Outline of personalized screening strategy used to identify and isolate neoantigen specific T-cell receptors circulating in the blood of GI cancer patients. (i) Lymphocytes were sorted from a pre-treatment peripheral blood sample or leukapheresis product based on PD-1 expression and expanded in vitro for 14 days, and autologous antigen presenting cells (APCs) were established. (ii) Fresh or archive formalin fixed paraffin embedded tumor biopsies were used to perform tumor WES and, when possible, RNA sequencing to identify non-synonymous mutations (NSM), and this information was used to synthesize mutated 25-mers or concatenated mutated minigenes encoding for all the candidate neoantigens. (ii) T cells were screened for recognition of putative neaontigens by co-culturing the effector T cells subsets with autologous APCs pulsed with or encoding for all the NSM identified. (iv) Cells upregulating 4-1BB following co-culture with a specific neoantigen were sorted to high purity and either (va) expanded non-specifically in vitro or (vb) isolated at the single cell level. (vi) DNA or RNA was extracted from ex vivo expanded and/or single cells from (va) and (vb) and TRA and TRB sequencing was performed to identify candidate neoantigen-reactive TCR-αβ pairs. (vii) Variable TRA and TRB pairs identified were cloned into a retroviral vector to (viii) generate a retrovirus used to (ix) infect and express the candidate neoantigen-specific TCR in peripheral blood lymphocytes.

To address this issue, we sequenced the OR repertoire in 332 individuals and examined the relationship between genetic variation and 276 olfactory phenotypes, including the perceived intensity and pleasantness of 68 odorants at two concentrations, detection thresholds of three odorants, and general olfactory acuity.

    ZNF354C Is a Transcriptional Repressor That Inhibits Endothelial Angiogenic Sprouting James A

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN ZNF354C is a transcriptional repressor that inhibits endothelial angiogenic sprouting James A. Oo1,3, Barnabas Irmer1, Stefan Günther2, Timothy Warwick1, Katalin Pálf1, Judit Izquierdo Ponce1, Tom Teichmann1, Beatrice Pfüger‑Müller1,3, Ralf Gilsbach1,3, Ralf P. Brandes1,3 & Matthias S. Leisegang1,3* Zinc fnger proteins (ZNF) are a large group of transcription factors with diverse functions. We recently discovered that endothelial cells harbour a specifc mechanism to limit the action of ZNF354C, whose function in endothelial cells is unknown. Given that ZNF354C has so far only been studied in bone and tumour, its function was determined in endothelial cells. ZNF354C is expressed in vascular cells and localises to the nucleus and cytoplasm. Overexpression of ZNF354C in human endothelial cells results in a marked inhibition of endothelial sprouting. RNA‑sequencing of human microvascular endothelial cells with and without overexpression of ZNF354C revealed that the protein is a potent transcriptional repressor. ZNF354C contains an active KRAB domain which mediates this suppression as shown by mutagenesis analysis. ZNF354C interacts with dsDNA, TRIM28 and histones, as observed by proximity ligation and immunoprecipitation. Moreover, chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed that the ZNF binds to specifc endothelial‑relevant target‑gene promoters. ZNF354C suppresses these genes as shown by CRISPR/Cas knockout and RNAi. Inhibition of endothelial sprouting by ZNF354C is dependent on the amino acids DV and MLE of the KRAB domain. These results demonstrate that ZNF354C is a repressive transcription factor which acts through a KRAB domain to inhibit endothelial angiogenic sprouting. Te vascular system is controlled by numerous signaling pathways and growth factors which all contribute to the regulation of gene expression.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Human mutagenesis is largely random, thus large Introduction coding regions, simply on the basis of probability, represent relatively large mutagenesis targets. Thus, we considered Genetic damage is largely random and therefore tends to the possibility that large cytoskeletal-protein related coding affect the larger, functional regions of the human genome regions (CPCRs), including extra-cellular matrix (ECM) more frequently than the smaller regions (1).

    Identification of Eqtls and Sqtls Associated with Meat Quality in Beef Joel D

    Leal-Gutiérrez et al. BMC Genomics (2020) 21:104 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-020-6520-5 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Identification of eQTLs and sQTLs associated with meat quality in beef Joel D. Leal-Gutiérrez*, Mauricio A. Elzo and Raluca G. Mateescu Abstract Background: Transcription has a substantial genetic control and genetic dissection of gene expression could help us understand the genetic architecture of complex phenotypes such as meat quality in cattle. The objectives of the present research were: 1) to perform eQTL and sQTL mapping analyses for meat quality traits in longissimus dorsi muscle; 2) to uncover genes whose expression is influenced by local or distant genetic variation; 3) to identify expression and splicing hot spots; and 4) to uncover genomic regions affecting the expression of multiple genes. Results: Eighty steers were selected for phenotyping, genotyping and RNA-seq evaluation. A panel of traits related to meat quality was recorded in longissimus dorsi muscle. Information on 112,042 SNPs and expression data on 8588 autosomal genes and 87,770 exons from 8467 genes were included in an expression and splicing quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping (eQTL and sQTL, respectively). A gene, exon and isoform differential expression analysis previously carried out in this population identified 1352 genes, referred to as DEG, as explaining part of the variability associated with meat quality traits. The eQTL and sQTL mapping was performed using a linear regression model in the R package Matrix eQTL. Genotype and year of birth were included as fixed effects, and population structure was accounted for by including as a covariate the first PC from a PCA analysis on genotypic data.
