To detect cadmium ions, we constructed a specific microbial sensor and screened detecting cassettes and different fluorescence proteins. Blue fluorescence protein mTagBFP2 was selected as a reporter and a double-promoters model was used in the construction of the fusion reporter vector Pmer::merR-m-Pmer::mTagBFP2-pMD19-T. The reporter vector was then transformed into Escherichia coli MC4100 wild type strain. The medium, incubation time, initial density for induction, and the optimal detection range were determined. The specificity of the biosensor was also checked. The biosensor responded specifically to cadmium irons with low background, and the linear concentration range detection ranged from 0.1 to 75 μmol/L at the initial OD600 = 0.1 with 2 h incubation in IHMM medium. Thus we successfully constructed a specific biosensor to detect cadmium irons and provided useful strategies for development and optimization of microbial sensors to detect heavy metals.

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the clinical features and genetic mutations in a patient with mucolipidosis type II α/β by using next generation sequencing.
METHODS:
Clinical data of the patient was collected. Genomic DNA of the patient and her parents was extracted by a standard method. The patient was subjected to targeted sequencing using an Ion Ampliseq panel, which included genes related to mucolipidosis and mucopolysaccharidosis. Suspected mutations were verified by Sanger sequencing.
RESULTS:
Compound heterozygous mutations, namely c.1284+1G>T and c.1090C>T (p.Arg364*), were detected in the patient, which were respectively inherited from her mother and father. No other disease-causing mutation was detected in the patient. GNPTAB c.1090C>T was known to be pathogenic, while GNPTAB c.1284+1G>T is a novel mutation. The same mutations were not detected among 50 healthy controls.
CONCLUSION
The compound heterozygous mutations c.1284+1G>T and c.1090C>T (p.Arg364*) of GNPTAB gene probably account for the mucolipidosis type II α/β in the patient. NGS has a great value for the molecular diagnosis and typing of mucolipidosis.
