Mouse Mtus1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Mtus1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Mtus1 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Mtus1 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_001005863 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000045636 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 8. 14 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TGA stop codon in exon 14 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000059115). Exon 2~3 will be selected as target site. Cas9 and gRNA will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for KO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Mice homozygous for a gene trap allele exhibit spontaneous heart hypertrophy and SLE-like lymphoproliferative disease. Exon 2 starts from the coding region. Exon 2~3 covers 62.26% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~8609 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

  • Genetic Analysis of Retinopathy in Type 1 Diabetes
    Genetic Analysis of Retinopathy in Type 1 Diabetes by Sayed Mohsen Hosseini A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto © Copyright by S. Mohsen Hosseini 2014 Genetic Analysis of Retinopathy in Type 1 Diabetes Sayed Mohsen Hosseini Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto 2014 Abstract Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of blindness worldwide. Several lines of evidence suggest a genetic contribution to the risk of DR; however, no genetic variant has shown convincing association with DR in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). To identify common polymorphisms associated with DR, meta-GWAS were performed in three type 1 diabetes cohorts of White subjects: Diabetes Complications and Control Trial (DCCT, n=1304), Wisconsin Epidemiologic Study of Diabetic Retinopathy (WESDR, n=603) and Renin-Angiotensin System Study (RASS, n=239). Severe (SDR) and mild (MDR) retinopathy outcomes were defined based on repeated fundus photographs in each study graded for retinopathy severity on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) scale. Multivariable models accounted for glycemia (measured by A1C), diabetes duration and other relevant covariates in the association analyses of additive genotypes with SDR and MDR. Fixed-effects meta- analysis was used to combine the results of GWAS performed separately in WESDR, ii RASS and subgroups of DCCT, defined by cohort and treatment group. Top association signals were prioritized for replication, based on previous supporting knowledge from the literature, followed by replication in three independent white T1D studies: Genesis-GeneDiab (n=502), Steno (n=936) and FinnDiane (n=2194).

    DECIPHERING TRANSCRIPTIONAL PATTERNS OF GENE REGULATION: A COMPUTATIONAL APPROACH by Princy Parsana A dissertation submitted to The Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland July, 2020 © 2020 Princy Parsana All rights reserved Abstract With rapid advancements in sequencing technology, we now have the ability to sequence the entire human genome, and to quantify expression of tens of thousands of genes from hundreds of individuals. This provides an extraordinary opportunity to learn phenotype relevant genomic patterns that can improve our understanding of molecular and cellular processes underlying a trait. The high dimensional nature of genomic data presents a range of computational and statistical challenges. This dissertation presents a compilation of projects that were driven by the motivation to efficiently capture gene regulatory patterns in the human transcriptome, while addressing statistical and computational challenges that accompany this data. We attempt to address two major difficulties in this domain: a) artifacts and noise in transcriptomic data, andb) limited statistical power. First, we present our work on investigating the effect of artifactual variation in gene expression data and its impact on trans-eQTL discovery. Here we performed an in-depth analysis of diverse pre-recorded covariates and latent confounders to understand their contribution to heterogeneity in gene expression measurements. Next, we discovered 673 trans-eQTLs across 16 human tissues using v6 data from the Genotype Tissue Expression (GTEx) project. Finally, we characterized two trait-associated trans-eQTLs; one in Skeletal Muscle and another in Thyroid. Second, we present a principal component based residualization method to correct gene expression measurements prior to reconstruction of co-expression networks.

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.

  • Egfr Activates a Taz-Driven Oncogenic Program in Glioblastoma
    EGFR ACTIVATES A TAZ-DRIVEN ONCOGENIC PROGRAM IN GLIOBLASTOMA by Minling Gao A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland March 2020 ©2020 Minling Gao All rights reserved Abstract Hyperactivated EGFR signaling is associated with about 45% of Glioblastoma (GBM), the most aggressive and lethal primary brain tumor in humans. However, the oncogenic transcriptional events driven by EGFR are still incompletely understood. We studied the role of the transcription factor TAZ to better understand master transcriptional regulators in mediating the EGFR signaling pathway in GBM. The transcriptional coactivator with PDZ- binding motif (TAZ) and its paralog gene, the Yes-associated protein (YAP) are two transcriptional co-activators that play important roles in multiple cancer types and are regulated in a context-dependent manner by various upstream signaling pathways, e.g. the Hippo, WNT and GPCR signaling. In GBM cells, TAZ functions as an oncogene that drives mesenchymal transition and radioresistance. This thesis intends to broaden our understanding of EGFR signaling and TAZ regulation in GBM. In patient-derived GBM cell models, EGF induced TAZ and its known gene targets through EGFR and downstream tyrosine kinases (ERK1/2 and STAT3). In GBM cells with EGFRvIII, an EGF-independent and constitutively active mutation, TAZ showed EGF- independent hyperactivation when compared to EGFRvIII-negative cells. These results revealed a novel EGFR-TAZ signaling axis in GBM cells. The second contribution of this thesis is that we performed next-generation sequencing to establish the first genome-wide map of EGF-induced TAZ target genes.

  • Identification of Significant Genes with Poor Prognosis in Ovarian Cancer Via Bioinformatical Analysis
    Feng et al. Journal of Ovarian Research (2019) 12:35 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13048-019-0508-2 RESEARCH Open Access Identification of significant genes with poor prognosis in ovarian cancer via bioinformatical analysis Hao Feng1†, Zhong-Yi Gu2†, Qin Li2, Qiong-Hua Liu3, Xiao-Yu Yang4* and Jun-Jie Zhang2* Abstract Ovarian cancer (OC) is the highest frequent malignant gynecologic tumor with very complicated pathogenesis. The purpose of the present academic work was to identify significant genes with poor outcome and their underlying mechanisms. Gene expression profiles of GSE36668, GSE14407 and GSE18520 were available from GEO database. There are 69 OC tissues and 26 normal tissues in the three profile datasets. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between OC tissues and normal ovarian (OV) tissues were picked out by GEO2R tool and Venn diagram software. Next, we made use of the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) to analyze Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genome (KEGG) pathway and gene ontology (GO). Then protein-protein interaction (PPI) of these DEGs was visualized by Cytoscape with Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING). There were total of 216 consistently expressed genes in the three datasets, including 110 up-regulated genes enriched in cell division, sister chromatid cohesion, mitotic nuclear division, regulation of cell cycle, protein localization to kinetochore, cell proliferation and Cell cycle, progesterone-mediated oocyte maturation and p53 signaling pathway, while 106 down-regulated genes enriched in palate development, blood coagulation, positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter, axonogenesis, receptor internalization, negative regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter and no significant signaling pathways.

The advent of high-resolution SNP arrays has made it possible to identify CNVs. Characterization of widespread constitutional (germline) CNVs has provided insight into their role in susceptibility to a wide spectrum of diseases, and somatic CNVs can be used to identify regions of the genome involved in disease phenotypes. The role of CNVs as risk factors for cancer is currently underappreciated. However, the genomic instability and structural dynamism that characterize cancer cells would seem to make this form of genetic variation particularly intriguing to study in cancer. Here, we provide a detailed overview of the current understanding of the CNVs that arise in the human genome and explore the emerging literature that reveals associations of both constitutional and somatic CNVs with a wide variety of human cancers. Copy number variations: dynamic genomes receptor gene (CHRNA7) at 15q13-15 [2] and variation at the Our genomes are not the stable places we once thought they major histocompatibility complex locus [3].
