Mouse Uevld Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Uevld Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Uevld knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Uevld gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_001040695 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000043262 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 7. 12 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TGA stop codon in exon 12 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000094398). Exon 2~5 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 about 3.04% of the coding region. Exon 2~5 covers 31.92% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~7790 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

To better understand the mechanisms of innate immune response against C. albicans, we analyzed the gene expression profile of THP-1 cells stimulated with heat-killed C. albicans. Methods: THP-1 cells were stimulated with heat-killed C. albicans for 9 hours at a ratio of 1:1, and gene expression profile of the cells was analyzed using Whole Human Genome Oligo Microarray. Differentially expressed genes were defined as change folds more than 2 and with statistical significance.

Identication of biomarkers can be very useful for early diagnosis of cardiomyopathy, interruption of the disease procession to heart failure, and decrement of the mortality. Methods Clinical cases of cardiomyopathy were screened out of independently investigations from the genomic database. Exploration of its whole transcription disorder pattern by WGCNA (Weighted Gene Co- expression Network Analysis) to discover the signature genes for different subtypes of cardiomyopathy. The hub genes and key pathways, which are correlated to cardiomyopathy traits, were identied through co-expression and protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks enrichment analysis. Discovered hub genes were blast through the Cardiovascular Disease Portal to verify functions related to human cardiomyopathies. Results Three common axes of signature genes were discovered for ve subtypes of cardiomyopathy: 1) Four genes (MDM4, CFLAR, RPS6KB1, PKD1L2) were common for ischemic and ischemic cardiomyopathy subgroups; 2) Subtypes of cardiomyopathy (ischemic, post.

  • Quantifying the Mechanisms of Domain Gain in Animal Proteins Marija Buljan*, Adam Frankish, Alex Bateman
    Buljan et al. Genome Biology 2010, 11:R74 http://genomebiology.com/2010/11/7/R74 RESEARCH Open Access Quantifying the mechanisms of domain gain in animal proteins Marija Buljan*, Adam Frankish, Alex Bateman Abstract Background: Protein domains are protein regions that are shared among different proteins and are frequently functionally and structurally independent from the rest of the protein. Novel domain combinations have a major role in evolutionary innovation. However, the relative contributions of the different molecular mechanisms that underlie domain gains in animals are still unknown. By using animal gene phylogenies we were able to identify a set of high confidence domain gain events and by looking at their coding DNA investigate the causative mechanisms. Results: Here we show that the major mechanism for gains of new domains in metazoan proteins is likely to be gene fusion through joining of exons from adjacent genes, possibly mediated by non-allelic homologous recombination. Retroposition and insertion of exons into ancestral introns through intronic recombination are, in contrast to previous expectations, only minor contributors to domain gains and have accounted for less than 1% and 10% of high confidence domain gain events, respectively. Additionally, exonization of previously non-coding regions appears to be an important mechanism for addition of disordered segments to proteins. We observe that gene duplication has preceded domain gain in at least 80% of the gain events. Conclusions: The interplay of gene duplication and domain gain demonstrates an important mechanism for fast neofunctionalization of genes. Background molecular mechanisms that underlie gains of new Protein domains are fundamental and largely indepen- domains in animals has been more challenging [3].

  • Network-Based Analysis of Key Regulatory Genes Implicated in Type
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Network‑based analysis of key regulatory genes implicated in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Recurrent Miscarriages in Turner Syndrome Anam Farooqui1, Alaa Alhazmi2, Shaful Haque3, Naaila Tamkeen4, Mahboubeh Mehmankhah1, Safa Tazyeen1, Sher Ali5 & Romana Ishrat1* The information on the genotype–phenotype relationship in Turner Syndrome (TS) is inadequate because very few specifc candidate genes are linked to its clinical features. We used the microarray data of TS to identify the key regulatory genes implicated with TS through a network approach. The causative factors of two common co‑morbidities, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and Recurrent Miscarriages (RM), in the Turner population, are expected to be diferent from that of the general population. Through microarray analysis, we identifed nine signature genes of T2DM and three signature genes of RM in TS. The power‑law distribution analysis showed that the TS network carries scale‑free hierarchical fractal attributes. Through local‑community‑paradigm (LCP) estimation we fnd that a strong LCP is also maintained which means that networks are dynamic and heterogeneous. We identifed nine key regulators which serve as the backbone of the TS network. Furthermore, we recognized eight interologs functional in seven diferent organisms from lower to higher levels. Overall, these results ofer few key regulators and essential genes that we envisage have potential as therapeutic targets for the TS in the future and the animal models studied here may prove useful in the validation of such targets. Te medical systems and scientists throughout the world are under an unprecedented challenge to meet the medical needs of much of the world’s population that are sufering from chromosomal anomalies.

  • Somatic Genomic Changes in the Formation of Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
    10.2478/AMB-2020-0036 SOMATIC GENOMIC CHANGES IN THE FORMATION OF DIFFERENTIATED THYROID CARCINOMA K. Vidinov1, R. Dodova2, I. Dimitrova1, A. Mitkova2, A. Shinkov1, R. Kaneva2, R. Kovacheva1 1Department of Endocrinology, Medical Faculty, Medical University – Sofia, Bulgaria 2Molecular Medicine Center, Department of Medical Chemistry and Biochemistry, Medical Faculty, Medical University – Sofia, Bulgaria Abstract. Globally, the diffuse goiter affects more than 10% of the population and in some regions is endemic. Thyroid nodules are found in approximately 5% of the population us- ing the oldest method for thyroid examination – palpation. When performing ultrasound screening, this percentage increases significantly and reaches between 20 and 75% of the total population. Thyroid carcinoma is a rare malignancy and accounts for up to 1% of all malignant tumors. It is the most common endocrine cancer and is clinically manifested as a thyroid nodule. Somatic mutations play an important role in its development. Differentia- tion of benign and malignant thyroid nodules is of great importance due to the different therapeutic approach. Therefore, new diagnostic tools are sought to help distinguish the two. Despite the progress in our knowledge of carcinogenesis in recent years, a number of key issues still remain unanswered. The establishment of new rare somatic mutations can improve pre-surgical diagnosis and optimize post-operative strategies for the treatment of thyroid carcinoma. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) allows for extensive mutation and genome rearrangements tracking. The results obtained with NGS provide the basis for the development of new approach for systematic genetic screening, at prevention, early diag- nosis, accurate prognosis, and targeted therapy of this disorder.

ABSTRACT 138 papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) samples were assessed for somatic mutation profile and fusion genes by targeted resequencing using a cancer panel (ThyGenCapTM) targeting 244 cancer-related genes and 20 potential fusion genes. At least one genetic alteration (including mutations and fusion genes) was observed in 118/138 (85.5%) samples. The most frequently mutated gene was BRAF V600E (57.2%). Moreover, we identified 11 fusion genes including eight previously reported ones and three novel fusion genes, UEVLD-RET, OSBPL9-BRAF, and SQSTM1-NTRK3.
