Background and References Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome candidate 2 protein; WHSC2 protein; NELFA. WHSC2 is expressed ubiquitously with higher levels in fetal than in adult tissues. Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is a malformation syndrome associated with a hemizygous deletion of the distal short arm of chromosome 4. This gene is mapped to the 165 kb WHS critical region, and may play a role in the phenotype of the WHS or Pitt-Rogers-Danks syndrome. BACKGROUND: The encoded protein is found to be capable of reacting with HLA-A2-restricted and tumor- specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes, suggesting a target for use in specific immunotherapy for a large number of cancer patients. This protein has also been shown to be a member of the NELF (negative elongation factor) protein complex that participates in the regulation of RNA polymerase II transcription elongation. 1) Narita,T., Yamaguchi,Y., Yano,K., Sugimoto,S., Chanarat,S., Wada,T., Kim,D.

CELLULAR AND PROCESS ENGINEERING TO IMPROVE MAMMALIAN MEMBRANE PROTEIN EXPRESSION By Su Xiao A dissertation is submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland May 2015 © 2015 Su Xiao All Rights Reserved Abstract Improving the expression level of recombinant mammalian proteins has been pursued for production of commercial biotherapeutics in industry, as well as for biomedical studies in academia, as an adequate supply of correctly folded proteins is a prerequisite for all structure and function studies. Presented in this dissertation are different strategies to improve protein functional expression level, especially for membrane proteins. The model protein is neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1), a hard-to- express G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). GPCRs are integral membrane proteins playing a central role in cell signaling and are targets for most of the medicines sold worldwide. Obtaining adequate functional GPCRs has been a bottleneck in their structure studies because the expression of these proteins from mammalian cells is very low. The first strategy is the adoption of mammalian inducible expression system. A stable and inducible T-REx-293 cell line overexpressing an engineered rat NTSR1 was constructed. 2.5 million Functional copies of NTSR1 per cell were detected on plasma membrane, which is 167 fold improvement comparing to NTSR1 constitutive expression. The second strategy is production process development including suspension culture adaptation and induction parameter optimization. A further 3.5 fold improvement was achieved and approximately 1 milligram of purified functional NTSR1 per liter suspension culture was obtained. This was comparable yield to the transient baculovirus- insect cell system.

To determine the full spectrum of NELF target genes in Drosophila, we performed a microarray analysis of S2 cells depleted of NELF and discovered that NELF RNAi affects many rapidly inducible genes involved in cellular responses to stimuli.

Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome
Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome Author: Dr. Dagmar Wieczorek Creation date: September 2003 Scientific editor: Professor Alain Verloes Institut fur Humangenetik, Universitatsklinikum Essen, Hufelandstrasse 55, 45122 Essen, Germany. [email protected] Abstract Key words Disease name and synonyms Excluded diseases Diagnostic criteria/ definition Differential diagnosis Frequency Clinical description Management including treatment Etiology Diagnostic methods Genetic counseling Antenatal diagnosis Unresolved questions References Abstract Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is caused by a deletion of the band 4p16.3 and this deletion may be submicroscopic. The craniofacial phenotype (microcephaly, hypertelorism, prominent glabella, broad and/or beaked nose, short philtrum, micrognathia, downturned corners of the mouth, dysplastic ears, preauricular tags) in combination with mental retardation, seizures, congenital heart defects, genital and renal anomalies is indicative for the diagnosis. A familial translocation is responsible for 5 – 13% of the patients. The remainder of the patients have de novo deletions, usually on the paternal chromosome 4, or de novo translocations in 1.6 %. Submicroscopic deletions require molecular techniques, e.g. microsatellite analysis, or molecular-cytogenetic techniques, e.g. fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH), to detect the deletion. Fluorescence in situ hybridisation of the patient and his parents should be performed to confirm/exclude translocations. Recurrence risk is low in de novo deletions and translocations,

Deletions Involving Genes WHSC1 and LETM1 May Be Necessary, but Are Not Sufficient to Cause Wolf&Ndash;Hirschhorn Syndrome
European Journal of Human Genetics (2014) 22, 464–470 & 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1018-4813/14 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE Deletions involving genes WHSC1 and LETM1 may be necessary, but are not sufficient to cause Wolf–Hirschhorn Syndrome Erica F Andersen*,1,2, John C Carey3, Dawn L Earl4, Deyanira Corzo5, Michael Suttie6, Peter Hammond6 and Sarah T South1,2,3 Wolf–Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is a complex genetic disorder caused by the loss of genomic material from the short arm of chromosome 4. Genotype–phenotype correlation studies indicated that the loss of genes within 4p16.3 is necessary for expression of the core features of the phenotype. Within this region, haploinsufficiency of the genes WHSC1 and LETM1 is thought to be a major contributor to the pathogenesis of WHS. We present clinical findings for three patients with relatively small (o400 kb) de novo interstitial deletions that overlap WHSC1 and LETM1. 3D facial analysis was performed for two of these patients. Based on our findings, we propose that hemizygosity of WHSC1 and LETM1 is associated with a clinical phenotype characterized by growth deficiency, feeding difficulties, and motor and speech delays. The deletion of additional genes nearby WHSC1 and LETM1 does not result in a marked increase in the severity of clinical features, arguing against their haploinsufficiency. The absence of seizures and typical WHS craniofacial findings in our cohort suggest that deletion of distinct or additional 4p16.3 genes is necessary for expression of these features. Altogether, these results show that although loss-of- function for WHSC1 and/or LETM1 contributes to some of the features of WHS, deletion of additional genes is required for the full expression of the phenotype, providing further support that WHS is a contiguous gene deletion disorder.

Haploinsufficiency of LETM1, which encodes a mitochondrial critical regions have been described: WHSCR1 and WHSCR2, for inner-membrane protein functioning in ion transport, has been WHS critical region 1 and 2, respectively (see Fig. 1).

Growing evidence derived from several model organisms incorporates part of the WHS candidate gene WHSC1 and the entire suggests that reduced LETM1 expression is associated with some WHSC2 gene (White et al., 1995; Wright et al., 1997).

Disorders of Sex Development in Wolf–Hirschhorn Syndrome: a Genotype
Rjiba et al. Mol Cytogenet (2021) 14:12 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13039-021-00531-8 RESEARCH Open Access Disorders of sex development in Wolf– Hirschhorn syndrome: a genotype–phenotype correlation and MSX1 as candidate gene Khouloud Rjiba1,2,3, Hédia Ayech4, Olfa Kraiem5, Wafa Slimani1,2,3, Afef Jelloul1, Imen Ben Hadj Hmida1, Nabiha Mahdhaoui4, Ali Saad1,3 and Soumaya Mougou‑Zerelli1,3* Abstract Background: Wolf–Hirschhorn (WHS) is a set of congenital physical anomalies and mental retardation associated with a partial deletion of the short arm of chromosome 4. To establish a genotype–phenotype correlation; we carried out a molecular cytogenetic analysis on two Tunisian WHS patients. Patient 1 was a boy of 1‑year‑old, presented a typical WHS phenotype while patient 2, is a boy of 2 days presented an hypospadias, a micropenis and a cryptorchidie in addition to the typical WHS phenotype. Both the array comparative genomic hybridization and fuorescence in situ hybridization techniques were used. Results: Results of the analysis showed that patient 2 had a greater deletion size (4.8 Mb) of chromosome 4 than patient 1 (3.4 Mb). Here, we notice that the larger the deletion, the more genes are likely to be involved, and the more severe the phenotype is likely to be. If we analyze the uncommon deleted region between patient1 and patient 2 we found that the Muscle Segment Homeobox (MSX1) gene is included in this region. MSX1 is a critical transcriptional repressor factor, expressed in the ventral side of the developing anterior pituitary and implicated in gonadotrope diferentiation.
