    Gagnier et al. Mobile DNA (2019) 10:15 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13100-019-0157-4 REVIEW Open Access Mouse germ line mutations due to retrotransposon insertions Liane Gagnier1, Victoria P. Belancio2 and Dixie L. Mager1* Abstract Transposable element (TE) insertions are responsible for a significant fraction of spontaneous germ line mutations reported in inbred mouse strains. This major contribution of TEs to the mutational landscape in mouse contrasts with the situation in human, where their relative contribution as germ line insertional mutagens is much lower. In this focussed review, we provide comprehensive lists of TE-induced mouse mutations, discuss the different TE types involved in these insertional mutations and elaborate on particularly interesting cases. We also discuss differences and similarities between the mutational role of TEs in mice and humans.

    A novel computational method for finding regions with copy number abnormalities in cancer cells Vivek, Manuel Garber, and Mike Zody Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Cambridge, MA, USA Introduction Results Cancer can result from the over expression of oncogenes, genes which control and regulate cell growth. Sometimes oncogenes increase in 1 2 3 activity due to a specific genetic mutation called a translocation (Fig 1). SMAD4 – a gene known to be deleted in pancreatic COX10 – a gene deleted in cytochrome c oxidase AK001392 – a hereditary prostate cancer protein This translocation allows the oncogene to remain as active as its paired carcinoma deficiency, known to be related to cell proliferation gene. Amplification of this mutation can occur, thereby creating the proper conditions for uncontrolled cell growth; consequently, each Results from Analysis Program Results from Analysis Program Results from Analysis Program component of the translocation will amplify in similar quantities.

Meisler, Chair Professor Sally A. Camper Professor David Ginsburg Associate Professor David C. Kohrman Assistant Professor Geoffrey G. Murphy Clement Y. Chow 2008 To my wife, Candace For all her love and support ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to thank my mentor, Miriam Meisler. She is the consummate scientist. Miriam is inquisitive and interested in a wide range of topics. This trait has taught me to always ask the right questions and be skeptical of conclusions that are not supported by data. Miriam’s unending desire to make each oral presentation perfect drove me to improve my own skills. I came to this lab without any public presentation skills, but I am now greatly improved in my presentation abilities, a skill crucial for a successful scientific career. Miriam is a perfectionist when it comes to writing and always encouraged me to do the same. I will continue to strive to perfect my writing abilities. I came to the lab wanting to positionally clone a mouse mutant. I told Miriam that I would stay in the lab if she allowed me to do so. She was supportive and excited from the beginning, allowing me to pursue a project with an unknown future. This allowed me to learn, first hand, many aspects of genetics that such a project provides.

DÉPARTEMENT D’OBSTÉTRIQUE ET DE GYNÉCOLOGIE FACULTÉ DE MÉDECINE UNIVERSITÉ LAVAL QUÉBEC 2012 © Marie Eve Bergeron, 2012 Résumé Les niveaux d’expression de nombreux gènes peuvent être affectés par l’environnement et mener au développement de la cryptorchidie. Cette malformation congénitale est la plus commune dont une des conséquences majeures est l’infertilité masculine due au testicule non-descendu, auquel un risque plus élevé de cancer testiculaire est associé. L’expression des ARN totaux isolés à partir de biopsies testiculaires ont été analysés par micropuces, puis par une analyse bio-informatique et une validation par RT-qPCR de plusieurs gènes sélectionnés. Ces analyses m’ont permis d’identifier plus de deux milles candidats montrant une expression différente entre des sujets cryptorchides et normaux. Certains de ces gènes sélectionnés peuvent être associés à la descente testiculaire, d’autres au cancer testiculaire ou encore aux divers types cellulaires retrouvés dans cet organe. Les différences dans le transcriptome dues à la cryptorchidie vont nous aider à comprendre la cause génétique de cette maladie. ii Abstract Expression level of numerous genes may be affected by environmental condition and lead to development of cryptorchidism. The most common congenital malformation in male is cryptorchidism. One major consequence of this anomaly is infertility due to undescended testis, to which an increased risk of testicular cancer is associated.

The aim of the present study is to explore the database and functional annotation of NF-κB target genes. Methods: In this study, we manually collected the most complete listing of all NF-κB target genes identified to date, including the NF-κB microRNA target genes and built the database of NF-κB target genes with the detailed information of each target gene and annotated it by DAVID tools. Results: The NF-κB target genes database was established (http://tfdb.seu.edu.cn/nfkb/). The collected data confirmed that NF-κB maintains multitudinous biological functions and possesses the considerable complexity and diversity in regulation the expression of corresponding target genes set. The data showed that the NF-κB was a central regula- tor of the stress response, immune response and cellular metabolic processes. NF-κB involved in bone disease, immunological disease and cardiovascular disease, various cancers and nervous disease. NF-κB can modulate the expression activity of other transcriptional factors. Inhibition of IKK and IκBα phosphorylation, the decrease of nuclear translocation of p65 and the reduction of intracellular glutathione level determined the up-regulation or down-regulation of expression of NF-κB target genes.
