Based on a previously defined consensus motif, we identified the complete set of bHLH protein family from the mouse proteome dat- abases and carried out a series of bioinformatics analysis. As results, 124 mouse bHLH proteins were identified in this study, and 28 of them were additional bHLH proteins beyond the previous report. These 124 mouse bHLH proteins were classified into groups from A to F by the nomenclature and phylogenetic analysis. Statistic analysis of the Gene Ontology annotation of these proteins showed that the bHLH proteins tend to perform functions related to cell differentiation and development. Gene function enrichmeznt analysis among six groups illuminated that the proteins in certain group tend to have special biology functions, so that the molecular function of the unchar- acterized proteins in groups could be inferred.

  • CDK5: Key Regulator of Apoptosis and Cell Survival
    biomedicines Review CDK5: Key Regulator of Apoptosis and Cell Survival Rabih Roufayel * and Nimer Murshid * College of Engineering and Technology, American University of the Middle East, Kuwait City 15453, Kuwait * Correspondence: [email protected] (R.R.); [email protected] (N.M.); Tel.: +965-222-514-00 (R.R. & N.M.) Received: 28 October 2019; Accepted: 5 November 2019; Published: 6 November 2019 Abstract: The atypical cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) is considered as a neuron-specific kinase that plays important roles in many cellular functions including cell motility and survival. The activation of CDK5 is dependent on interaction with its activator p35, p39, or p25. These activators share a CDK5-binding domain and form a tertiary structure similar to that of cyclins. Upon activation, CDK5/p35 complexes localize primarily in the plasma membrane, cytosol, and perinuclear region. Although other CDKs are activated by cyclins, binding of cyclin D and E showed no effect on CDK5 activation. However, it has been shown that CDK5 can be activated by cyclin I, which results in anti-apoptotic functions due to the increased expression of Bcl-2 family proteins. Treatment with the CDK5 inhibitor roscovitine sensitizes cells to heat-induced apoptosis and its phosphorylation, which results in prevention of the apoptotic protein functions. Here, we highlight the regulatory mechanisms of CDK5 and its roles in cellular processes such as gene regulation, cell survival, and apoptosis. Keywords: CDK5; p25 phosphorylation; p35; p39; neural apoptosis 1. Introduction The proline-directed serine/threonine cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) is an atypical member of the well-studied family of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) [1].

Carvill, PhD ABSTRACT Sarah Weckhuysen, MD Objective: To determine the genes underlying Dravet syndrome in patients who do not have an Jacinta M. McMahon, SCN1A mutation on routine testing. BSc Methods: We performed whole-exome sequencing in 13 SCN1A-negative patients with Dravet syn- Corinna Hartmann drome and targeted resequencing in 67 additional patients to identify new genes for this disorder. Rikke S. Møller, MSc, PhD Results: We detected disease-causing mutations in 2 novel genes for Dravet syndrome, with GABRA1 STXBP1 Helle Hjalgrim, MD, PhD mutations in in 4 cases and in 3. Furthermore, we identified 3 patients with SCN1A SCN1A Joseph Cook, MS previously undetected mutations, suggesting that mutations occur in even more ; Eileen Geraghty, BA than the currently accepted 75% of cases.

  • You Can Check If Genes Are Captured by the Agilent Sureselect V5 Exome
    IIHG Clinical Exome Sequencing Test Gene Coverage • Whole Exome Sequencing is a targeted capture platform which does not capture the entire exome. Regions not captured by the exome will not be analyzed. o Please note, it is important to understand the absence of a reportable variant in a given gene does not mean there are not pathogenic variants in that gene. • Data sensitivity and specificity for exome testing is variable as gene coverage is not uniform throughout the exome. • The Agilent SureSelect XT Human All Exon v5 kit captures ~98% of Refseq coding base pairs, and >94% of the captured coding bases in the exome are covered at our depth-of-coverage minimum threshold (30 reads). • All test reports include the following information: o Regions of the Symptom Candidate Gene List which were not captured by the current exome capture platform. o Regions of the Symptom Candidate Gene List which were not sequenced to a sufficient depth of coverage to make a clinical diagnosis. • You can check if genes are captured by the Agilent Agilent SureSelect v5 exome capture, and how well those genes are typically covered here. • Explanations for the headings; • Symbol: Gene symbol • Chr: Chromosome • % Captured: the minimum portion of the gene captured by the Agilent SureSelect XT Human All Exon v5 kit. This includes all transcripts for a given gene. o 100.00% = the entire gene is captured o 0.00% = none of the gene is captured • % Covered: the minimum portion of the gene that has at least 30x average coverage when sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq2000 with 100 base pair (bp) paired-end reads for eight CEPH samples.
