Mouse Ndrg2 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Ndrg2 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Ndrg2 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Ndrg2 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_013864 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000004558 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 14. 16 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TGA stop codon in exon 16 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000004673). Exon 2~6 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Ndrg2 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-30G2 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: Mice homozygous for a null allele develop various types of tumors, including T-cell lymphomas, and have a shorter lifespan. Homozygotes for a second null allele show vertebral transformations. Homozygotes for a third null allele show reduced astrogliosis and inflammatory response after brain injury. Exon 2 starts from about 100% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 2~6 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 1 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 1776 bp, and the size of intron 6 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 1123 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~1983 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

Significant high GC-content regions are found. It may be difficult to construct this targeting vector.

Read Full License Page 1/10 Abstract Background N-Myc downstream-regulated gene2 (NDRG2) plays an important role in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation has signicantly improved prognosis in patients with adenocarcinoma. We aimed to elucidate the clinical value of NDRG2/EGFR as a prediction of prognosis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Materials and Methods Immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis were conducted to detect the expression of NDRG2 protein. Association between NDRG2/EGFR expression and clinicopathological parameters of the patients were examined. Serum Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level was examined prior to treatment in patients with LUAD. Patients’ survival rate was assessed by Kaplan–Meier. Candidates for independent prognostic biomarkers were analyzed using a COX proportional hazard model. Results NDRG2 levels were signicantly decreased in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. NDRG2 levels were positively correlated with CEA and EGFR.

Received November 20, 2018; Accepted January 8, 2019; Epub April 15, 2019; Published April 30, 2019 Abstract: N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (Ndrg2) is related to cell development. Previous studies have shown that Ndrg2 is highly expressed in pancreatic β cells. However, whether Ndrg2 participates in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetic mellitus remains unknown. The current study hypothesized that Ndrg2 may participate in the patho- genesis of type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) through inflammatory related IL-6/STAT3 pathways. Mice were divided into the diabetic and control group (normal mice). Diabetic mice were induced by a high-fat diet for 12 weeks, while the control group was feed with normal diet. Body weight, blood biochemical indexes, and IL-6 levels of the two groups were examined.

Methods: We characterized the t-tubule subproteome using 52,033 immunohistochemical images covering Keywords: 13,203 proteins from the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) cardiac tissue microarrays. We used HPASubC, a suite of Py- T-tubule fi Proteomics thon tools, to rapidly review and classify each image for a speci c t-tubule staining pattern. The tools Gene Cards, Caveolin String 11, and Gene Ontology Consortium as well as literature searches were used to understand pathways and relationships between the proteins. Results: There were 96 likely t-tubule proteins identified by HPASubC. Of these, 12 were matrisome proteins and 3 were mitochondrial proteins. A separate literature search identified 50 known t-tubule proteins. A comparison of the 2 lists revealed only 17 proteins in common, including 8 of the matrisome proteins. String11 revealed that 94 of 127 combined t-tubule proteins generated a single interconnected network. Conclusion: Using HPASubC and the HPA, we identified 78 novel, putative t-tubule proteins and validated 17 within the literature.

  • Array-Based Comparative Genomic Hybridization of Mapped BAC DNA Clones to Screen for Chromosome 14 Copy Number Abnormalities in Meningiomas

To date, no studies have been reported in which the entire chromosome 14q of meningioma tumour cells has been studied by high-resolution array comparative genomic hybridization (a-CGH). Here, we used a high-resolution a-CGH to define the exact localization and extent of numerical changes of chromosome 14 in meningioma patients. An array containing 807 bacterial artificial chromosome clones specific for chromosome 14q (average resolution of B130 Kb) was constructed and applied to the study of 25 meningiomas in parallel to the confirmatory interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (iFISH) analyses. Overall, abnormalities of chromosome 14q were detected in 10/25 cases (40%).

Clinical and molecular evidence indicates that lung adenocarcinoma is a heterogeneous disease, which has important implications for treatment. Here we performed genome-scale DNA methylation profiling using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation27 platform on 59 matched lung adenocarcinoma/non-tumor lung pairs, with genome-scale verifi- cation on an independent set of tissues.

RefSeq: NP_963833 Locus ID: 57447 UniProt ID: Q9UN36 RefSeq Size: 2052 Cytogenetics: 14q11.2 RefSeq ORF: 1113 Synonyms: SYLD Summary: This gene is a member of the N-myc downregulated gene family which belongs to the alpha/beta hydrolase superfamily. The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic protein that may play a role in neurite outgrowth. This gene may be involved in glioblastoma carcinogenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017] This product is to be used for laboratory only. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
