Analysis of a rare functional truncating mutation rs61757459 in vaspin (SERPINA12) on circulating vaspin levels
FunctionalN=4,019Breitfeld J. et al.(2013)· Journal of Molecular Medicine

This study identifies rs61757459 in SERPINA12 (vaspin) as a rare functional truncating variant (p.R211X) that results in a premature stop codon and is associated with lower circulating vaspin levels, particularly in children. Structural modeling and protein expression experiments demonstrate that the truncated vaspin protein lacks core structural elements (reactive center loop, central β-sheet), leading to misfolding and instability with degradation before secretion in HEK293 cells.
