Microdeletions in 16P11.2 and 13Q31.3 Associated with Developmental Delay and Generalized Overgrowth
Microdeletions in 16p11.2 and 13q31.3 associated with developmental delay and generalized overgrowth A.M. George1, J. Taylor2 and D.R.

Res. 11 (3): 3133-3137 (2012) Received November 28, 2011 Accepted July 18, 2012 Published September 3, 2012 DOI http://dx.doi.org/10.4238/2012.September.3.1 ABSTRACT. Chromosome microarray analysis of patients with developmental delay has provided evidence of small deletions or duplications associated with this clinical phenotype. In this context, a 7.1- to 8.7-Mb interstitial deletion of chromosome 16 is well documented, but within this interval a rare 200-kb deletion has recently been defined that appears to be associated with obesity, or developmental delay together with overgrowth. We report a patient carrying this rare deletion, who falls into the latter clinical category, but who also carries a second very rare deletion in 13q31.3. It remains unclear if this maternally inherited deletion acts as a second copy number variation leading to pathogenic variation, or is non-causal and the true modifiers are yet to be determined.

Autism Multiplex Family with 16P11.2P12.2 Microduplication Syndrome in Monozygotic Twins and Distal 16P11.2 Deletion in Their Brother
European Journal of Human Genetics (2012) 20, 540–546 & 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1018-4813/12 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE Autism multiplex family with 16p11.2p12.2 microduplication syndrome in monozygotic twins and distal 16p11.2 deletion in their brother Anne-Claude Tabet1,2,3,4, Marion Pilorge2,3,4, Richard Delorme5,6,Fre´de´rique Amsellem5,6, Jean-Marc Pinard7, Marion Leboyer6,8,9, Alain Verloes10, Brigitte Benzacken1,11,12 and Catalina Betancur*,2,3,4 The pericentromeric region of chromosome 16p is rich in segmental duplications that predispose to rearrangements through non-allelic homologous recombination. Several recurrent copy number variations have been described recently in chromosome 16p. 16p11.2 rearrangements (29.5–30.1 Mb) are associated with autism, intellectual disability (ID) and other neurodevelopmental disorders. Another recognizable but less common microdeletion syndrome in 16p11.2p12.2 (21.4 to 28.5–30.1 Mb) has been described in six individuals with ID, whereas apparently reciprocal duplications, studied by standard cytogenetic and fluorescence in situ hybridization techniques, have been reported in three patients with autism spectrum disorders. Here, we report a multiplex family with three boys affected with autism, including two monozygotic twins carrying a de novo 16p11.2p12.2 duplication of 8.95 Mb (21.28–30.23 Mb) characterized by single-nucleotide polymorphism array, encompassing both the 16p11.2 and 16p11.2p12.2 regions. The twins exhibited autism, severe ID, and dysmorphic features, including a triangular face, deep-set eyes, large and prominent nasal bridge, and tall, slender build. The eldest brother presented with autism, mild ID, early-onset obesity and normal craniofacial features, and carried a smaller, overlapping 16p11.2 microdeletion of 847 kb (28.40–29.25 Mb), inherited from his apparently healthy father. -
DNA Topoisomerases and Cancer Topoisomerases and TOP Genes in Humans Humans Vs
DNA Topoisomerases Review DNA Topoisomerases And Cancer Topoisomerases and TOP Genes in Humans Humans vs. Escherichia Coli Topoisomerase differences Comparisons Topoisomerase and genomes Top 1 Top1 and Top2 differences Relaxation of DNA Top1 DNA supercoiling DNA supercoiling In the context of chromatin, where the rotation of DNA is constrained, DNA supercoiling (over- and under-twisting and writhe) is readily generated. TOP1 and TOP1mt remove supercoiling by DNA untwisting, acting as “swivelases”, whereas TOP2a and TOP2b remove writhe, acting as “writhases” at DNA crossovers (see TOP2 section). Here are some basic facts concerning DNA supercoiling that are relevant to topoisomerase activity: • Positive supercoiling (Sc+) tightens the DNA helix whereas negative supercoiling (Sc-) facilitates the opening of the duplex and the generation of single-stranded segments. • Nucleosome formation and disassembly absorbs and releases Sc-, respectively. • Polymerases generate Sc+ ahead and Sc- behind their tracks. • Excess of Sc+ arrests DNA tracking enzymes (helicases and polymerases), suppresses transcription elongation and initiation, and destabilizes nucleosomes. • Sc- facilitates DNA melting during the initiation of replication and transcription, D-loop formation and homologous recombination and nucleosome formation. • Excess of Sc- favors the formation of alternative DNA structures (R-loops, guanine quadruplexes, right-handed DNA (Z-DNA), plectonemic structures), which then absorb Sc- upon their formation and attract regulatory proteins.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -

Associated 16P11.2 Deletion in Drosophila Melanogaster
ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-04882-6 OPEN Pervasive genetic interactions modulate neurodevelopmental defects of the autism- associated 16p11.2 deletion in Drosophila melanogaster Janani Iyer1, Mayanglambam Dhruba Singh1, Matthew Jensen1,2, Payal Patel 1, Lucilla Pizzo1, Emily Huber1, Haley Koerselman3, Alexis T. Weiner 1, Paola Lepanto4, Komal Vadodaria1, Alexis Kubina1, Qingyu Wang 1,2, Abigail Talbert1, Sneha Yennawar1, Jose Badano 4, J. Robert Manak3,5, Melissa M. Rolls1, Arjun Krishnan6,7 & 1234567890():,; Santhosh Girirajan 1,2,8 As opposed to syndromic CNVs caused by single genes, extensive phenotypic heterogeneity in variably-expressive CNVs complicates disease gene discovery and functional evaluation. Here, we propose a complex interaction model for pathogenicity of the autism-associated 16p11.2 deletion, where CNV genes interact with each other in conserved pathways to modulate expression of the phenotype. Using multiple quantitative methods in Drosophila RNAi lines, we identify a range of neurodevelopmental phenotypes for knockdown of indi- vidual 16p11.2 homologs in different tissues. We test 565 pairwise knockdowns in the developing eye, and identify 24 interactions between pairs of 16p11.2 homologs and 46 interactions between 16p11.2 homologs and neurodevelopmental genes that suppress or enhance cell proliferation phenotypes compared to one-hit knockdowns. These interac- tions within cell proliferation pathways are also enriched in a human brain-specific network, providing translational relevance in humans. Our study indicates a role for pervasive genetic interactions within CNVs towards cellular and developmental phenotypes. 1 Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802, USA. 2 Bioinformatics and Genomics Program, The Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802, USA. -

Co-first authors. y Received: 29 August 2020; Accepted: 29 September 2020; Published: 2 October 2020 Simple Summary: Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins are conjugated to many other proteins within the cell, to regulate their stability, localization, and activity. These modifications are essential for normal cellular function and the disruption of these processes contributes to numerous cancer types. In this review, we discuss how ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins regulate the specialized replication pathways of DNA damage bypass, as well as how the disruption of these processes can contribute to cancer development. We also discuss how cancer cell survival relies on DNA damage bypass, and how targeting the regulation of these pathways by ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins might be an effective strategy in anti-cancer therapies. Abstract: Many endogenous and exogenous factors can induce genomic instability in human cells, in the form of DNA damage and mutations, that predispose them to cancer development. Normal cells rely on DNA damage bypass pathways such as translesion synthesis (TLS) and template switching (TS) to replicate past lesions that might otherwise result in prolonged replication stress and lethal double-strand breaks (DSBs). -

SPRTN is a replication-coupled DNA-dependent metalloprotease that cleaves proteins crosslinked to DNA to promote DPC repair. SPRTN function is tightly regulated by a monoubiquitin switch that controls SPRTN chromatin accessibility during DPC repair. The deubiquitinase regulating SPRTN function in DPC repair is unknown. Here, we identify USP11 as a SPRTN deubiquitinase. USP11 interacts with SPRTN and cleaves monoubiquitinated SPRTN in cells and in vitro. USP11 depletion impairs SPRTN deubiquitination in response to formaldehyde-induced DPCs. Loss of USP11 causes an accumulation of unrepaired DPCs and cellular hypersensitivity to treatment with DPC- inducing agents. Our findings elucidate the function of USP11 in the regulation of SPRTN monoubiquitination and SPRTN-mediated DPC repair. -
