Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play critical roles in colorectal tumorigenesis; however, the contributions of lncRNAs to human CRC remain largely unknown. In this study, we report that LINC00265 is upregulated and predicts poor clinical outcome in human patients with CRC. Depletion of LINC00265 and ZMIZ2 distinctly attenuates colorectal tumorigenesis in mice. Mechanistically, LINC00265 augments ZMIZ2 expression by acting as an endogenous sponge against several miRNAs, which directly target ZMIZ2 expression. Moreover, ZMIZ2 recruits the enzyme USP7, which β β 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: deubiquitylates and stabilizes -catenin, thereby facilitating colorectal tumorigenesis. In addition, -catenin mediates LINC00265 and ZMIZ2 oncogenic phenotypes. Taken together, the LINC00265-ZMIZ2-β-catenin signaling axis plays a critical role in the colorectal tumorigenesis, which may be a potential therapeutic target. Introduction signaling, which control cell proliferation and survival, thus promoting colorectal tumorigenesis [3–5]. Colorectal cancer (CRC) imposes a pronounced cause of The WNT/β-catenin signaling is highly activated in CRC morbidity and mortality worldwide, and its pathogenesis is [5, 6]. Without WNT stimulation, cytoplasmic β-catenin is heterogeneous [1]. CRC risk is attributed to heritable factors, degraded by the destruction complex including adenoma- others such as inflammatory bowel disease and an unhealthy tous polyposis coli (APC), Axin, glycogen synthase kinase lifestyle and diet, which exacerbates CRC incidence [2]. (GSK)-3, casein kinase Iα (CKIα) and the E3-ubiquitin Oncogenic mutations in KRAS lead to deregulation of several ligase β-TrCP. β-catenin phosphorylation by GSK-3 and effector pathways, like phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) CKIα facilitates β-TrCP-mediated β-catenin ubiquitination and degradation in the proteasome [6, 7].

Essential Genes And Their Role In Autism Spectrum Disorder Abstract Essential genes (EGs) play central roles in fundamental cellular processes and are required for the survival of an organism. EGs are enriched for human disease genes and are under strong purifying selection. This intolerance to deleterious mutations, commonly observed haploinsufficiency and the importance of EGs in pre- and postnatal development suggests a possible cumulative effect of deleterious variants in EGs on complex neurodevelopmental disorders. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous, highly heritable neurodevelopmental syndrome characterized by impaired social interaction, communication and repetitive behavior. More and more genetic evidence points to a polygenic model of ASD and it is estimated that hundreds of genes contribute to ASD. The central question addressed in this dissertation is whether genes with a strong effect on survival and fitness (i.e. EGs) play a specific oler in ASD risk. I compiled a comprehensive catalog of 3,915 mammalian EGs by combining human orthologs of lethal genes in knockout mice and genes responsible for cell-based essentiality.

  • Whole Exome Sequencing in Adult-Onset Hearing Loss Reveals A
    Lewis et al. BMC Medical Genomics (2018) 11:77 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12920-018-0395-1 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Whole exome sequencing in adult-onset hearing loss reveals a high load of predicted pathogenic variants in known deafness-associated genes and identifies new candidate genes Morag A. Lewis1,2, Lisa S. Nolan3, Barbara A. Cadge3, Lois J. Matthews4, Bradley A. Schulte4, Judy R. Dubno4, Karen P. Steel1,2† and Sally J. Dawson3*† Abstract Background: Deafness is a highly heterogenous disorder with over 100 genes known to underlie human non- syndromic hearing impairment. However, many more remain undiscovered, particularly those involved in the most common form of deafness: adult-onset progressive hearing loss. Despite several genome-wide association studies of adult hearing status, it remains unclear whether the genetic architecture of this common sensory loss consists of multiple rare variants each with large effect size or many common susceptibility variants each with small to medium effects. As next generation sequencing is now being utilised in clinical diagnosis, our aim was to explore the viability of diagnosing the genetic cause of hearing loss using whole exome sequencing in individual subjects as in a clinical setting. Methods: We performed exome sequencing of thirty patients selected for distinct phenotypic sub-types from well- characterised cohorts of 1479 people with adult-onset hearing loss. Results: Every individual carried predicted pathogenic variants in at least ten deafness-associated genes; similar findings were obtained from an analysis of the 1000 Genomes Project data unselected for hearing status. We have identified putative causal variants in known deafness genes and several novel candidate genes, including NEDD4 and NEFH that were mutated in multiple individuals.
