Mouse Vwa2 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Vwa2 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Vwa2 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Vwa2 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_172840 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000025082 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 19. 14 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TAA stop codon in exon 14 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000026068). Exon 2~4 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: Exon 2 starts from the coding region. Exon 2~4 covers 11.0% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~5887 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

ABSTRACT Tumour angiogenesis is a vital process in the pathology of tumour development and metastasis. Targeting markers of tumour endothelium provide a means of targeted destruction of a tumours oxygen and nutrient supply via destruction of tumour vasculature, which in turn ultimately leads to beneficial consequences to patients. Although current anti -angiogenic and vascular targeting strategies help patients, more potently in combination with chemo therapy, there is still a need for more tumour endothelial marker discoveries as current treatments have cardiovascular and other side effects. For the first time, the analyses of in-vivo biotinylation of an embryonic system is performed to obtain putative vascular targets. Also for the first time, deep sequencing is applied to freshly isolated tumour and normal endothelial cells from lung, colon and bladder tissues for the identification of pan-vascular-targets. Integration of the proteomic, deep sequencing, public cDNA libraries and microarrays, delivers 5,892 putative vascular targets to the science community.

  • In-Depth Analysis of the Plasma Proteome in ME/CFS Exposes Disrupted Ephrin-Eph and Immune System Signaling
    proteomes Article In-Depth Analysis of the Plasma Proteome in ME/CFS Exposes Disrupted Ephrin-Eph and Immune System Signaling Arnaud Germain , Susan M. Levine and Maureen R. Hanson * Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA; [email protected] (A.G.); [email protected] (S.M.L.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-607-254-4833 Abstract: Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a disabling disease with worldwide prevalence and limited therapies exclusively aimed at treating symptoms. To gain insights into the molecular disruptions in ME/CFS, we utilized an aptamer-based technology that quantified 4790 unique human proteins, allowing us to obtain the largest proteomics dataset yet available for this disease, detecting highly abundant proteins as well as rare proteins over a nine- log dynamic range. We report a pilot study of 20 ME/CFS patients and 20 controls, all females. Significant differences in the levels of 19 proteins between cohorts implicate pathways related to the extracellular matrix, the immune system and cell–cell communication. Outputs of pathway and cluster analyses robustly highlight the ephrin pathway, which is involved in cell–cell signaling and regulation of an expansive variety of biological processes, including axon guidance, angiogenesis, epithelial cell migration, and immune response. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analyses distinguish the plasma proteomes of ME/CFS patients from controls with a high degree of accuracy (Area Under the Curve (AUC) > 0.85), and even higher when using protein ratios (AUC up to 0.95), that include some protein pairs with established biological relevance.

Identification of novel telogen markers underscores that telogen is far from a quiescent hair cycle phase Mikhail Geyfman1,*, William Gordon1,2,*, Ralf Paus3, and Bogi Andersen1,2 1Departments of Medicine and Biological Chemistry, University of California, Irvine 2Center for Complex Biological Systems, University of California, Irvine 3Department of Dermatology, University of Lübeck, Lübeck, Germany & School of Translational Medicine, University of Manchester, Manchester, UK To the Editor In contrast to the dynamic and striking changes in hair follicle (HF) morphology during the anagen and catagen phases of the hair cycle, the telogen follicle appears static. However, it has been argued that the quiescent appearance of telogen HFs is deceptive (Davis 1962, Stenn, Paus 2001, Higgins, Westgate 2009). For example, the expression of some genes clearly peaks during telogen (Greco, Chen et al. 2009). Also, functionally distinct sub- phases of telogen have been identified (“competent” versus “refractory telogen”) based on the ability to initiate anagen after plucking (Plikus, Mayer et al. 2008). To gain further insights into the biological activities of telogen and to further probe the concept that telogen represents an important hair cycle-regulatory phase, we profiled skin mRNA expression patterns in mid (P54) and late (P59) second telogen in C57BL6 male mice with highly synchronized HF cycling. This data was analyzed in combination with previously published hair cycle gene expression profiling data that included an early telogen sample (P44) (Lin, Kumar et al.

  • Systematic Detection of Brain Protein-Coding Genes Under Positive Selection During Primate Evolution and Their Roles in Cognition

Corresponding author: Guillaume Dumas Human Genetics and Cognitive Functions Institut Pasteur 75015 Paris, France Phone: +33 6 28 25 56 65 [email protected] Dumas, Malesys, and Bourgeron 1 of 40 Downloaded from genome.cshlp.org on October 7, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Abstract The human brain differs from that of other primates, but the genetic basis of these differences remains unclear. We investigated the evolutionary pressures acting on almost all human protein-coding genes (N=11,667; 1:1 orthologs in primates) based on their divergence from those of early hominins, such as Neanderthals, and non-human primates. We confirm that genes encoding brain-related proteins are among the most strongly conserved protein-coding genes in the human genome. Combining our evolutionary pressure metrics for the protein- coding genome with recent datasets, we found that this conservation applied to genes functionally associated with the synapse and expressed in brain structures such as the prefrontal cortex and the cerebellum. Conversely, several genes presenting signatures commonly associated with positive selection appear as causing brain diseases or conditions, such as micro/macrocephaly, Joubert syndrome, dyslexia, and autism.
