Download Validation Data PrimePCR™Assay Validation Report Gene Information Gene Name dachshund homolog 2 (Drosophila) Gene Symbol DACH2 Organism Human Gene Summary This gene is one of two genes which encode a protein similar to the Drosophila protein dachshund a transcription factor involved in cell fate determination in the eye limb and genital disc of the fly. The encoded protein contains two characteristic dachshund domains: an N-terminal domain responsible for DNA binding and a C-terminal domain responsible for protein-protein interactions. This gene is located on the X chromosome and is subject to inactivation by DNA methylation. The encoded protein may be involved in regulation of organogenesis and myogenesis and may play a role in premature ovarian failure. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Detected Coding Transcript(s) This is a list of the Ensembl transcript ID(s) that this assay will detect. Details for each transcript can be found on the Ensembl website at www.ensembl.org. Amplicon Context Sequence This is the amplicon sequence with additional base pairs added to the beginning and/or end of the sequence. This is in accordance with the minimum information for the publication of real-time quantitative PCR experiments (MIQE) guidelines. For details, please refer to the following publication, "Primer Sequence Disclosure: A Clarification of the MIQE Guidelines" (Bustin et al 2011). Chromosome Location This is the chromosomal location of the amplicon context sequence within the genome. Assay Design Exonic: Primers sit within the same exon in the mRNA transcript and can potentially co-amplify genomic DNA. If performing gene expression analysis, it is suggested that the samples be treated with a DNase to eliminate potential unwanted signal from contaminating genomic DNA. Exon-exon junction: One primer sits on an exon-exon junction in mRNA. When performing gene expression analysis, this design approach will prevent unwanted signal from contaminating genomic DNA. Intron-spanning: Primers sit within different exons while spanning a large intron in the mRNA (intron is greater than 750bp). When performing gene expression analysis, this design approach should limit potential unwanted signal from contaminating genomic DNA. Small intron-spanning: Primers sit within different exons with a short intron in between (intron is smaller than 750bp). Small introns may not prevent unwanted signal from contaminating genomic DNA. Efficiency Assay efficiency was determined using a seven-point standard curve from 20 copies to 20 million copies. While an efficiency of 100% represents a perfect doubling of template at every cycle and is ideal, typical ranges of good assay efficiency are between 90-110%. For difficult targets, assay efficiency outside of this range are accepted and reported accordingly. R2 The R2 represents the linearity of the standard curve and how well the standard curve data points fit the linear regression line. Acceptable values are >0.98. Page 4/5 PrimePCR™Assay Validation Report cDNA Cq Cq value obtained from 25ng of cDNA transcribed from universal RNA when performing wet-lab validation of the assay. Note: Not all genes will be expressed at a detectable level in the universal RNA sample. cDNA Tm Melting temperature of the amplicon when running a melt curve analysis. gDNA Cq Cq value obtained when running the assay with 2.5ng of genomic DNA. This is more than a moderate level of genomic DNA contamination. Intron-spanning and exon-exon junction assay designs can minimize or eliminate genomic DNA detection. Note: Genomic DNA contamination is often present at variable levels. If concerned about genomic DNA contamination, the genomic DNA contamination control assay is recommended to run with your sample to determine if genomic DNA levels are sufficient to negatively impact results. Specificity This value is the percent of specific amplicon reads as measured by next generation sequencing (NGS). While 100% specificity is desirable, small decreases in specificity (<1%) can be due to NGS read errors. More significant reductions are likely due to co-amplification of homologous regions. Note: Since gene expression can be cell type and condition specific, the exact level and impact of co-amplification in a given sample is impossible to predict. If co-amplification is detected, it should be taken into consideration and reported when analyzing gene expression results. Page 5/5.

  • Comparative Transcriptomics Reveals Similarities and Differences
    Seifert et al. BMC Cancer (2015) 15:952 DOI 10.1186/s12885-015-1939-9 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Comparative transcriptomics reveals similarities and differences between astrocytoma grades Michael Seifert1,2,5*, Martin Garbe1, Betty Friedrich1,3, Michel Mittelbronn4 and Barbara Klink5,6,7 Abstract Background: Astrocytomas are the most common primary brain tumors distinguished into four histological grades. Molecular analyses of individual astrocytoma grades have revealed detailed insights into genetic, transcriptomic and epigenetic alterations. This provides an excellent basis to identify similarities and differences between astrocytoma grades. Methods: We utilized public omics data of all four astrocytoma grades focusing on pilocytic astrocytomas (PA I), diffuse astrocytomas (AS II), anaplastic astrocytomas (AS III) and glioblastomas (GBM IV) to identify similarities and differences using well-established bioinformatics and systems biology approaches. We further validated the expression and localization of Ang2 involved in angiogenesis using immunohistochemistry. Results: Our analyses show similarities and differences between astrocytoma grades at the level of individual genes, signaling pathways and regulatory networks. We identified many differentially expressed genes that were either exclusively observed in a specific astrocytoma grade or commonly affected in specific subsets of astrocytoma grades in comparison to normal brain. Further, the number of differentially expressed genes generally increased with the astrocytoma grade with one major exception. The cytokine receptor pathway showed nearly the same number of differentially expressed genes in PA I and GBM IV and was further characterized by a significant overlap of commonly altered genes and an exclusive enrichment of overexpressed cancer genes in GBM IV. Additional analyses revealed a strong exclusive overexpression of CX3CL1 (fractalkine) and its receptor CX3CR1 in PA I possibly contributing to the absence of invasive growth.

  • Loss of DACH2 Is a Candidate Early Event in Breast and Ovarian Carcinogenesis
    Loss of DACH2 is a candidate early event in breast and ovarian carcinogenesis By Rania Chehade A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for Degree of Master of Science Medical Biophysics Department University of Toronto Copyright by Rania Chehade 2013 Loss of DACH2 is a candidate early event in breast and ovarian carcinogenesis Rania Chehade Master of Science Medical Biophysics Department University of Toronto 2013 Abstract Mechanistic insights into how enduring menstrual cycle hormonal signaling promotes tumorigenesis are emerging. We performed a genome-wide screen in primary epithelial cells to identify hormonally-regulated candidates that initiate pro-tumorigenic phenotypes in normal cells. One candidate, DACH2, has been described as part of a network that regulates organogenesis during development. In vitro, we find that DACH2 expression is regulated by estrogen and progesterone in a dosage dependent manner. Lentiviral-mediated shRNA silencing of DACH2 in hormonally responsive tissues promotes expansion of cells with progenitor characteristics. Within gene expression profiles of fallopian tubes, DACH2 is a member of a minimal gene classifier that distinguishes follicular versus luteal phases. Decreased DACH2 is characteristic of luteal-phase tubal cells and the majority of ovarian serous carcinomas. These studies suggest that DACH2 may orchestrate a physiological program that, when deregulated, locks cells in a progenitor-state, induces uncontrolled proliferation, and predisposes cells for breast and ovarian carcinogenesis. ii Acknowledgements Graduate school has been a bountiful journey of learning opportunities in academic, work and life relationships. I have developed various skills and I have matured both as a researcher and a human being. First and foremost, I would like to acknowledge my supervisor Dr.

  • Genetics of Premature Ovarian Insufficiency and the Association with X-Autosome Translocations
    160 4 REPRODUCTIONREVIEW Genetics of premature ovarian insufficiency and the association with X-autosome translocations Adriana Di-Battista, Mariana Moysés-Oliveira and Maria Isabel Melaragno Genetics Division, Department of Morphology and Genetics, Universidade Federal de São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil Correspondence should be addressed to M I Melaragno; Email: [email protected] Abstract Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is the cessation of menstruation before the age of 40 and can result from different etiologies, including genetic, autoimmune, and iatrogenic. Of the genetic causes, single-gene mutations and cytogenetic alterations, such as X-chromosome aneuploidies and chromosome rearrangements, can be associated with POI. In this review, we summarize the genetic factors linked to POI and list the main candidate genes. We discuss the association of these genes with the ovarian development, the functional consequences of different mutational mechanisms and biological processes that are frequently disrupted during POI pathogenesis. Additionally, we focus on the high prevalence of X-autosome translocations involving the critical regions in Xq, known as POI1 and POI2, and discuss in depth the main hypotheses proposed to explain this association. Although the incorrect pairing of chromosomes during meiosis could lead to oocyte apoptosis, the reason for the prevalence of X-chromosome breakpoints at specific regions remains unclear. In most cases, studies on genes disrupted by balanced structural rearrangements cannot explain the ovarian failure. Thus, the position effect has emerged as a putative explanation for genetic mechanisms as translocations possibly result in changes in overall chromatin topology due to chromosome repositioning. Given the tremendous impact of POI on women’s quality of life, we highlight the value of investigations in to the interplay between ovarian function and gene regulation to deepen our understanding of the molecular mechanisms related to this disease, with the ultimate goal of improving patients’ care and assistance.

As X chromosomal abnormalities are often recognized in POF patients, defects of X-linked gene may contribute to POF. Four cases of POF with t(X;autosome) were genetically analyzed. All the translocation breakpoints were determined at the nucleotide level. Interestingly, COL4A6 at Xq22.3 encoding collagen type IV alpha 6 was disrupted by the translocation in one case, but in the remaining three cases, breakpoints did not involve any X-linked genes. According to the breakpoint sequences, two translocations had microhomology of a few nucleotides and the other two showed insertion of 3–8 nucleotides with unknown origin, suggesting that non-homologous end-joining is related to the formation of all the translocations.
