This mutation, destroying a Hinf1 recognition site, was searched for in Hungarian acatalasemic (2) and hypocatalasemic (22) patients and in controls (27) by Hinf1 digestion and sequence analyses of a 203 bp polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product containing the entire exon 4. The Hinf1 polymorphism did not reveal any difference between controls and hypocatalasemic as well as acatalasemic patients. These results were confirmed by sequence analyses showing the T nucleotide for the two acatalasemic and for one unrelated hypocatalasemic patient, as well as for two controls. These findings represent further evidence that acatalasemia is heterogeneous at the DNA level.

The decrease of blood catalase with age was greater in males (b = 0.084 MU/1 year) than in females (b = -0.016 MU/1 year). The screening of 3300 healthy citizens for hypocatalasemia yielded six families (0.18%), and three families were identified out of 1630 clinic patients. These nine families revealed 37 hypocatalasemic patients with 57.5 ± 11.7 MU/I mean and S.D. of blood catalase activity. Similarly to the Japanese and the Hungarian actalasemic patients, the electrophoretic mobilities of catalase in erythrocytes of hypocatalasemic patients were indistinguishable from that of healthy controls.
