Essential Genes And Their Role In Autism Spectrum Disorder Abstract Essential genes (EGs) play central roles in fundamental cellular processes and are required for the survival of an organism. EGs are enriched for human disease genes and are under strong purifying selection. This intolerance to deleterious mutations, commonly observed haploinsufficiency and the importance of EGs in pre- and postnatal development suggests a possible cumulative effect of deleterious variants in EGs on complex neurodevelopmental disorders. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous, highly heritable neurodevelopmental syndrome characterized by impaired social interaction, communication and repetitive behavior. More and more genetic evidence points to a polygenic model of ASD and it is estimated that hundreds of genes contribute to ASD. The central question addressed in this dissertation is whether genes with a strong effect on survival and fitness (i.e. EGs) play a specific oler in ASD risk. I compiled a comprehensive catalog of 3,915 mammalian EGs by combining human orthologs of lethal genes in knockout mice and genes responsible for cell-based essentiality. -

The current paper reviews all genome-wide association studies conducted in the past ten years, sampling patients with AUD and co-occurring mood or anxiety disorder(s). (2) Methods: In keeping with PRISMA guidelines, we searched EMBASE, Medline/PUBMED, and PsycINFO databases (January 2010 to December 2020), including references of enrolled studies. Study selection was based on predefined criteria and data underwent a multistep revision process. (3) Results: 15 studies were included. Some of them explored dual diagnoses phenotypes directly while others employed Citation: Stoychev, K.; Dilkov, D.; correlational analysis based on polygenic risk score approach.

Genetic Signatures of High-Altitude Adaptation and Geographic
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Genetic signatures of high‑altitude adaptation and geographic distribution in Tibetan sheep Jianbin Liu1,2*, Chao Yuan1,2, Tingting Guo1,2, Fan Wang3, Yufeng Zeng1, Xuezhi Ding1, Zengkui Lu1,2, Dingkao Renqing4, Hao Zhang5, Xilan Xu6, Yaojing Yue1,2, Xiaoping Sun1,2, Chune Niu1,2, Deqing Zhuoga7* & Bohui Yang1,2* Most sheep breeding programs designed for the tropics and sub‑tropics have to take into account the impacts of environmental adaptive traits. However, the genetic mechanism regulating the multiple biological processes driving adaptive responses remains unclear. In this study, we applied a selective sweep analysis by combing 1% top values of Fst and ZHp on both altitude and geographic subpopulations (APS) in 636 indigenous Tibetan sheep breeds. Results show that 37 genes were identifed within overlapped genomic regions regarding Fst signifcantly associated with APS. Out of the 37 genes, we found that 8, 3 and 6 genes at chromosomes (chr.) 13, 23 and 27, respectively, were identifed in the genomic regions with 1% top values of ZHp. We further analyzed the INDEL variation of 6 genes at chr.27 (X chromosome) in APS together with corresponding orthologs of 6 genes in Capra, Pantholops, and Bos Taurus. We found that an INDEL was located within 5′UTR region of HAG1 gene. This INDEL of HAG1 was strongly associated with the variation of APS, which was further confrmed by qPCR. Sheep breeds carrying “C‑INDEL” of HAG1 have signifcantly greater body weight, shear amount, corpuscular hemoglobin and globulin levels, but lower body height, than those carrying “CA‑INDEL” of HAG1. -

Crystal Structure of a Variant PAM2 Motif of LARP4B Bound to the MLLE Domain of PABPC1
biomolecules Article Crystal Structure of a Variant PAM2 Motif of LARP4B Bound to the MLLE Domain of PABPC1 Clemens Grimm *, Jann-Patrick Pelz, Cornelius Schneider, Katrin Schäffler and Utz Fischer Department of Biochemistry, Theodor Boveri Institute, Biocenter of the University of Würzburg, 97070 Würzburg, Germany; [email protected] (J.-P.P.); [email protected] (C.S.); katrin.schaeffl[email protected] (K.S.); utz.fi[email protected] (U.F.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 3 April 2020; Accepted: 4 June 2020; Published: 6 June 2020 Abstract: Eukaryotic cells determine the protein output of their genetic program by regulating mRNA transcription, localization, translation and turnover rates. This regulation is accomplished by an ensemble of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that bind to any given mRNA, thus forming mRNPs. Poly(A) binding proteins (PABPs) are prominent members of virtually all mRNPs that possess poly(A) tails. They serve as multifunctional scaffolds, allowing the recruitment of diverse factors containing a poly(A)-interacting motif (PAM) into mRNPs. We present the crystal structure of the variant PAM motif (termed PAM2w) in the N-terminal part of the positive translation factor LARP4B, which binds to the MLLE domain of the poly(A) binding protein C1 cytoplasmic 1 (PABPC1). The structural analysis, along with mutational studies in vitro and in vivo, uncovered a new mode of interaction between PAM2 motifs and MLLE domains. Keywords: PAM2w; PAM2; PABC1; MLLE domain; PABP; Poly(A) binding protein 1. Introduction In higher eukaryotes, posttranscriptional mechanisms contribute significantly to gene expression. The mRNA, which is translated into proteins by the ribosomes, has first to undergo several maturation steps, from the primary pre-mRNA transcript to the mature mRNA. -
Novelty Indicator for Enhanced Prioritization of Predicted Gene Ontology Annotations
IEEE/ACM TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY AND BIOINFORMATICS, VOL. X, NO. X, MONTHXXX 20XX 1 Novelty Indicator for Enhanced Prioritization of Predicted Gene Ontology Annotations Davide Chicco, Fernando Palluzzi, and Marco Masseroli Abstract—Biomolecular controlled annotations have become pivotal in computational biology, because they allow scientists to analyze large amounts of biological data to better understand their test results, and to infer new knowledge. Yet, biomolecular annotation databases are incomplete by definition, like our knowledge of biology, and may contain errors and inconsistent information. In this context, machine-learning algorithms able to predict and prioritize new biomolecular annotations are both effective and efficient, especially if compared with the time-consuming trials of biological validation. To limit the possibility that these techniques predict obvious and trivial high-level features, and to help prioritizing their results, we introduce here a new element that can improve the accuracy and relevance of the results of an annotation prediction and prioritization pipeline. We propose a novelty indicator able to state the level of ”newness” (or ”originality”) of the annotations predicted for a specific gene to Gene Ontology terms, and to help prioritizing the most novel and interesting annotations predicted. We performed a thorough biological functional analysis of the prioritized annotations predicted with high accuracy by using this indicator and our previously proposed prediction algorithms.
