulated.

The sensitivity to gamma-rays of a hyperkinetic mutant (HK1), characterized by high metabolic activity, has been studied and compared with gamma-ray sensitivity of the wild-type Oregon-K. Radiation damage, as measured by the frequency of induced dominant lethals (DL) and sex-linked recessive lethals (SLRL), was more in HK1 as compared with Or-K. The maximal sensitivity differences for these parameters were observed in the first brood. Translocations, on the contrary, were in general fewer in the HK1 compared with Or-K. These results have been interpreted in terms of reduced repair of mutational lesions in the energy-stressed cells of KH1.

A previous method for red cell fractionation by density gradient centrifugation, using a swing-out rotor, has been scaled up to deal with larger volumes of red cells. This method, involving the use of a zonal rotor, is described and has been applied to the study of the decay of hexokinase in the red cells of normal individuals. Hexokinase activity was seen to fall very rapidly in the young cells followed by a much more gradual decline in older cells. It is estimated that the mature red cell probably contains no more than 2-3% of the hexokinase activity originally present in the reticulocyte. An electrophoretic study showed a changing pattern of the isozymes HK1 and HK2 with increasing cell age. HK2 declines very rapidly in the early fractions whereas HK1 appears to decay more gradually.

An electrophoretic system which gives a clear separation of human hexokinases HK1, HK2 and HK3 is described. The distribution of the hexokinase isozymes in various human tissues, both adult and fetal, is reported. Some properties of the isozymes were investigated. HK2 was found to be more thermolabile than HK1, and there was also a small but significant difference in molecular size. Unlike HK3, HK1 and HK2 are not inhibited by high glucose concentrations. Screening of red cell lysates from 800 unrelated European individuals revealed no genetic variants of HK1 and HK2. However, in view of their difference in properties, it seems probable that the HK1 and HK2 isozymes are determined by separate gene loci.

The proportion of hexokinase (HK; EC 2.7.1.1) isozyme 1 (HK1) that is bound to the outer mitochondrial membrane is tissue specific and developmentally regulated. HK activity is known to be markedly elevated in many cancer cells and a significant fraction is mitochondrial bound. This study examined the role of the 15-amino acid N-terminal domain of HK1 in binding to liver and hepatoma mitochondria. A chimeric reporter construct, pCMVHKCAT, encoding this HK1 domain coupled to the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene was electroporated into mouse Hepa 1-6 hepatoma cells. After digitonin treatment, cell fractions were assayed for HK, lactate dehydrogenase, and CAT activities. Digitonin (75 micrograms/mg of protein) caused cytosolic leak but 70% of HK remained with the pellet. HKCAT, like HK, remained predominantly with the pellet; CAT form the control, pCMVCAT, remained mostly unbound. Binding of membrane-free cell extracts to rat liver mitochondria in vitro showed 91% of the HKCAT bound, whereas only 12% of CAT bound. Specificity of HKCAT binding to mitochondria was demonstrated by competition of HK1 for HKCAT binding sites on rat liver mitochondria as well as by blockage of HKCAT binding by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, which covalently binds to porin and blocks HK1 binding. Deletional mutant constructs of HKCAT showed reduced binding with increasing deletion size. In summary, these studies demonstrate that the 15-amino acid N-terminal domain of HK1 is necessary and sufficient to confer mitochondrial binding properties to CAT and that there is specificity for this binding to the mitochondria.

Transiently activating (A-type) potassium (K) channels are important regulators of action potential and action potential firing frequencies. HK1 designates the first human cDNA that is highly homologous to the rat RCK4 cDNA that codes for an A-type K-channel. The HK1 channel is expressed in heart. By somatic cell hybrid analysis, the HK1 gene has been assigned to human chromosome 11p13-p14, the WAGR deletion region (Wilms tumor, aniridia, genito-urinary abnormalities and mental retardation). Subsequent pulsed field gel (PFG) analysis and comparison with the well-established PFG map of this region localized the gene to 11p14,200-600 kb telomeric to the FSHB gene.

Two partial-length cDNAs encoding the type 1 human hexokinase (ATP:D-hexose 6-phosphotransferase) were isolated from a placenta cDNA library using a 50-bp oligonucleotide synthesized according to the known sequence of human HK1. Using the larger (1.8 kb) cDNA insert as a probe and a panel of human-hamster somatic cell hybrids, we were able to assign the HK1 gene to the long arm of chromosome 10.

K+ channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. In the heart these channels are responsible for the rapid repolarizing phases of the action potential and are the targets of several antiarrhythmic drugs. Full-length cDNA clones were isolated from human ventricular libraries that encode two voltage-gated K+ channels. These two cDNAs, designated HK1 and HK2, encode proteins of 653 and 605 amino acids, respectively. HK1 is the human equivalent (98% identity) of an inactivating K+ channel previously described in rat heart (RHK1) whereas the HK2 channel is 86% identical to a cloned rat brain K+ channel (Kv1). The only amino acid sequence identity (72%) between HK1 and HK2 is within the central region containing the membrane spanning domains. Northern blot analysis of human mRNA indicated that HK1 is slightly more abundant in ventricle than atrium whereas HK2 is much more abundant in atrium relative to ventricle. Both channel transcripts are present in ventricle at levels equivalent to voltage-gated Na+ channels. Analysis of the gene encoding HK1 suggests the coding sequence is intronless and is represented once in the human genome.
