  • GCSH Rabbit Pab
    Leader in Biomolecular Solutions for Life Science GCSH Rabbit pAb Catalog No.: A3880 Basic Information Background Catalog No. Degradation of glycine is brought about by the glycine cleavage system, which is A3880 composed of four mitochondrial protein components: P protein (a pyridoxal phosphate- dependent glycine decarboxylase), H protein (a lipoic acid-containing protein), T protein Observed MW (a tetrahydrofolate-requiring enzyme), and L protein (a lipoamide dehydrogenase). The 28kDa protein encoded by this gene is the H protein, which transfers the methylamine group of glycine from the P protein to the T protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonketotic Calculated MW hyperglycinemia (NKH). Two transcript variants, one protein-coding and the other 18kDa probably not protein-coding,have been found for this gene. Also, several transcribed and non-transcribed pseudogenes of this gene exist throughout the genome.

  • AMT Gene Aminomethyltransferase
    AMT gene aminomethyltransferase Normal Function The AMT gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called aminomethyltransferase. This protein is one of four enzymes that work together in a group called the glycine cleavage system. Within cells, this system is active in specialized energy-producing centers called mitochondria. As its name suggests, the glycine cleavage system breaks down a molecule called glycine by cutting (cleaving) it into smaller pieces. Glycine is an amino acid, which is a building block of proteins. This molecule also acts as a neurotransmitter, which is a chemical messenger that transmits signals in the brain. The breakdown of excess glycine when it is no longer needed is necessary for the normal development and function of nerve cells in the brain. The breakdown of glycine by the glycine cleavage system produces a molecule called a methyl group. This molecule is added to and used by a vitamin called folate. Folate is required for many functions in the cell and is important for brain development. Health Conditions Related to Genetic Changes Nonketotic hyperglycinemia Mutations in the AMT gene account for about 20 percent of all cases of nonketotic hyperglycinemia. This condition is characterized by abnormally high levels of glycine in the body (hyperglycinemia). Affected individuals have serious neurological problems. The signs and symptoms of the condition vary in severity and can include severe breathing difficulties shortly after birth as well as weak muscle tone (hypotonia), seizures, and delayed development of milestones. More than 70 mutations have been identified in affected individuals. Most of these genetic changes alter single amino acids in aminomethyltransferase.

  • Glycine Encephalopathy, AMT-Related
    Glycine encephalopathy What is glycine encephalopathy? Glycine encephalopathy is an inherited metabolic disease that, in its typical form, is characterized by seizures in infancy and other progressive nervous system problems. Individuals with glycine encephalopathy have an abnormally low level of an enzyme that helps to breaks down the amino acid glycine. Symptoms are due to a toxic build-up of glycine, especially in the brain.1 Glycine encephalopathy is also known as non-ketotic hyperglycinemia.2 What are the symptoms of glycine encephalopathy and what treatment is available? Glycine encephalopathy is a disease that varies in severity and age at presentation. The majority of individuals with glycine encephalopathy show symptoms within the first few days of life, and a subset of individuals with early onset may also have birth defects (such as cleft lip/palate or club feet). Some individuals may show less severe symptoms later in infancy or childhood.1,2 Symptoms may include:1,2 • Seizures that may not respond to treatment • Lethargy • Hypotonia (low muscle tone) • Difficulty breathing • Hiccupping • Feeding difficulties • Intellectual disability and possible behavior problems • Coma and possible death There is no cure for glycine encephalopathy. Treatment includes supportive care for symptoms including medicine to help reduce levels of glycine in the blood and control seizures. A ketogenic diet, feeding and respiratory support, and physical therapy may improve symptoms in some individuals.2 Without intervention, individuals with severe glycine encephalopathy often do not survive past infancy.1 Glycine encephalopathy is included on newborn screening profiles in some states in the US.3 How is glycine encephalopathy inherited? Glycine encephalopathy is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in one of three different genes.

  • A Novel Intronic Homozygous Mutation in the AMT Gene of a Patient with Nonketotic Hyperglycinemia and Hyperammonemia
    Metabolic Brain Disease (2019) 34:373–376 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11011-018-0317-0 SHORT COMMUNICATION A novel intronic homozygous mutation in the AMT gene of a patient with nonketotic hyperglycinemia and hyperammonemia Sarah Silverstein1 & Aravindhan Veerapandiyan2 & Caroline Hayes-Rosen1 & Xue Ming1 & Jeffrey Kornitzer1 Received: 26 June 2018 /Accepted: 12 September 2018 /Published online: 22 October 2018 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Nonketotic Hyperglycinemia is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by defects in the mitochondrial glycine cleavage system. Most patients present soon after birth with seizures and hypotonia, and infants that survive the newborn period often have profound intellectual disability and intractable seizures. Here we present a case report of a 4-year-old girl with NKH as well as hyperammonemia, an uncommon finding in NKH. Genetic analysis found a previously unreported homozygous mutation (c.878–1 G > A) in the AMT gene. Maximum Entropy Principle modeling predicted that this mutation most likely breaks the splice site at the border of intron 7 and exon 8 of the AMT gene. Treatment with L-Arginine significantly reduced both the proband’s glycine and ammonia levels, in turn aiding in control of seizures and mental status. This is the first time the use of L- Arginine is reported to successfully treat elevated glycine levels. Keywords Glycine encephalopathy . Genetics . Hyperammonemia . L-arginine .

  • Downregulation of SNRPG Induces Cell Cycle Arrest and Sensitizes Human Glioblastoma Cells to Temozolomide by Targeting Myc Through a P53-Dependent Signaling Pathway
    Cancer Biol Med 2020. doi: 10.20892/j.issn.2095-3941.2019.0164 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Downregulation of SNRPG induces cell cycle arrest and sensitizes human glioblastoma cells to temozolomide by targeting Myc through a p53-dependent signaling pathway Yulong Lan1,2*, Jiacheng Lou2*, Jiliang Hu1, Zhikuan Yu1, Wen Lyu1, Bo Zhang1,2 1Department of Neurosurgery, Shenzhen People’s Hospital, Second Clinical Medical College of Jinan University, The First Affiliated Hospital of Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen 518020, China;2 Department of Neurosurgery, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University, Dalian 116023, China ABSTRACT Objective: Temozolomide (TMZ) is commonly used for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) chemotherapy. However, drug resistance limits its therapeutic effect in GBM treatment. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have vital roles in posttranscriptional events. While disturbance of RBP-RNA network activity is potentially associated with cancer development, the precise mechanisms are not fully known. The SNRPG gene, encoding small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide G, was recently found to be related to cancer incidence, but its exact function has yet to be elucidated. Methods: SNRPG knockdown was achieved via short hairpin RNAs. Gene expression profiling and Western blot analyses were used to identify potential glioma cell growth signaling pathways affected by SNRPG. Xenograft tumors were examined to determine the carcinogenic effects of SNRPG on glioma tissues. Results: The SNRPG-mediated inhibitory effect on glioma cells might be due to the targeted prevention of Myc and p53. In addition, the effects of SNRPG loss on p53 levels and cell cycle progression were found to be Myc-dependent. Furthermore, SNRPG was increased in TMZ-resistant GBM cells, and downregulation of SNRPG potentially sensitized resistant cells to TMZ, suggesting that SNRPG deficiency decreases the chemoresistance of GBM cells to TMZ via the p53 signaling pathway.

  • Mouse Gcsh Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
    https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Gcsh Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Gcsh conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Gcsh gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_026572 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000034424 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 8. 5 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TGA stop codon in exon 5 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000040484). Exon 2 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Gcsh gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP24-254F5 as template. Cas9, gRNA and targeting vector will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for cKO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Exon 2 starts from about 27.45% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 2 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 1 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 4084 bp, and the size of intron 2 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 1747 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~580 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.
