Mouse Eml1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Eml1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Eml1 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Eml1 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_001043335 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000058070 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 12. 22 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAG stop codon in exon 22 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000109860). Exon 2~3 will be selected as target site. Cas9 and gRNA will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for KO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Mice homozygous for a spontaneous mutation exhibit subcortical band heterotopia associated with seizures, developmental delay and behavioral deficits. Exon 2 starts from about 2.78% of the coding region. Exon 2~3 covers 12.94% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~8459 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

Belancio2 and Dixie L. Mager1* Abstract Transposable element (TE) insertions are responsible for a significant fraction of spontaneous germ line mutations reported in inbred mouse strains. This major contribution of TEs to the mutational landscape in mouse contrasts with the situation in human, where their relative contribution as germ line insertional mutagens is much lower. In this focussed review, we provide comprehensive lists of TE-induced mouse mutations, discuss the different TE types involved in these insertional mutations and elaborate on particularly interesting cases. We also discuss differences and similarities between the mutational role of TEs in mice and humans. Keywords: Endogenous retroviruses, Long terminal repeats, Long interspersed elements, Short interspersed elements, Germ line mutation, Inbred mice, Insertional mutagenesis, Transcriptional interference Background promoter and polyadenylation motifs and often a splice The mouse and human genomes harbor similar types of donor site [10, 11].

Our recent focus has been on understanding how and why the expression of particular variants can affect biological and molecular properties of cancer cells, as well as identifying the key signalling pathways triggered, as a result. In the clinical setting, this understanding led to the discovery that the type of variant influences the response of patients to ALK therapy. Here, we discuss what we know so far about the EML4-ALK variants in molecular signalling pathways and what questions remain to be answered. In the longer term, this analysis may uncover ways to specifically treat patients for a better outcome. Keywords: anaplastic lymphoma kinase; echinoderm microtubule-associated protein; non-small cell lung cancer; tyrosine kinase inhibitor 1.

European Research Initiative for ALK-related malignancies; www.erialcl.net. y These authors contributed equally to this work. z Received: 7 June 2019; Accepted: 23 July 2019; Published: 30 July 2019 Abstract: Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a tyrosine kinase involved in neuronal and gut development. Initially discovered in T cell lymphoma, ALK is frequently affected in diverse cancers by oncogenic translocations. These translocations involve different fusion partners that facilitate multimerisation and autophosphorylation of ALK, resulting in a constitutively active tyrosine kinase with oncogenic potential. ALK fusion proteins are involved in diverse cellular signalling pathways, such as Ras/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt and Janus protein tyrosine kinase (JAK)/STAT. Furthermore, ALK is implicated in epigenetic regulation, including DNA methylation and miRNA expression, and an interaction with nuclear proteins has been described. Through these mechanisms, ALK fusion proteins enable a transcriptional programme that drives the pathogenesis of a range of ALK-related malignancies. Keywords: ALK; ALCL; NPM-ALK; EML4-ALK; NSCLC; ALK-translocation proteins; epigenetics 1. Introduction Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) was first successfully cloned in 1994 when it was reported in the context of a fusion protein in cases of anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) [1].

  • Genome-Wide Gene Expression Profiling of Randall's Plaques In
    CLINICAL RESEARCH www.jasn.org Genome-Wide Gene Expression Profiling of Randall’s Plaques in Calcium Oxalate Stone Formers † † Kazumi Taguchi,* Shuzo Hamamoto,* Atsushi Okada,* Rei Unno,* Hideyuki Kamisawa,* Taku Naiki,* Ryosuke Ando,* Kentaro Mizuno,* Noriyasu Kawai,* Keiichi Tozawa,* Kenjiro Kohri,* and Takahiro Yasui* *Department of Nephro-urology, Nagoya City University Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Nagoya, Japan; and †Department of Urology, Social Medical Corporation Kojunkai Daido Hospital, Daido Clinic, Nagoya, Japan ABSTRACT Randall plaques (RPs) can contribute to the formation of idiopathic calcium oxalate (CaOx) kidney stones; however, genes related to RP formation have not been identified. We previously reported the potential therapeutic role of osteopontin (OPN) and macrophages in CaOx kidney stone formation, discovered using genome-recombined mice and genome-wide analyses. Here, to characterize the genetic patho- genesis of RPs, we used microarrays and immunohistology to compare gene expression among renal papillary RP and non-RP tissues of 23 CaOx stone formers (SFs) (age- and sex-matched) and normal papillary tissue of seven controls. Transmission electron microscopy showed OPN and collagen expression inside and around RPs, respectively. Cluster analysis revealed that the papillary gene expression of CaOx SFs differed significantly from that of controls. Disease and function analysis of gene expression revealed activation of cellular hyperpolarization, reproductive development, and molecular transport in papillary tissue from RPs and non-RP regions of CaOx SFs. Compared with non-RP tissue, RP tissue showed upregulation (˃2-fold) of LCN2, IL11, PTGS1, GPX3,andMMD and downregulation (0.5-fold) of SLC12A1 and NALCN (P,0.01). In network and toxicity analyses, these genes associated with activated mitogen- activated protein kinase, the Akt/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway, and proinflammatory cytokines that cause renal injury and oxidative stress.

  • EML1 (CNG-Modulin) Controls Light Sensitivity in Darkness and Under Continuous Illumination in Zebrafish Retinal Cone Photoreceptors
    The Journal of Neuroscience, November 6, 2013 • 33(45):17763–17776 • 17763 Cellular/Molecular EML1 (CNG-Modulin) Controls Light Sensitivity in Darkness and under Continuous Illumination in Zebrafish Retinal Cone Photoreceptors Juan I. Korenbrot,1 Milap Mehta,2 Nomingerel Tserentsoodol,2 John H. Postlethwait,3 and Tatiana I. Rebrik2 1Departments of Ophthalmology and Physiology, School of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143, 2Albert Eye Research Institute, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina 27710, and 3Department of Biology, University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon 97403 The ligand sensitivity of cGMP-gated (CNG) ion channels in cone photoreceptors is modulated by CNG-modulin, a Ca 2ϩ-binding protein. We investigated the functional role of CNG-modulin in phototransduction in vivo in morpholino-mediated gene knockdown zebrafish. Through comparative genomic analysis, we identified the orthologue gene of CNG-modulin in zebrafish, eml1, an ancient gene present in the genome of all vertebrates sequenced to date. We compare the photoresponses of wild-type cones with those of cones that do not express the EML1 protein. In the absence of EML1, dark-adapted cones are ϳ5.3-fold more light sensitive than wild-type cones. Previous qualitative studies in several nonmammalian species have shown that immediately after the onset of continuous illumination, cones are less light sensitive than in darkness, but sensitivity then recovers over the following 15–20 s. We characterize light sensitivity recovery in continuously illuminated wild-type zebrafish cones and demonstrate that sensitivity recovery does not occur in the absence of EML1.
