Mouse Clstn1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Clstn1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Clstn1 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Clstn1 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_023051 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000039953 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 4. 19 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 19 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000039144). Exon 3~9 will be selected as target site. Cas9 and gRNA will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for KO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Juvenile mice homozygous for a null allele show reduced basal excitatory synaptic transmission, abnormal excitatory postsynaptic currents, enhanced NMDA receptor-dependent long term potentiation, and delayed dendritic spine maturation in CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells. Exon 3 starts from about 7.32% of the coding region. Exon 3~9 covers 38.88% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~9269 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

  • Using Categories Defined by Chromosome Bands
    Using Categories defined by Chromosome Bands D. Sarkar, S. Falcon, R. Gentleman August 7, 2008 1 Chromosome bands Typically, in higher organisms, each chromosome has a centromere and two arms. The short arm is called the p arm and the longer arm the q arm. Chromosome bands (see Figure 1) are identified by differential staining, usually with Giemsa-based stains, and many disease-related defects have been mapped to these bands; such mappings have played an important role in classical cytogenetics. With the availability of complete sequences for several genomes, there have been efforts to link these bands with specific sequence locations (Furey and Haussler, 2003). The estimated location of the bands in the reference genomes can be obtained from the UCSC genome browser, and data linking genes to particular bands can be obtained from a variety of sources such as the NCBI. This vignette demonstrates tools that allow the use of categories derived from chromosome bands, that is, the relevant categories are determined a priori by a mapping of genes to chromosome bands. Figure 1 shows an ideogram of human chromosome 12, with the band 12q21 shaded. As shown in the figure, 12q21 can be divided into more granular levels 12q21.1, 12q21.2, and 12q21.3. 12q21.3 can itself be divided at an even finer level of resolution into 12q21.31, 12q21.32, and 12q21.33. Moving towards less granular bands, 12q21 is a part of 12q2 which is again a part of 12q. We take advantage of this nested structure of the bands in our analysis.

  • Oxidized Phospholipids Regulate Amino Acid Metabolism Through MTHFD2 to Facilitate Nucleotide Release in Endothelial Cells
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-04602-0 OPEN Oxidized phospholipids regulate amino acid metabolism through MTHFD2 to facilitate nucleotide release in endothelial cells Juliane Hitzel1,2, Eunjee Lee3,4, Yi Zhang 3,5,Sofia Iris Bibli2,6, Xiaogang Li7, Sven Zukunft 2,6, Beatrice Pflüger1,2, Jiong Hu2,6, Christoph Schürmann1,2, Andrea Estefania Vasconez1,2, James A.

Brandes1,2 Oxidized phospholipids (oxPAPC) induce endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Here we show that oxPAPC induce a gene network regulating serine-glycine metabolism with the mitochondrial methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase (MTHFD2) as a cau- sal regulator using integrative network modeling and Bayesian network analysis in human aortic endothelial cells. The cluster is activated in human plaque material and by atherogenic lipo- proteins isolated from plasma of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the MTHFD2-controlled cluster associate with CAD. The MTHFD2-controlled cluster redirects metabolism to glycine synthesis to replenish purine nucleotides. Since endothelial cells secrete purines in response to oxPAPC, the MTHFD2- controlled response maintains endothelial ATP. Accordingly, MTHFD2-dependent glycine synthesis is a prerequisite for angiogenesis. Thus, we propose that endothelial cells undergo MTHFD2-mediated reprogramming toward serine-glycine and mitochondrial one-carbon metabolism to compensate for the loss of ATP in response to oxPAPC during atherosclerosis.

  • A Genome-Wide Map of Circular Rnas in Adult Zebrafish
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A genome-wide map of circular RNAs in adult zebrafsh Disha Sharma1,3, Paras Sehgal2,3, Samatha Mathew2,3, Shamsudheen Karuthedath Vellarikkal2,3, Angom Ramcharan Singh2, Shruti Kapoor1,3, Rijith Jayarajan2, Vinod Scaria1,3 & 2,3 Received: 10 May 2016 Sridhar Sivasubbu Accepted: 3 September 2018 Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are transcript isoforms generated by back-splicing of exons and circularisation Published: xx xx xxxx of the transcript. Recent genome-wide maps created for circular RNAs in humans and other model organisms have motivated us to explore the repertoire of circular RNAs in zebrafsh, a popular model organism. We generated RNA-seq data for fve major zebrafsh tissues - Blood, Brain, Heart, Gills and Muscle. The repertoire RNA sequence reads left over after reference mapping to linear transcripts were used to identify unique back-spliced exons utilizing a split-mapping algorithm. Our analysis revealed 3,428 novel circRNAs in zebrafsh. Further in-depth analysis suggested that majority of the circRNAs were derived from previously well-annotated protein-coding and long noncoding RNA gene loci. In addition, many of the circular RNAs showed extensive tissue specifcity. We independently validated a subset of circRNAs using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and divergent set of primers. Expression analysis using quantitative real time PCR recapitulate selected tissue specifcity in the candidates studied. This study provides a comprehensive genome-wide map of circular RNAs in zebrafsh tissues. Te recent years have seen an in-depth annotation of transcriptome using next-generation sequencing technol- ogies, signifcantly enhancing the repertoire of transcripts and transcript isoforms identifed for protein-coding as well as noncoding RNA genes1.

To better understand the functions and interactions of the cell types that comprise these classes, we acutely purified representative populations of neurons, astrocytes, oligodendrocyte precursor cells, newly formed oligodendrocytes, myelinating oligodendrocytes, microglia, endothelial cells, and pericytes from mouse cerebral cortex.

  • Vast Human-Specific Delay in Cortical Ontogenesis Associated With
    Supplementary information Extension of cortical synaptic development distinguishes humans from chimpanzees and macaques Supplementary Methods Sample collection We used prefrontal cortex (PFC) and cerebellar cortex (CBC) samples from postmortem brains of 33 human (aged 0-98 years), 14 chimpanzee (aged 0-44 years) and 44 rhesus macaque individuals (aged 0-28 years) (Table S1). Human samples were obtained from the NICHD Brain and Tissue Bank for Developmental Disorders at the University of Maryland, USA, the Netherlands Brain Bank, Amsterdam, Netherlands and the Chinese Brain Bank Center, Wuhan, China. Informed consent for use of human tissues for research was obtained in writing from all donors or their next of kin. All subjects were defined as normal by forensic pathologists at the corresponding brain bank. All subjects suffered sudden death with no prolonged agonal state. Chimpanzee samples were obtained from the Yerkes Primate Center, GA, USA, the Anthropological Institute & Museum of the University of Zürich-Irchel, Switzerland and the Biomedical Primate Research Centre, Netherlands (eight Western chimpanzees, one Central/Eastern and five of unknown origin). Rhesus macaque samples were obtained from the Suzhou Experimental Animal Center, China. All non-human primates used in this study suffered sudden deaths for reasons other than their participation in this study and without any relation to the tissue used. CBC dissections were made from the cerebellar cortex. PFC dissections were made from the frontal part of the superior frontal gyrus. All samples contained an approximately 2:1 grey matter to white matter volume ratio. RNA microarray hybridization RNA isolation, hybridization to microarrays, and data preprocessing were performed as described previously (Khaitovich et al.

Relevant mouse models are powerful for untangling this problem because such heterogeneity can be controlled. Inbred Chaos3 mice exhibit high levels of genomic instability leading to mammary tumors that have tumor gene expression profiles closely resembling mature human mammary luminal cell signatures. We genomically characterized mammary adenocarcinomas from these mice to identify cancer-causing genomic events that overlap common alterations in human breast cancer. Chaos3 tumors underwent recurrent copy number alterations (CNAs), particularly deletion of the RAS inhibitor Neurofibromin 1 (Nf1) in nearly all cases. These overlap with human CNAs including NF1, which is deleted or mutated in 27.7% of all breast carcinomas. Chaos3 mammary tumor cells exhibit RAS hyperactivation and increased sensitivity to RAS pathway inhibitors. These results indicate that spontaneous NF1 loss can drive breast cancer. This should be informative for treatment of the significant fraction of patients whose tumors bear NF1 mutations.
