While ovulation rate is the major determinant of 12 litter size in sheep, interactions among the conceptus, corpus luteum and endometrium are essential for 13 pregnancy success. Here, we performed a comparative transcriptome study by sequencing total mRNA from 14 corpus luteum (CL) collected during the preimplantation stage of pregnancy in Finnsheep, Texel and F1 15 crosses, and mapping the RNA-Seq reads to the latest Rambouillet reference genome. A total of 21,287 genes 16 were expressed in our dataset. Highly expressed autosomal genes in the CL were associated with biological 17 processes such as progesterone formation (STAR, CYP11A1, and HSD3B1) and embryo implantation (eg. -

Dysregulation of Post-Transcriptional Modification by Copy Number
Yoshikawa et al. Translational Psychiatry (2021) 11:331 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41398-021-01460-1 Translational Psychiatry ARTICLE Open Access Dysregulation of post-transcriptional modification by copy number variable microRNAs in schizophrenia with enhanced glycation stress Akane Yoshikawa1,2,ItaruKushima 3,4, Mitsuhiro Miyashita 1,5,6,KazuyaToriumi 1, Kazuhiro Suzuki 1,5, Yasue Horiuchi 1, Hideya Kawaji 7, Shunya Takizawa8,NorioOzaki 3, Masanari Itokawa1 and Makoto Arai 1 Abstract Previously, we identified a subpopulation of schizophrenia (SCZ) showing increased levels of plasma pentosidine, a marker of glycation and oxidative stress. However, its causative genetic factors remain largely unknown. Recently, it has been suggested that dysregulated posttranslational modification by copy number variable microRNAs (CNV-miRNAs) may contribute to the etiology of SCZ. Here, an integrative genome-wide CNV-miRNA analysis was performed to investigate the etiology of SCZ with accumulated plasma pentosidine (PEN-SCZ). The number of CNV-miRNAs and the gene ontology (GO) in the context of miRNAs within CNVs were compared between PEN-SCZ and non-PEN-SCZ groups. Gene set enrichment analysis of miRNA target genes was further performed to evaluate the pathways affected in PEN-SCZ. We show that miRNAs were significantly enriched within CNVs in the PEN-SCZ versus non-PEN-SCZ groups (p = 0.032). Of note, as per GO analysis, the dysregulated neurodevelopmental events in the two groups may have different origins. Additionally, gene set enrichment analysis of miRNA target genes revealed that miRNAs involved in glycation/oxidative stress and synaptic neurotransmission, especially glutamate/GABA receptor signaling, fi 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; were possibly affected in PEN-SCZ. -
Chromosome 18 Gene Dosage Map 2.0
Human Genetics (2018) 137:961–970 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00439-018-1960-6 ORIGINAL INVESTIGATION Chromosome 18 gene dosage map 2.0 Jannine D. Cody1,2 · Patricia Heard1 · David Rupert1 · Minire Hasi‑Zogaj1 · Annice Hill1 · Courtney Sebold1 · Daniel E. Hale1,3 Received: 9 August 2018 / Accepted: 14 November 2018 / Published online: 17 November 2018 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract In 2009, we described the first generation of the chromosome 18 gene dosage maps. This tool included the annotation of each gene as well as each phenotype associated region. The goal of these annotated genetic maps is to provide clinicians with a tool to appreciate the potential clinical impact of a chromosome 18 deletion or duplication. These maps are continually updated with the most recent and relevant data regarding chromosome 18. Over the course of the past decade, there have also been advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underpinning genetic disease. Therefore, we have updated the maps to more accurately reflect this knowledge. Our Gene Dosage Map 2.0 has expanded from the gene and phenotype maps to also include a pair of maps specific to hemizygosity and suprazygosity. Moreover, we have revamped our classification from mechanistic definitions (e.g., haplosufficient, haploinsufficient) to clinically oriented classifications (e.g., risk factor, conditional, low penetrance, causal). This creates a map with gradient of classifications that more accurately represents the spectrum between the two poles of pathogenic and benign. While the data included in this manuscript are specific to chro- mosome 18, they may serve as a clinically relevant model that can be applied to the rest of the genome. -

Abstract Phosphorylation of specific substrates by protein kinases is a key control mechanism for vital cell-fate decisions and other cellular pro- cesses. However, discovering specific kinase-substrate relationships is time-consuming and often rather serendipitous. -

The Role and Robustness of the Gini Coefficient As an Unbiased Tool For
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The role and robustness of the Gini coefcient as an unbiased tool for the selection of Gini genes for normalising expression profling data Marina Wright Muelas 1*, Farah Mughal1, Steve O’Hagan2,3, Philip J. Day3,4* & Douglas B. Kell 1,5* We recently introduced the Gini coefcient (GC) for assessing the expression variation of a particular gene in a dataset, as a means of selecting improved reference genes over the cohort (‘housekeeping genes’) typically used for normalisation in expression profling studies. Those genes (transcripts) that we determined to be useable as reference genes difered greatly from previous suggestions based on hypothesis-driven approaches. A limitation of this initial study is that a single (albeit large) dataset was employed for both tissues and cell lines. We here extend this analysis to encompass seven other large datasets. Although their absolute values difer a little, the Gini values and median expression levels of the various genes are well correlated with each other between the various cell line datasets, implying that our original choice of the more ubiquitously expressed low-Gini-coefcient genes was indeed sound. In tissues, the Gini values and median expression levels of genes showed a greater variation, with the GC of genes changing with the number and types of tissues in the data sets. In all data sets, regardless of whether this was derived from tissues or cell lines, we also show that the GC is a robust measure of gene expression stability. Using the GC as a measure of expression stability we illustrate its utility to fnd tissue- and cell line-optimised housekeeping genes without any prior bias, that again include only a small number of previously reported housekeeping genes. -
