The hormone-specific β subunit is encoded by six allelic genes: CGB3, CGB5, CGB6, CGB7, CGB8, and CGB9, mapped to the 19q13.32 locus. This gene cluster also encompasses the CGB1 and CGB2 genes, which were originally considered to be pseudogenes, but as documented by several studies are transcriptionally active. Even though the protein products of these genes have not yet been identified, based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database analysis we showed that the mutual presence of CGB1 and CGB2 transcripts is a characteristic feature of cancers of different origin, including bladder urothelial carcinoma, cervical squamous cell carcinoma, esophageal carcinoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma, lung squamous cell carcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, rectum adenocacinoma, testis germ cell tumors, thymoma, uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma and uterine carcinosarcoma.

Received: 1 March 2013; in revised form: 28 March 2013 / Accepted: 9 May 2013 / Published: 17 June 2013 Abstract: Human chorionic gonadotropin beta subunit (CGB) is a marker of pregnancy as well as trophoblastic and nontrophoblastic tumors. CGB is encoded by a cluster of six genes, of which type II genes (CGB3/9, 5 and 8) have been shown to be upregulated in relation to type I genes (CGB6/7) in both placentas and tumors. Recent studies revealed that CGB1 and CGB2, originally considered as pseudogenes, might also be active, however, the protein products of these genes have not yet been identified. Our study demonstrates the presence of CGB1 and CGB2 transcripts in ovarian carcinomas. While CGB1 and CGB2 gene activation was not detected in normal ovaries lacking cancerous development, our study demonstrates the presence of CGB1 and CGB2 transcripts in 41% of analyzed ovarian cancer cases.

  • The Evolution and Genomic Landscape of CGB1 and CGB2 Genes
    Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology 260–262 (2007) 2–11 The evolution and genomic landscape of CGB1 and CGB2 genes Pille Hallast a, Kristiina Rull a,b, Maris Laan a,∗ a Department of Biotechnology, Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of Tartu, Riia 23, 51010 Tartu, Estonia b Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Tartu, Estonia Received 12 August 2005; accepted 28 November 2005 Abstract The origin of completely novel proteins is a significant question in evolution. The luteinizing hormone (LHB)/chorionic gonadotropin (CGB) gene cluster in humans contains a candidate example of this process. Two genes in this cluster (CGB1 and CGB2) exhibit nucleotide sequence similarity with the other LHB/CGB genes, but as a result of frameshifting are predicted to encode a completely novel protein. Our analysis of these genes from humans and related primates indicates a recent origin in the lineage specific to humans and African great apes. While the function of these genes is not yet known, they are strongly conserved between human and chimpanzee and exhibit three-fold lower diversity than LHB across human populations with no mutations that would disrupt the coding sequence. The 5-upstream region of CGB1/2 contains most of the promoter sequence of hCG␤ plus a novel region proximal to the putative transcription start site. In silico prediction of putative transcription factor binding sites supports the hypothesis that CGB1 and CGB2 gene products are expressed in, and may contribute to, implantation and placental development. © 2006 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

  • Segmental Duplications and Gene Conversion: Human Luteinizing Hormone/Chorionic Gonadotropin ␤ Gene Cluster
    Downloaded from genome.cshlp.org on September 25, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Letter Segmental duplications and gene conversion: Human luteinizing hormone/chorionic gonadotropin ␤ gene cluster Pille Hallast, Liina Nagirnaja, Tõnu Margus, and Maris Laan1 Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of Tartu, Riia 23, 51010 Tartu, Estonia Segmental duplicons (>1 kb) of high sequence similarity (>90%) covering >5% of the human genome are characterized by complex sequence variation. Apart from a few well-characterized regions (MHC, ␤-globin), the diversity and linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns of duplicons and the role of gene conversion in shaping them have been poorly studied. To shed light on these issues, we have re-sequenced the human Luteinizing Hormone/Chorionic Gonadotropin ␤ (LHB/CGB) cluster (19q13.32) of three population samples (Estonians, Mandenka, and Han). The LHB/CGB cluster consists of seven duplicated genes critical in human reproduction. In the LHB/CGB region, high sequence diversity, concentration of gene-conversion acceptor sites, and strong LD colocalize with peripheral genes, whereas central loci are characterized by lower variation, gene-conversion donor activity, and breakdown of LD between close markers. The data highlight an important role of gene conversion in spreading polymorphisms among duplicon copies and generating LD around them. The directionality of gene-conversion events seems to be determined by the localization of a predicted recombination “hotspot” and “warm spot” in the vicinity of the most active acceptor genes at the periphery of the cluster. The data suggest that enriched crossover activity in direct and inverted segmental repeats is in accordance with the formation of palindromic secondary structures promoting double-strand breaks rather than fixed DNA sequence motifs.
