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. -

PABPC1 is the 18 most abundant of several PABP isoforms that exist in mammals. Here, we used the 19 CRISPR/Cas genome editing system to shift the isoform composition in HEK293 cells. 20 Disruption of PABPC1 elevated PABPC4 levels. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the 21 shift in the dominant PABP isoform was correlated with changes in key transcriptional 22 regulators. This study provides insight into understanding the role of PABP isoforms in 23 development and differentiation. 24 Keywords 25 PABPC1, PABPC4, c-Myc 26 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.02.07.430165; this version posted February 15, 2021.

Western blot testing of 1) rat brain, 2) mouse brain, 3) human HeLa and 4) human MCF7 lysate with RAB9 antibody. Expected/observed molecular weight: ~23 kDa. Description Ras-related protein Rab-9A, also called RAB9, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RAB9A gene. This gene is mapped to Xp22.2. RAB9 has been localized to components of the endocytic/exocytic pathway and has been implicated in recycling of membrane receptors. It has been found that downregulation of RAB9A gene expression in HeLa cells induced severe cell vacuolation. RAB9A GTPase is directly bound by TIP47 in its active, GTP-bound conformation. Moreover, RAB9A increases the affinity of TIP47 for its cargo. What’s more, this gene may involved in the transport of proteins between the endosomes and the trans Golgi network. RAB9A has been shown to interact with RABEPK and TIP47. Application Notes Optimal dilution of the RAB9 antibody should be determined by the researcher. Immunogen Amino acids KDATNVAAAFEEAVRRVLATEDRSDHLIQTDTVNLHRK of human RAB9A were used as the immunogen for the RAB9 antibody. Storage After reconstitution, the RAB9 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. -

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 -
Mapping of Craniofacial Traits in Outbred Mice Identifies Major Developmental Genes Involved in Shape Determination
Mapping of craniofacial traits in outbred mice identifies major developmental genes involved in shape determination Luisa F Pallares1, Peter Carbonetto2,3, Shyam Gopalakrishnan2,4, Clarissa C Parker2,5, Cheryl L Ackert-Bicknell6, Abraham A Palmer2,7, Diethard Tautz1 # 1Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology, Plön, Germany 2University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, USA 3AncestryDNA, San Francisco, California, USA 4Museum of Natural History, Copenhagen University, Copenhagen, Denmark 5Middlebury College, Department of Psychology and Program in Neuroscience, Middlebury VT, USA 6Center for Musculoskeletal Research, University of Rochester, Rochester, NY USA 7University of California San Diego, La Jolla, CA, USA # corresponding author: [email protected] short title: craniofacial shape mapping Abstract The vertebrate cranium is a prime example of the high evolvability of complex traits. While evidence of genes and developmental pathways underlying craniofacial shape determination 1 is accumulating, we are still far from understanding how such variation at the genetic level is translated into craniofacial shape variation. Here we used 3D geometric morphometrics to map genes involved in shape determination in a population of outbred mice (Carworth Farms White, or CFW). We defined shape traits via principal component analysis of 3D skull and mandible measurements. We mapped genetic loci associated with shape traits at ~80,000 candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms in ~700 male mice. We found that craniofacial shape and size are highly heritable, polygenic traits. Despite the polygenic nature of the traits, we identified 17 loci that explain variation in skull shape, and 8 loci associated with variation in mandible shape. Together, the associated variants account for 11.4% of skull and 4.4% of mandible shape variation, however, the total additive genetic variance associated with phenotypic variation was estimated in ~45%. -
Understanding and Improving the Identification of Somatic Variants
Understanding and Improving the Identification of Somatic Variants Vinaya Vijayan Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Genetics, Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Chair: Liqing Zhang Christopher Franck Lenwood S. Heath Xiaowei Wu August 12th, 2016 Blacksburg, VA, USA Keywords: Somatic variants, Somatic variant callers, Somatic point mutations, Short tandem repeat variation, Lung squamous cell carcinoma Understanding and Improving the Identification of Somatic Variants Vinaya Vijayan ABSTRACT It is important to understand the entire spectrum of somatic variants to gain more insight into mutations that occur in different cancers for development of better diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic tools. This thesis outlines our work in understanding somatic variant calling, improving the identification of somatic variants from whole genome and whole exome platforms and identification of biomarkers for lung cancer. Integrating somatic variants from whole genome and whole exome platforms poses a challenge as variants identified in the exonic regions of the whole genome platform may not be identified on the whole exome platform and vice-versa. Taking a simple union or intersection of the somatic variants from both platforms would lead to inclusion of many false positives (through union) and exclusion of many true variants (through intersection). We develop the first framework to improve the identification of somatic variants on whole genome and exome platforms using a machine learning approach by combining the results from two popular somatic variant callers. Testing on simulated and real data sets shows that our framework identifies variants more accurately than using only one somatic variant caller or using variants from only one platform. -

Supplementary Data
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION A study restricted to chemokine receptors as well as a genome-wide transcript analysis uncovered CXCR4 as preferentially expressed in Ewing's sarcoma (Ewing's sarcoma) cells of metastatic origin (Figure 4). Transcriptome analyses showed that in addition to CXCR4, genes known to support cell motility and invasion topped the list of genes preferentially expressed in metastasis-derived cells (Figure 4D). These included kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (KMO), galectin-1 (LGALS1), gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP), procollagen C-endopeptidase enhancer (PCOLCE), and ephrin receptor B (EPHB3). KMO, a key enzyme of tryptophan catabolism, has not been linked to metastasis. Tryptophan and its catabolites, however, are involved in immune evasion by tumors, a process that can assist in tumor progression and metastasis (1). LGALS1, GRP, PCOLCE and EPHB3 have been linked to tumor progression and metastasis of several cancers (2-4). Top genes preferentially expressed in L-EDCL included genes that suppress cell motility and/or potentiate cell adhesion such as plakophilin 1 (PKP1), neuropeptide Y (NPY), or the metastasis suppressor TXNIP (5-7) (Figure 4D). Overall, L-EDCL were enriched in gene sets geared at optimizing nutrient transport and usage (Figure 4D; Supplementary Table 3), a state that may support the early stages of tumor growth. Once tumor growth outpaces nutrient and oxygen supplies, gene expression programs are usually switched to hypoxic response and neoangiogenesis, which ultimately lead to tumor egress and metastasis. Accordingly, gene sets involved in extracellular matrix remodeling, MAPK signaling, and response to hypoxia were up-regulated in M-EDCL (Figure 4D; Supplementary Table 4), consistent with their association to metastasis in other cancers (8, 9). -

Coexpression Networks Based on Natural Variation in Human Gene Expression at Baseline and Under Stress Abstract Genes interact in networks to orchestrate cellular processes. Here, we used coexpression networks based on natural variation in gene expression to study the functions and interactions of human genes. We asked how these networks change in response to stress. First, we studied human coexpression networks at baseline. We constructed networks by identifying correlations in expression levels of 8.9 million gene pairs in immortalized B cells from 295 individuals comprising three independent samples. The resulting networks allowed us to infer interactions between biological processes. We used the network to predict the functions of poorly-characterized human genes, and provided some experimental support. Examining genes implicated in disease, we found that IFIH1, a diabetes susceptibility gene, interacts with YES1, which affects glucose transport. Genes predisposing to the same diseases are clustered non-randomly in the network, suggesting that the network may be used to identify candidate genes that influence disease susceptibility.
