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.

Over the past decade, however, the essential contributions of glutathione to cellular iron metabolism have come more and more into focus. GSH is indispensable in mitochondrial iron-sulfur (FeS) cluster biosynthesis, primarily by co-ligating FeS clusters as a cofactor of the CGFS-type (class II) glutaredoxins (Grxs). GSH is required for the export of the yet to be defined FeS precursor from the mitochondria to the cytosol. In the cytosol, it is an essential cofactor, again of the multi-domain CGFS-type Grxs, master players in cellular iron and FeS trafficking. In this review, we summarize the recent advances and progress in this field. The most urgent open questions are discussed, such as the role of GSH in the export of FeS precursors from mitochondria, the physiological roles of the CGFS-type Grx interactions with BolA-like proteins and the cluster transfer between Grxs and recipient proteins.

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in

Abstract: Iron and sulfur are two essential elements for all organisms. These elements form the Fe-S clusters that are present as cofactors in numerous proteins and protein complexes related to key processes in cells, such as respiration and photosynthesis, and participate in numerous enzymatic reactions. In photosynthetic organisms, the ISC and SUF Fe-S cluster synthesis pathways are located in organelles, mitochondria, and chloroplasts, respectively. There is also a third biosynthetic machinery in the cytosol (CIA) that is dependent on the mitochondria for its function. The genes and proteins that participate in these assembly pathways have been described mainly in bacteria, yeasts, humans, and recently in higher plants. However, little is known about the proteins that participate in these processes in algae. This review work is mainly focused on releasing the information on the existence of genes and proteins of green algae (chlorophytes) that could participate in the assembly process of Fe-S groups, especially in the mitochondrial ISC and CIA pathways.

Murray1 1The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine 04609, USA; 2Cergentis B.V., 3584 CM Utrecht, The Netherlands; 3The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine, Farmington, Connecticut 06032, USA Transgenesis has been a mainstay of mouse genetics for over 30 yr, providing numerous models of human disease and critical genetic tools in widespread use today. Generated through the random integration of DNA fragments into the host genome, transgenesis can lead to insertional mutagenesis if a coding gene or an essential element is disrupted, and there is evidence that larger scale structural variation can accompany the integration. The insertion sites of only a tiny fraction of the thousands of transgenic lines in existence have been discovered and reported, due in part to limitations in the discovery tools. Targeted locus amplification (TLA) provides a robust and efficient means to identify both the insertion site and content of transgenes through deep sequencing of genomic loci linked to specific known transgene cassettes. Here, we report the first large-scale analysis of transgene insertion sites from 40 highly used transgenic mouse lines.

    Characterizing Genomic Duplication in Autism Spectrum Disorder by Edward James Higginbotham A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Graduate Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto © Copyright by Edward James Higginbotham 2020 i Abstract Characterizing Genomic Duplication in Autism Spectrum Disorder Edward James Higginbotham Master of Science Graduate Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto 2020 Duplication, the gain of additional copies of genomic material relative to its ancestral diploid state is yet to achieve full appreciation for its role in human traits and disease. Challenges include accurately genotyping, annotating, and characterizing the properties of duplications, and resolving duplication mechanisms. Whole genome sequencing, in principle, should enable accurate detection of duplications in a single experiment. This thesis makes use of the technology to catalogue disease relevant duplications in the genomes of 2,739 individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who enrolled in the Autism Speaks MSSNG Project. Fine-mapping the breakpoint junctions of 259 ASD-relevant duplications identified 34 (13.1%) variants with complex genomic structures as well as tandem (193/259, 74.5%) and NAHR- mediated (6/259, 2.3%) duplications. As whole genome sequencing-based studies expand in scale and reach, a continued focus on generating high-quality, standardized duplication data will be prerequisite to addressing their associated biological mechanisms. ii Acknowledgements I thank Dr. Stephen Scherer for his leadership par excellence, his generosity, and for giving me a chance.

Vortioxetine is a novel multimodal antidepressant that possesses pro-cognitive properties and diferentiates from other conventional antidepressants on various cognitive and plastic- ity measures. The aim of the present study was to identify biological systems rather than single biomarkers that may underlie vortioxetine’s treatment efects. Results: We show that the biological systems regulated by vortioxetine are overlapping between mouse and rat in response to distinct treatment regimens and in diferent brain regions. Furthermore, analysis of complexes of physically-interacting proteins reveal that biomarkers involved in transcriptional regulation, neurodevelopment, neu- roplasticity, and endocytosis are modulated by vortioxetine. A subsequent qPCR study examining the expression of targets in the protein–protein interactome space in response to chronic vortioxetine treatment over a range of doses provides further biological validation that vortioxetine engages neuroplasticity networks. Thus, the same biology is regulated in diferent species and sexes, diferent brain regions, and in response to distinct routes of administration and regimens. Conclusions: A recurring theme, based on the present study as well as previous fndings, is that networks related to synaptic plasticity, synaptic transmission, signal transduction, and neurodevelopment are modulated in response to vortioxetine treatment.
