Protein Interaction Network of Alternatively Spliced Isoforms from Brain Links Genetic Risk Factors for Autism
ARTICLE Received 24 Aug 2013 | Accepted 14 Mar 2014 | Published 11 Apr 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms4650 OPEN Protein interaction network of alternatively spliced isoforms from brain links genetic risk factors for autism Roser Corominas1,*, Xinping Yang2,3,*, Guan Ning Lin1,*, Shuli Kang1,*, Yun Shen2,3, Lila Ghamsari2,3,w, Martin Broly2,3, Maria Rodriguez2,3, Stanley Tam2,3, Shelly A.

Iakoucheva1 Increased risk for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is attributed to hundreds of genetic loci. The convergence of ASD variants have been investigated using various approaches, including protein interactions extracted from the published literature. However, these datasets are frequently incomplete, carry biases and are limited to interactions of a single splicing isoform, which may not be expressed in the disease-relevant tissue. Here we introduce a new interactome mapping approach by experimentally identifying interactions between brain-expressed alternatively spliced variants of ASD risk factors. The Autism Spliceform Interaction Network reveals that almost half of the detected interactions and about 30% of the newly identified interacting partners represent contribution from splicing variants, emphasizing the importance of isoform networks. Isoform interactions greatly contribute to establishing direct physical connections between proteins from the de novo autism CNVs. Our findings demonstrate the critical role of spliceform networks for translating genetic knowledge into a better understanding of human diseases. -

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. -
Proteomics Provides Insights Into the Inhibition of Chinese Hamster V79
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Proteomics provides insights into the inhibition of Chinese hamster V79 cell proliferation in the deep underground environment Jifeng Liu1,2, Tengfei Ma1,2, Mingzhong Gao3, Yilin Liu4, Jun Liu1, Shichao Wang2, Yike Xie2, Ling Wang2, Juan Cheng2, Shixi Liu1*, Jian Zou1,2*, Jiang Wu2, Weimin Li2 & Heping Xie2,3,5 As resources in the shallow depths of the earth exhausted, people will spend extended periods of time in the deep underground space. However, little is known about the deep underground environment afecting the health of organisms. Hence, we established both deep underground laboratory (DUGL) and above ground laboratory (AGL) to investigate the efect of environmental factors on organisms. Six environmental parameters were monitored in the DUGL and AGL. Growth curves were recorded and tandem mass tag (TMT) proteomics analysis were performed to explore the proliferative ability and diferentially abundant proteins (DAPs) in V79 cells (a cell line widely used in biological study in DUGLs) cultured in the DUGL and AGL. Parallel Reaction Monitoring was conducted to verify the TMT results. γ ray dose rate showed the most detectable diference between the two laboratories, whereby γ ray dose rate was signifcantly lower in the DUGL compared to the AGL. V79 cell proliferation was slower in the DUGL. Quantitative proteomics detected 980 DAPs (absolute fold change ≥ 1.2, p < 0.05) between V79 cells cultured in the DUGL and AGL. Of these, 576 proteins were up-regulated and 404 proteins were down-regulated in V79 cells cultured in the DUGL. KEGG pathway analysis revealed that seven pathways (e.g. -
