https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Itgb1bp1 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Itgb1bp1 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Itgb1bp1 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_008403 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000062352 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 12. 7 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TGA stop codon in exon 7 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000076260). Exon 3 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Itgb1bp1 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP24-149N4 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 allele exhibit postnatal lethality, reduced weight and length, reduced ossification, and skull and skeleton abnormalities. Mice homozygous for a gene trap mutation are viable and do not exhibit any obvious abnormalites. Exon 3 starts from about 12.17% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 3 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 2 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 2501 bp, and the size of intron 3 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 1917 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~579 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

No significant tandem repeat is found in the dot plot matrix. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.

No significant high GC-content region is found. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.

Lipid is stored in two major classes of depots, namely visceral adipose (VA) and subcutaneous adipose (SA) depots. Increased visceral adiposity is associated with adverse health outcomes, whereas the impact of SA tissue is relatively metabolically benign. The precise molecular features associated with the functional diferences between the adipose depots are still not well understood. Here, we characterised transcriptomes and methylomes of isolated adipocytes from matched SA and VA tissues of individuals with normal BMI to identify epigenetic diferences and their contribution to cell type and depot-specifc function. We found that DNA methylomes were notably distinct between diferent adipocyte depots and were associated with diferential gene expression within pathways fundamental to adipocyte function. Most striking diferential methylation was found at transcription factor and developmental genes. Our fndings highlight the importance of developmental origins in the function of diferent fat depots.

Stoyanova1,2*#, Radoslava Vazharova3,4#, Aleksandar Linev2, Ivan Ivanov1,2, Samuil Ivanov4, Lubomir Balabanski4, Draga Toncheva4,5 1Medical University - Plovdiv, Department of Pediatrics and Medical Genetics, Plovdiv, Bulgaria 2University Hospital „St. George „- Plovdiv, Bulgaria 3Sofia University „St. Kliment Ohridski“, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Biology, Medical Genetics and Microbiology, Sofia, Bulgaria 4Gynecology and Assisted Reproduction Hospital «Dr. Malinov»; Sofia, Bulgaria 5Medical University - Sofia, Department of Medical Genetics, Bulgaria Abstract Interstitial microdeletions of the distal 2p are very rare. A small number of cases have been reported in the literature, involving regions 2p23-p25, 2p23-p24 and 2p24-p25. The most common symptoms involve: intrauterine growth retardation, developmental delay, mental retardation, microcephaly, craniofacial anomalies, musculoskeletal abnormalities, congenital heart defect and hearing impairment. Herein we report on a Caucasian girl, born after in vitro fertilization with discrete facial dysmorphism, growth failure, borderline neurodevelopment and congenital heart defect. A de novo pericentric inversion of chromosome 2 was identified by routine karyotyping. An interstitial microdeletion of 2p24.3p25.1 was found by array karyotyping and following FISH analysis revealed that the deletion affects the inverted chromosome 2. This case illustrates the utility of high resolution methods to identify submicroscopic quantitative changes in structurally rearranged chromosomes. The precise determination of the genetic content of small quantitative changes in the genome provides important information for genetic counseling, enabling to predict the course of disease and the planning of adequate therapy and prophylaxis in affected families.

Profiling variable-number tandem repeat variation across populations using repeat-pangenome graphs Tsung-Yu Lu, The Human Genome Structural Variation Consortium, Mark Chaisson Abstract Variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) are genetic loci composed of consecutive repeats of short segments of DNA, with hypervariable repeat count and composition across individuals. Many genes have coding VNTR sequences, and noncoding VNTR variants are associated with a wide spectrum of clinical disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, bipolar disorder and colorectal cancer. The identification of VNTR length and composition provides the basis for downstream analysis such as expression quantitative trait loci discovery and genome wide association studies. Disease studies that use high-throughput short read sequencing do not resolve the repeat structures of many VNTR loci because the VNTR sequence is missing from the reference or is too repetitive to map. We solve the VNTR mapping problem for short reads by representing a collection of genomes with a repeat-pangenome graph, a data structure that encodes both the population diversity and repeat structure of VNTR loci. We developed software to build a repeat-pangenome using haplotype-resolved single-molecule sequencing assemblies, and to estimate VNTR length and sequence composition based on the alignment of short read sequences to the graph.

Very little has been done with underpin much of the difference among individuals and many other tissues because of their inaccessibility. However, it is well of the quantitative traits of interest to geneticists. Despite this, established that mRNA is stable postmortem in the human brain8, http://www.nature.com/naturegenetics there has been little work on genetic variability in human gene and our and others’ studies have shown that the apolipoprotein expression and almost none in the human brain, because E(APOE) and microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT)genes tools for assessing this genetic variability have not been are subject to distortions in allelic expression9–11.Additionally,several available. Now, with whole-genome SNP genotyping arrays studies using inbred mouse strains have mapped important expression and whole-transcriptome expression arrays, such experiments quantitative trait loci (eQTL) in the mouse brain1–3.Withthisback- have become feasible. We have carried out whole-genome ground, we developed a resource that allows the assessment of the genotyping and expression analysis on a series of 193 genetic effects on normal human cortical gene expression.

Here, we report that a major target of H1-mediated regulation in embryonic stem (ES) cells is the X-linked Rhox homeobox gene cluster. To address the underlying mechanism, we examined the founding member of the Rhox gene cluster—Rhox5—and found that its distal promoter (Pd) loses H1, undergoes demethylation, and is transcriptionally activated in response to loss of H1 genes in ES cells.

    Identification of Significant Pathways in Gastric Cancer Based on Protein-Protein Interaction Networks and Cluster Analysis

Printed in Brazil www.sbg.org.br Research Article Identification of significant pathways in gastric cancer based on protein-protein interaction networks and cluster analysis Kongwang Hu1 and Feihu Chen2 1Department of General Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Anhui, P.R. China. 2School of Pharmacology, Anhui Medical University, Anhui, P.R. China. Abstract Gastric cancer is one of the most common and lethal cancers worldwide. However, despite its clinical importance, the regulatory mechanisms involved in the aggressiveness of this cancer are still poorly understood. A better under- standing of the biology, genetics and molecular mechanisms of gastric cancer would be useful in developing novel targeted approaches for treating this disease. In this study we used protein-protein interaction networks and cluster analysis to comprehensively investigate the cellular pathways involved in gastric cancer. A primary immunodefi- ciency pathway, focal adhesion, ECM-receptor interactions and the metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450 were identified as four important pathways associated with the progression of gastric cancer. The genes in these pathways, e.g., ZAP70, IGLL1, CD79A, COL6A3, COL3A1, COL1A1, CYP2C18 and CYP2C9, may be considered as potential therapeutic targets for gastric cancer.
