Megaloblastic anemia 1 (MGA1) is an autosomal recessive disorder
caused by the selective intestinal malabsorption of intrinsic factor
(IF) and vitamin B12/cobalamin (Cbl) in complex. Most
Finnish patients with MGA1 carry the disease-specific P1297L mutation (FM1) in the IF-B12 receptor, cubilin. By site-directed
mutagenesis, mammalian expression, and functional comparison of the
purified wild-type and FM1 mutant forms of the IF-Cbl-binding cubilin
region (CUB domains 5-8, amino acid 928-1386), we have investigated the functional implications of the P1297L mutation. Surface plasmon resonance analysis revealed that the P1297L substitution specifically increases the Kd for IF-Cbl binding several-fold,
largely by decreasing the association rate constant. In agreement with
the binding data, the wild-type protein, but not the FM1 mutant
protein, potently inhibits 37°C uptake of iodine 125-IF-Cbl in
cubilin-expressing epithelial cells. In conclusion, the data presented
show a substantial loss in affinity of the FM1 mutant form of the
IF-Cbl binding region of cubilin. This now explains the malabsorption
of Cbl and Cbl-dependent anemia in MGA1 patients with the FM1 mutation.
