PubMed: PubMed Mitochondria are the center of cellular energy production and essential metabolic Product Detail: reactions. As double membrane-bound organelles, mitochondria from different species, tissues, and metabolic states are highly polymorphic in nature, yet exhibit common structural features. The ultrastructural variations in mitochondrial architecture occur mainly due to the differences in the amount and shape of cristae. Abundant cristae are found in mitochondria from tissues where energy demand is high. Analysis of the human heart mitochondrial proteome shows that mitofilin is one of the most abundant mitochondrial proteins. It appears to play an important role in the maintenance of cristae morphology. Mitofilin was originally described as heart muscle protein (HMP) because of its high expression in the heart. Subunit: Interacts with OPA1, preferentially with the soluble OPA1 form. Component of the MINOS/MitOS complex, that includes IMMT, HSPA9 and CHCHD3 and associates with mitochondrial outer membrane proteins SAMM50, MTX1 and MTX2. Interacts with CHCHD6; the interaction is direct. Subcellular Location: Mitochondrion inner membrane.

  • Alternate-Locus Aware Variant Calling in Whole Genome Sequencing Marten Jäger1,2, Max Schubach1, Tomasz Zemojtel1,Knutreinert3, Deanna M
    Jäger et al. Genome Medicine (2016) 8:130 DOI 10.1186/s13073-016-0383-z RESEARCH Open Access Alternate-locus aware variant calling in whole genome sequencing Marten Jäger1,2, Max Schubach1, Tomasz Zemojtel1,KnutReinert3, Deanna M. Church4 and Peter N. Robinson1,2,3,5,6* Abstract Background: The last two human genome assemblies have extended the previous linear golden-path paradigm of the human genome to a graph-like model to better represent regions with a high degree of structural variability. The new model offers opportunities to improve the technical validity of variant calling in whole-genome sequencing (WGS). Methods: We developed an algorithm that analyzes the patterns of variant calls in the 178 structurally variable regions of the GRCh38 genome assembly, and infers whether a given sample is most likely to contain sequences from the primary assembly, an alternate locus, or their heterozygous combination at each of these 178 regions. We investigate 121 in-house WGS datasets that have been aligned to the GRCh37 and GRCh38 assemblies. Results: We show that stretches of sequences that are largely but not entirely identical between the primary assembly and an alternate locus can result in multiple variant calls against regions of the primary assembly. In WGS analysis, this results in characteristic and recognizable patterns of variant calls at positions that we term alignable scaffold-discrepant positions (ASDPs). In 121 in-house genomes, on average 51.8 ± 3.8 of the 178 regions were found to correspond best to an alternate locus rather than the primary assembly sequence, and filtering these genomes with our algorithm led to the identification of 7863 variant calls per genome that colocalized with ASDPs.

In this study, we examined 491,526 autosomal single nucleotide poly- morphisms (SNPs) genotyped in 5210 individuals and conducted a genome-wide search for selection signals in 1890 AfA. Several genomic regions showing an excess of African or European ancestry, which were considered the footprints of selection since population admixture, were detected based on a commonly used approach. However, we also developed a new strategy to detect natural selection both pre- and post-admixture by reconstructing an ancestral African population (AAF) from inferred African components of ancestry in AfA and comparing it with indigenous African populations (IAF).

Received: 2021.05.06; Accepted: 2021.07.09; Published: 2021.07.25 Abstract Sorafenib is the standard first-line drug for the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), however, its therapeutic efficacy is not satisfactory due to primary or secondary resistance of HCC cells. In the present study, we identified Metaxin 1 (MTX1) as a new regulator of sorafenib resistance in HCC through genome-scale CRISPR activation (CRISPRa) screening. We found that MTX1 was frequently upregulated in HCC tissues and overexpression of MTX1 promoted HCC cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo. As well, MTX1 overexpression increased cell growth rate and decreased cell apoptosis upon sorafenib treatment. Consistently, the resistance induced by MTX1 was also observed in subcutaneous xenograft tumor model.

  • Genetic Interaction Mapping and Exon-Resolution Functional Genomics with a Hybrid Cas9–Cas12a Platform

Blencowe1,2 ✉ and Jason Moffat 1,2,5 ✉ Systematic mapping of genetic interactions (GIs) and interrogation of the functions of sizable genomic segments in mammalian cells represent important goals of biomedical research. To advance these goals, we present a CRISPR (clustered regularly inter- spaced short palindromic repeats)-based screening system for combinatorial genetic manipulation that employs coexpression of CRISPR-associated nucleases 9 and 12a (Cas9 and Cas12a) and machine-learning-optimized libraries of hybrid Cas9–Cas12a guide RNAs. This system, named Cas Hybrid for Multiplexed Editing and screening Applications (CHyMErA), outperforms genetic screens using Cas9 or Cas12a editing alone. Application of CHyMErA to the ablation of mammalian paralog gene pairs reveals extensive GIs and uncovers phenotypes normally masked by functional redundancy. Application of CHyMErA in a che- mogenetic interaction screen identifies genes that impact cell growth in response to mTOR pathway inhibition. Moreover, by systematically targeting thousands of alternative splicing events, CHyMErA identifies exons underlying human cell line fit- ness. CHyMErA thus represents an effective screening approach for GI mapping and the functional analysis of sizable genomic regions, such as alternative exons. ecent breakthroughs in gene editing technologies have trans- Key to addressing these questions is the generation of tools formed mammalian cell genetics and disease research1–4.

However, linking common variants to genes that are causal for CKD etiology remains challenging. By adapting self-transcribing active regulatory region sequencing, we evaluated the effect of genetic variation on DNA regulatory elements (DREs). Variants in linkage with the CKD-associated single-nucleotide polymorphism rs11959928 were shown to affect DRE function, illustrating that genes regulated by DREs colocalizing with CKD-associated variation can be dysregulated and therefore, considered as CKD candidate genes. To identify target genes of these DREs, we used circular chro- mosome conformation capture (4C) sequencing on glomerular endothelial cells and renal tubular epithelial cells. Our 4C analyses revealed interactions of CKD-associated susceptibility regions with the transcriptional start sites of 304 target genes. Overlap with multiple databases confirmed that many of these target genes are involved in kidney homeostasis.

  • Mouse Gba Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
    https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Gba Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Gba conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Gba gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_008094 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000028048 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 3. 12 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 3 and the TGA stop codon in exon 12 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000167998). Exon 6~8 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Gba gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-237D17 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: Mutations in this locus variably lower enzyme activity and result in accumulated glucocerebroside in reticuloendotehelial cell lysosomes and glucosylceramide in brain, liver and skin. Severe mutants die perinatally with compromised epidermal permeability. Exon 6 starts from about 25.57% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 6~8 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 5 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 1025 bp, and the size of intron 8 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 858 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~1422 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

  • Loss of MTX2 Causes Mandibuloacral Dysplasia and Links Mitochondrial Dysfunction to Altered Nuclear Morphology
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-18146-9 OPEN Loss of MTX2 causes mandibuloacral dysplasia and links mitochondrial dysfunction to altered nuclear morphology Sahar Elouej et al.# Mandibuloacral dysplasia syndromes are mainly due to recessive LMNA or ZMPSTE24 mutations, with cardinal nuclear morphological abnormalities and dysfunction. We report 1234567890():,; five homozygous null mutations in MTX2, encoding Metaxin-2 (MTX2), an outer mito- chondrial membrane protein, in patients presenting with a severe laminopathy-like mandi- buloacral dysplasia characterized by growth retardation, bone resorption, arterial calcification, renal glomerulosclerosis and severe hypertension. Loss of MTX2 in patients’ primary fibroblasts leads to loss of Metaxin-1 (MTX1) and mitochondrial dysfunction, including network fragmentation and oxidative phosphorylation impairment. Furthermore, patients’ fibroblasts are resistant to induced apoptosis, leading to increased cell senescence and mitophagy and reduced proliferation. Interestingly, secondary nuclear morphological defects are observed in both MTX2-mutant fibroblasts and mtx-2-depleted C. elegans.We thus report the identification of a severe premature aging syndrome revealing an unsuspected link between mitochondrial composition and function and nuclear morphology, establishing a pathophysiological link with premature aging laminopathies and likely explaining common clinical features. #A list of authors and their affiliations appears at the end of the paper.

T. C Industrial Area, Rabale, Navi Mumbai, 400701, India. Abstract The ability of Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) to transform resting cell B-cells into immortalized lym- phoblastoid cell lines (LCL) provides a continuous source of peripheral blood lymphocytes that are used to model conditions in which these lymphocytes play a key role. Here, the PacBio generated transcrip- tome of three LCLs from a parent-daughter trio (SRAid:SRP036136) provided by a previous study [1] were analyzed using a kmer-based version of YeATS (KEATS). The set of over-expressed genes in these cell lines were determined based on a comparison with the PacBio transcriptome of twenty tissues pro- vided by another study (hOPTRS) [2]. MIR155 long non-coding RNA (MIR155HG), Fc fragment of IgE receptor II (FCER2), T-cell leukemia/lymphoma 1A (TCL1A), and germinal center associated signaling and motility (GCSAM) were genes having the highest expression counts in the three LCLs with no ex- pression in hOPTRS. Other over-expressed genes, having low expression in hOPTRS, were membrane spanning 4-domains A1 (MS4A1) and ribosomal protein S2 pseudogene 55 (RPS2P55). While some of these genes are known to be over-expressed in LCLs, this study provides a comprehensive cataloguing of such genes.
