Mouse Card11 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Card11 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Card11 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Card11 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_175362 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000036526 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 5. 25 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TGA stop codon in exon 25 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000085786). Exon 4~5 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Card11 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-57O6 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 targeted null mutation exhibit defects in antigen receptor signalling in both T and B lymphocytes. Exon 4 starts from about 6.38% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 4~5 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 3 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 4545 bp, and the size of intron 5 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 3707 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~2528 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

  • Molecular Architecture and Regulation of BCL10-MALT1 Filaments
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-06573-8 OPEN Molecular architecture and regulation of BCL10-MALT1 filaments Florian Schlauderer1, Thomas Seeholzer2, Ambroise Desfosses3, Torben Gehring2, Mike Strauss 4, Karl-Peter Hopfner 1, Irina Gutsche3, Daniel Krappmann2 & Katja Lammens1 The CARD11-BCL10-MALT1 (CBM) complex triggers the adaptive immune response in lymphocytes and lymphoma cells. CARD11/CARMA1 acts as a molecular seed inducing 1234567890():,; BCL10 filaments, but the integration of MALT1 and the assembly of a functional CBM complex has remained elusive. Using cryo-EM we solved the helical structure of the BCL10- MALT1 filament. The structural model of the filament core solved at 4.9 Å resolution iden- tified the interface between the N-terminal MALT1 DD and the BCL10 caspase recruitment domain. The C-terminal MALT1 Ig and paracaspase domains protrude from this core to orchestrate binding of mediators and substrates at the filament periphery. Mutagenesis studies support the importance of the identified BCL10-MALT1 interface for CBM complex assembly, MALT1 protease activation and NF-κB signaling in Jurkat and primary CD4 T-cells. Collectively, we present a model for the assembly and architecture of the CBM signaling complex and how it functions as a signaling hub in T-lymphocytes. 1 Gene Center, Ludwig-Maximilians University, Feodor-Lynen-Str. 25, 81377 München, Germany. 2 Research Unit Cellular Signal Integration, Institute of Molecular Toxicology and Pharmacology, Helmholtz-Zentrum München - German Research Center for Environmental Health, Ingolstaedter Landstrasse 1, 85764 Neuherberg, Germany. 3 University Grenoble Alpes, CNRS, CEA, Institut de Biologie Structurale IBS, F-38044 Grenoble, France. 4 Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology, McGill University, Montreal, Canada H3A 0C7.

Lash ([email protected]) Turner syndrome (TS) is a congenital disease caused by complete or partial loss of one X chromosome. Low bone mineral status is a major phenotypic characteristic of TS that can not be fully explained by X chromosome loss, suggesting other autosomal-linked mutations may also exist. Therefore, the present study aimed to detect potential genetic mutations in TS through examination of copy number variation (CNV). Seventeen patients with TS and 15 healthy volunteer girls were recruited. Array-based comparative genomic hybridization (a-CGH) was performed on whole blood genomic DNA (gDMA) from the 17 TS patients and 15 healthy volunteer girls to identify potential CNVs. The abnormal CNV of one identified gene (CARD11) was verified by quantitative PCR.

  • Protein Kinase C Inhibitor Sotrastaurin Selectively Inhibits the Growth of CD79 Mutant Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphomas
    Published OnlineFirst February 15, 2011; DOI: 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-10-2525 Cancer Therapeutics, Targets, and Chemical Biology Research Protein Kinase C Inhibitor Sotrastaurin Selectively Inhibits the Growth of CD79 Mutant Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphomas Tara L. Naylor1, Huaping Tang1, Boris A. Ratsch2, Andreas Enns2, Alice Loo1, Liqing Chen1, Peter Lenz3, Nigel J. Waters1, Walter Schuler4, Bernd Dorken€ 2, Yung-mae Yao1, Markus Warmuth1, Georg Lenz2, and Frank Stegmeier1 Abstract The activated B-cell–like (ABC) subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) correlates with poor prognosis. The ABC subtype of DLBCL is associated with constitutive activation of the NF-kB pathway, and oncogenic lesions have been identified in its regulators, including CARD11/CARMA1 (caspase recruitment domain-containing protein 11), A20/TNFAIP3, and CD79A/B. In this study, we offer evidence of therapeutic potential for the selective PKC (protein kinase C) inhibitor sotrastaurin (STN) in preclinical models of DLBCL. A significant fraction of ABC DLBCL cell lines exhibited strong sensitivity to STN, and we found that the molecular nature of NF-kB pathway lesions predicted responsiveness. CD79A/B mutations correlated with STN sensitivity, whereas CARD11 mutations rendered ABC DLBCL cell lines insensitive. Growth inhibitory effects of PKC inhibition correlated with NF-kB pathway inhibition and were mediated by induction of G1-phase cell-cycle arrest and/or cell death. We found that STN produced significant antitumor effects in a mouse xenograft model of CD79A/B-mutated DLBCL. Collectively, our findings offer a strong rationale for the clinical evaluation of STN in ABC DLBCL patients who harbor CD79 mutations also illustrating the necessity to stratify DLBCL patients according to their genetic abnormalities.

Using high- throughput whole transcriptome sequencing, we investigated a unique family with hereditary polyclonal B cell lymphocytosis. We found a novel germline heterozygous missense mutation (E127G) in affected patients in the gene encoding CARD11, a scaffolding protein required for antigen receptor (AgR)–induced NF-B activation in both B and T lymphocytes.

  • Structures of Autoinhibited and Polymerized Forms of CARD9 Reveal Mechanisms of CARD9 and CARD11 Activation
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-10953-z OPEN Structures of autoinhibited and polymerized forms of CARD9 reveal mechanisms of CARD9 and CARD11 activation Michael J. Holliday 1, Axel Witt1, Alejandro Rodríguez Gama2, Benjamin T. Walters 3, Christopher P. Arthur4, Randal Halfmann2,5, Alexis Rohou 4, Erin C. Dueber1 & Wayne J. Fairbrother 1 1234567890():,; CARD9 and CARD11 drive immune cell activation by nucleating Bcl10 polymerization, but are held in an autoinhibited state prior to stimulation. Here, we elucidate the structural basis for this autoinhibition by determining the structure of a region of CARD9 that includes an extensive interface between its caspase recruitment domain (CARD) and coiled-coil domain. We demonstrate, for both CARD9 and CARD11, that disruption of this interface leads to hyperactivation in cells and to the formation of Bcl10-templating filaments in vitro, illumi- nating the mechanism of action of numerous oncogenic mutations of CARD11. These structural insights enable us to characterize two similar, yet distinct, mechanisms by which autoinhibition is relieved in the course of canonical CARD9 or CARD11 activation. We also dissect the molecular determinants of helical template assembly by solving the structure of the CARD9 filament. Taken together, these findings delineate the structural mechanisms of inhibition and activation within this protein family. 1 Early Discovery Biochemistry Department, Genentech, South San Francisco, CA 94080, USA. 2 Stowers Institute for Medical Research, Kansas City, MO 64110, USA. 3 Biochemical and Cellular Pharmacology Department, Genentech, South San Francisco, CA 94080, USA. 4 Structural Biology Department, Genentech, South San Francisco, CA 94080, USA. 5 Department of Molecular and Integrative Physiology, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS 66160, USA.
