CTNS mutations in patients with cystinosis†

open access: yesHuman Mutation, 1999
Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the gene CTNS. The CTNS gene product, cystinosin, has 367 amino acids and seven transmembrane domains and is thought to transport cystine out of lysosomes.

Nephropathic cystinosis: an international consensus document. [PDF]

open access: yesNephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2014
Cystinosis is caused by mutations in the CTNS gene (17p13.2), which encodes for a lysosomal cystine/proton symporter termed cystinosin. It is the most common cause of inherited renal Fanconi syndrome in young children.

CYSTINOSIS IN AN ADULT

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1957
• In contrast to the disease in children, which is usually fatal, cystinosis (deposits of cystine crystals in tissues of the body) in the two reported instances occurring in adults was a relatively benign condition. This condition, sometimes called Lignac-Fanconi syndrome, should not be confused with benign cystinuria of adults, in which the cystine ...

Cystinosis

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 1995
SummaryNephropathic cystinosis is an autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism characterized by the lysosomal storage of the disulphide amino acid cystine. It produces a variety of clinical manifestations including failure to thrive, the renal Fanconi syndrome, eye findings, and end‐stage renal disease.
