Many Alexander-disease patients are heterozygous for one of a set of point mutations in the GFAP gene, all of which result in amino acid substitutions. The biological effects of the most common alteration, R239C, were tested by expressing the mutated protein in cultured cells by transient transfection. In primary rat astrocytes and Cos-7 cells, the mutant GFAP was incorporated into filament networks along with the endogenous GFAP and vimentin, respectively. In SW13Vim\u2013 cells, which have no endogenous cytoplasmic intermediate filaments, wild-type human GFAP frequently formed filamentous bundles, whereas the R239C GFAP formed `diffuse' and irregular patterns. Filamentous bundles of R239C GFAP were sometimes formed in SW13Vim\u2013 cells when wild-type GFAP was co-transfected. Although the presence of a suitable coassembly partner (vimentin or GFAP) reduced the potential negative effects of the R239C mutation on GFAP network formation, the mutation affected the stability of GFAP in cells in a dominant fashion. Extraction of transfected SW13Vim\u2013 cells with Triton-X-100-containing buffers showed that the mutant GFAP was more resistant to solubilization at elevated KCl concentrations. Both wild-type and R239C GFAP assembled into 10 nm filaments with similar morphology in vitro. Thus, although the R239C mutation does not appear to affect filament formation per se, the mutation alters the normal solubility and organization of GFAP networks.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1242\/jcs.02339","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,20]],"date-time":"2005-04-20T00:24:16Z","timestamp":1113956656000},"page":"2057-2065","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":72,"title":["Alexander-disease mutation of<i>GFAP<\/i>causes filament disorganization and decreased solubility of GFAP"],"prefix":"10.1242","volume":"118","author":[{"given":"Victoria C.","family":"Hsiao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and the Center for Neurobiology and Behavior, Columbia University, New York, NY 10032, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rujin","family":"Tian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and the Center for Neurobiology and Behavior, Columbia University, New York, NY 10032, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Heather","family":"Long","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biological and Medical Sciences, University of Durham, Durham, DH1 3LE, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ming","family":"Der Perng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biological and Medical Sciences, University of Durham, Durham, DH1 3LE, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Brenner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurobiology, and The Civitan International Research Center, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL 35294, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roy A.","family":"Quinlan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biological and Medical Sciences, University of Durham, Durham, DH1 3LE, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"James E.","family":"Goldman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and the Center for Neurobiology and Behavior, Columbia University, New York, NY 10032, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"237","reference":[{"key":"2021042519232713500_REF1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Alexander, W.
