Sadaf Farooqi3 Obesity is a genetically heterogeneous disorder. Using targeted and whole-exome sequencing, we studied 32 human and 87 rodent obesity genes in 2,548 severely obese children and 1,117 controls. We identified 52 variants contributing to obesity in 2% of cases including multiple novel variants in GNAS, which were sometimes found with accelerated growth rather than short stature as described previously. Nominally significant associations were found for rare functional variants inBBS1 , BBS9, GNAS, MKKS, CLOCK and ANGPTL6. The p.S284X variant in ANGPTL6 drives the association signal (rs201622589, MAF~0.1%, odds ratio = 10.13, p-value = 0.042) and results in complete loss of secretion in cells. Further analysis including additional case-control studies and population controls (N = 260,642) did not support association of this variant with obesity (odds ratio = 2.34, p-value = 2.59 × 10−3), highlighting the challenges of testing rare variant associations and the need for very large sample sizes.

  • Unraveling the Genetics of Joubert and Meckel-Gruber Syndromes

Johnson∗ Department of Ophthalmology and Neuroscience, University of Leeds, Leeds, UK Received 27 May 2014 Revised 11 July 2014 Accepted 14 July 2014 Abstract. Joubert syndrome (JBTS) and Meckel-Gruber syndrome (MKS) are recessive neurodevelopmental conditions caused by mutations in proteins that are structural or functional components of the primary cilium. In this review, we provide an overview of their clinical diagnosis, management and molecular genetics. Both have variable phenotypes, extreme genetic heterogeneity, and display allelism both with each other and other ciliopathies. Recent advances in genetic technology have significantly improved diagnosis and clinical management of ciliopathy patients, with the delineation of some general genotype-phenotype correlations. We highlight those that are most relevant for clinical practice, including the correlation between TMEM67 mutations and the JBTS variant phenotype of COACH syndrome. The subcellular localization of the known MKS and JBTS proteins is now well-described, and we discuss some of the contemporary ideas about ciliopathy disease pathogenesis. Most JBTS and MKS proteins localize to a discrete ciliary compartment called the transition zone, and act as structural components of the so-called “ciliary gate” to regulate the ciliary trafficking of cargo proteins or lipids. Cargo proteins include enzymes and transmembrane proteins that mediate intracellular signaling. The disruption of transition zone function may contribute to the ciliopathy phenotype by altering the composition of the ciliary membrane or axoneme, with impacts on essential developmental signaling including the Wnt and Shh pathways as well as the regulation of secondary messengers such as inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP).

Although TRIM32 is involved in protein ubiquitination, its substrates and the molecular consequences of disease-causing mutations are poorly understood. In this paper, we show that Downloaded from TRIM32 is a widely expressed ubiquitin ligase that is localized to the Z-line in skeletal muscle. Using the yeast two-hybrid system, we found that TRIM32 binds and ubiquitinates dysbindin, a protein implicated in the genetic aetiology of schizophrenia, augmenting its degradation. Small-interfering RNA-mediated knock-down of TRIM32 in myoblasts resulted in elevated levels of dysbindin. Importantly, the LGMD2H/ STM-associated TRIM32 mutations, D487N and R394H impair ubiquitin ligase activity towards dysbindin http://hmg.oxfordjournals.org/ and were mislocalized in heterologous cells. These mutants were able to self-associate and also co-immuno- precipitated with wild-type TRIM32 in transfected cells. Furthermore, the D487N mutant could bind to both dysbindin and its E2 enzyme but was defective in monoubiquitination.

Silva1,5, Damon T. Jacobs1,5, Bailey A. Allard1,5, Timothy A. Fields2,5, Madhulika Sharma4,5, Darren P. Wallace3,4,5 & Pamela V. Tran 1,5 Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is caused by mutation of PKD1 or PKD2, which encode polycystin 1 and 2, respectively. The polycystins localize to primary cilia and the functional loss of the polycystin complex leads to the formation and progressive growth of fuid-flled cysts in the kidney. The pathogenesis of ADPKD is complex and molecular mechanisms connecting ciliary dysfunction to renal cystogenesis are unclear. Primary cilia mediate Hedgehog signaling, which modulates cell proliferation and diferentiation in a tissue-dependent manner. Previously, we showed that Hedgehog signaling was increased in cystic kidneys of several PKD mouse models and that Hedgehog inhibition prevented cyst formation in embryonic PKD mouse kidneys treated with cAMP. Here, we show that in human ADPKD tissue, Hedgehog target and activator, Glioma 1, was elevated and localized to cyst-lining epithelial cells and to interstitial cells, suggesting increased autocrine and paracrine Hedgehog signaling in ADPKD, respectively. Further, Hedgehog inhibitors reduced basal and cAMP-induced proliferation of ADPKD cells and cyst formation in vitro. These data suggest that Hedgehog signaling is increased in human ADPKD and that suppression of Hedgehog signaling can counter cellular processes that promote cyst growth in vitro. Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is among the most commonly inherited, life-threatening diseases, afecting 1:500 adults worldwide.

ABSTRACT Signaling from the primary cilium regulates kidney tubule development and cyst formation. However, the mechanism controlling targeting of ciliary components necessary for cilium morphogenesis and signaling is largely unknown. Here, we studied the function of class II phosphoinositide 3-kinase-C2a (PI3K-C2a)inrenal tubule-derived inner medullary collecting duct 3 cells and show that PI3K-C2a resides at the recycling endo- some compartment in proximity to the primary cilium base. In this subcellular location, PI3K-C2a controlled the activation of Rab8, a key mediator of cargo protein targeting to the primary cilium.
