https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Nckipsd Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Nckipsd conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Nckipsd gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_030729 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000032598 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 9. 13 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAG stop codon in exon 13 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000035218). Exon 3~5 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Nckipsd gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP24-372F13 as template. Cas9, gRNA and targeting vector will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for cKO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Mice homozygous for a null mutation exhibit altered protein composition of postsynaptic densities and actin cytoskeleton in hippocampal neurons. Exon 3 starts from about 13.17% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 3~5 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 2 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 393 bp, and the size of intron 5 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 1239 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~1607 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

    Defining Functional Interactions During Biogenesis of Epithelial Junctions

    ARTICLE Received 11 Dec 2015 | Accepted 13 Oct 2016 | Published 6 Dec 2016 | Updated 5 Jan 2017 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms13542 OPEN Defining functional interactions during biogenesis of epithelial junctions J.C. Erasmus1,*, S. Bruche1,*,w, L. Pizarro1,2,*, N. Maimari1,3,*, T. Poggioli1,w, C. Tomlinson4,J.Lees5, I. Zalivina1,w, A. Wheeler1,w, A. Alberts6, A. Russo2 & V.M.M. Braga1 In spite of extensive recent progress, a comprehensive understanding of how actin cytoskeleton remodelling supports stable junctions remains to be established. Here we design a platform that integrates actin functions with optimized phenotypic clustering and identify new cytoskeletal proteins, their functional hierarchy and pathways that modulate E-cadherin adhesion. Depletion of EEF1A, an actin bundling protein, increases E-cadherin levels at junctions without a corresponding reinforcement of cell–cell contacts. This unexpected result reflects a more dynamic and mobile junctional actin in EEF1A-depleted cells. A partner for EEF1A in cadherin contact maintenance is the formin DIAPH2, which interacts with EEF1A. In contrast, depletion of either the endocytic regulator TRIP10 or the Rho GTPase activator VAV2 reduces E-cadherin levels at junctions. TRIP10 binds to and requires VAV2 function for its junctional localization. Overall, we present new conceptual insights on junction stabilization, which integrate known and novel pathways with impact for epithelial morphogenesis, homeostasis and diseases. 1 National Heart and Lung Institute, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 2 Computing Department, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 3 Bioengineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 4 Department of Surgery & Cancer, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK.

  • Prediction of Age at Onset in Parkinson's Disease Using Objective

    Prediction of Age at Onset in Parkinson's Disease Using Objective

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Prediction of age at onset in Parkinson’s disease using objective specifc neuroimaging genetics based on a sparse canonical correlation analysis Ji Hye Won1,2, Mansu Kim1,2, Jinyoung Youn3,4* & Hyunjin Park2,5* The age at onset (AAO) is an important determinant in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Neuroimaging genetics is suitable for studying AAO in PD as it jointly analyzes imaging and genetics. We aimed to identify features associated with AAO in PD by applying the objective-specifc neuroimaging genetics approach and constructing an AAO prediction model. Our objective-specifc neuroimaging genetics extended the sparse canonical correlation analysis by an additional data type related to the target task to investigate possible associations of the imaging–genetic, genetic–target, and imaging– target pairs simultaneously. The identifed imaging, genetic, and combined features were used to construct analytical models to predict the AAO in a nested fve-fold cross-validation. We compared our approach with those from two feature selection approaches where only associations of imaging– target and genetic–target were explored. Using only imaging features, AAO prediction was accurate in all methods. Using only genetic features, the results from other methods were worse or unstable compared to our model. Using both imaging and genetic features, our proposed model predicted the AAO well (r = 0.5486). Our fndings could have signifcant impacts on the characterization of prodromal PD and contribute to diagnosing PD early because genetic features could be measured accurately from birth. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder and presents with various motor and non-motor symptoms1.

    Identification of Regions of Positive Selection Using Shared Genomic Segment Analysis

    European Journal of Human Genetics (2011) 19, 667–671 & 2011 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1018-4813/11 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE Identification of regions of positive selection using Shared Genomic Segment analysis Zheng Cai*,1, Nicola J Camp2, Lisa Cannon-Albright2,3 and Alun Thomas2 We applied a shared genomic segment (SGS) analysis, incorporating an error model, to identify complete, or near complete, selective sweeps in the HapMap phase II data sets. This method is based on detecting heterozygous sharing across all individuals within a population, to identify regions of sharing with at least one allele in common. We identified multiple interesting regions, many of which are concordant with positive selection regions detected by previous population genetic tests. Others are suggested to be novel regions. Our finding illustrates the utility of SGS as a method for identifying regions of selection, and some of these regions have been proposed to be candidate regions for harboring disease genes.

The CLR test searches for a signature of recent ‘complete’ selective immense opportunity for studying population genetics, allowing the sweep using pooled data from various populations. This test applies development of catalogs for signatures of selection, structural variants, genomic window approach, comparing spatial patterns of allele fre- and haplotype assortment.

Here we present the data obtained from 2345 acute leukemia patients. Genomic breakpoints within the MLL gene and the involved translocation partner genes (TPGs) were determined and 11 novel TPGs were identified. Thus, a total of 135 different MLL rearrangements have been identified so far, of which 94 TPGs are now characterized at the molecular level. In all, 35 out of these 94 TPGs occur recurrently, but only 9 specific gene fusions account for more than 90% of all illegitimate recombinations of the MLL gene.
  • Human Genetics of Mycobacterial Disease

    Human Genetics of Mycobacterial Disease

    Mammalian Genome (2018) 29:523–538 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00335-018-9765-4 Human genetics of mycobacterial disease Monica Dallmann‑Sauer1,2,3 · Wilian Correa‑Macedo1,2,4 · Erwin Schurr1,2,3,4 Received: 30 March 2018 / Accepted: 23 July 2018 / Published online: 16 August 2018 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract Mycobacterial diseases are caused by members of the genus Mycobacterium, acid-fast bacteria characterized by the presence of mycolic acids within their cell walls. Claiming almost 2 million lives every year, tuberculosis (TB) is the most common mycobacterial disease and is caused by infection with M. tuberculosis and, in rare cases, by M. bovis or M. africanum. The second and third most common mycobacterial diseases are leprosy and buruli ulcer (BU), respectively. Both diseases affect the skin and can lead to permanent sequelae and deformities. Leprosy is caused by the uncultivable M. leprae while the etiological agent of BU is the environmental bacterium M. ulcerans. After exposure to these mycobacterial species, a majority of individuals will not progress to clinical disease and, among those who do, inter-individual variability in disease manifestation and outcome can be observed. Susceptibility to mycobacterial diseases carries a human genetic component and intense efforts have been applied over the past decades to decipher the exact nature of the genetic factors controlling disease susceptibility. While for BU this search was mostly conducted on the basis of candidate genes association studies, genome-wide approaches have been widely applied for TB and leprosy. In this review, we summarize some of the findings achieved by genome-wide linkage, association and transcriptome analyses in TB disease and leprosy and the recent genetic findings for BU susceptibility.
