Leader in Biomolecular Solutions for Life Science GZMH Rabbit pAb Catalog No.: A6154 Basic Information Background Catalog No. This gene encodes a member of the peptidase S1 family of serine proteases. Alternative A6154 splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate a chymotrypsin-like Observed MW protease. This protein is reported to be constitutively expressed in the NK (natural killer) 37kDa cells of the immune system and may play a role in the cytotoxic arm of the innate immune response by inducing target cell death and by directly cleaving substrates in Calculated MW pathogen-infected cells. This gene is present in a gene cluster with another member of 12kDa/17kDa/27kDa the granzyme subfamily on chromosome 14.

Of interest, the ring formation was associated with silencing of the amisyn gene present in two copies on the ring chromosome and located at 300 kb from the breakpoint. This observation lends further support for a locus for autism on proximal chromosome 14. Moreover, this case suggests that position effects need to be taken into account, when analyzing genotype–phenotype correlations based on chromosomal imbalances.

Single-Cell Profiling Reveals the Trajectories of Natural Killer Cell
www.nature.com/cmi Cellular & Molecular Immunology ARTICLE OPEN Single-cell profiling reveals the trajectories of natural killer cell differentiation in bone marrow and a stress signature induced by acute myeloid leukemia Adeline Crinier1, Pierre-Yves Dumas2,3,4, Bertrand Escalière1, Christelle Piperoglou5, Laurine Gil1, Arnaud Villacreces3,4, Frédéric Vély1,5, Zoran Ivanovic4,6, Pierre Milpied1, Émilie Narni-Mancinelli 1 and Éric Vivier 1,5,7 Natural killer (NK) cells are innate cytotoxic lymphoid cells (ILCs) involved in the killing of infected and tumor cells. Among human and mouse NK cells from the spleen and blood, we previously identified by single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) two similar major subsets, NK1 and NK2. Using the same technology, we report here the identification, by single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq), of three NK cell subpopulations in human bone marrow. Pseudotime analysis identified a subset of resident CD56bright NK cells, NK0 cells, as the precursor of both circulating CD56dim NK1-like NK cells and CD56bright NK2-like NK cells in human bone marrow and spleen under physiological conditions. Transcriptomic profiles of bone marrow NK cells from patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) exhibited stress-induced repression of NK cell effector functions, highlighting the profound impact of this disease on NK cell heterogeneity. Bone marrow NK cells from AML patients exhibited reduced levels of CD160, but the CD160high group had a significantly higher survival rate. 1234567890();,: Keywords: NK cells; scRNASeq; AML Cellular & Molecular Immunology (2021) 18:1290–1304; https://doi.org/10.1038/s41423-020-00574-8 INTRODUCTION T lymphocytes and a subset of ILC3 cells (NCR+ ILC3 cells) in Natural killer (NK) cells are large granular lymphocytes in the ILC mucosa.5–7 family.

Network Mining Approach to Cancer Biomarker Discovery
NETWORK MINING APPROACH TO CANCER BIOMARKER DISCOVERY THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Praneeth Uppalapati, B.E. Graduate Program in Computer Science and Engineering The Ohio State University 2010 Thesis Committee: Dr. Kun Huang, Advisor Dr. Raghu Machiraju Copyright by Praneeth Uppalapati 2010 ABSTRACT With the rapid development of high throughput gene expression profiling technology, molecule profiling has become a powerful tool to characterize disease subtypes and discover gene signatures. Most existing gene signature discovery methods apply statistical methods to select genes whose expression values can differentiate different subject groups. However, a drawback of these approaches is that the selected genes are not functionally related and hence cannot reveal biological mechanism behind the difference in the patient groups. Gene co-expression network analysis can be used to mine functionally related sets of genes that can be marked as potential biomarkers through survival analysis. We present an efficient heuristic algorithm EigenCut that exploits the properties of gene co- expression networks to mine functionally related and dense modules of genes. We apply this method to brain tumor (Glioblastoma Multiforme) study to obtain functionally related clusters. If functional groups of genes with predictive power on patient prognosis can be identified, insights on the mechanisms related to metastasis in GBM can be obtained and better therapeutical plan can be developed. We predicted potential biomarkers by dividing the patients into two groups based on their expression profiles over the genes in the clusters and comparing their survival outcome through survival analysis.
