Mouse Carf Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Carf Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Carf knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Carf gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_139150 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000026017 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 1. 15 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TAA stop codon in exon 15 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000187978). 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: Mice homozygous for a null allele have aberrant learning and memory. Exon 2 starts from the coding region. Exon 2~4 covers 17.61% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~4083 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

Tandem repeats are found in the dot plot matrix. The gRNA site is selected outside of these tandem repeats. Overview of the Dot Plot (down) Window size: 15 bp Forward Reverse Complement Sequence 12 Note: The 1008 bp section downstream of Exon 4 is aligned with itself to determine if there are tandem repeats. No significant tandem repeat is found in the dot plot matrix. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.

Cowen4,7, Sven Bergmann 1,2,19,21* and Daniel Marbach 1,2,5,21* Many bioinformatics methods have been proposed for reducing the complexity of large gene or protein networks into relevant subnetworks or modules. Yet, how such methods compare to each other in terms of their ability to identify disease-relevant modules in different types of network remains poorly understood. We launched the ‘Disease Module Identification DREAM Challenge’, an open competition to comprehensively assess module identification methods across diverse protein–protein interaction, signaling, gene co-expression, homology and cancer-gene networks. Predicted network modules were tested for association with complex traits and diseases using a unique collection of 180 genome-wide association studies. Our robust assessment of 75 module identification methods reveals top-performing algorithms, which recover complementary trait- associated modules. We find that most of these modules correspond to core disease-relevant pathways, which often com- prise therapeutic targets. This community challenge establishes biologically interpretable benchmarks, tools and guidelines for molecular network analysis to study human disease biology. omplex diseases involve many genes and molecules that inter- assessed on in silico generated benchmark graphs11.

  • Mouse Carf Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
    https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Carf Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Carf conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Carf gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_139150 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000026017 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 1. 15 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TAA stop codon in exon 15 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000187978). Exon 4 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Carf gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-85G22 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 null allele have aberrant learning and memory. Exon 4 starts from about 14.71% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 4 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 3 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 1021 bp, and the size of intron 4 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 15401 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~561 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

Coexpression Networks Based on Natural Variation in Human Gene Expression at Baseline and Under Stress Abstract Genes interact in networks to orchestrate cellular processes. Here, we used coexpression networks based on natural variation in gene expression to study the functions and interactions of human genes. We asked how these networks change in response to stress. First, we studied human coexpression networks at baseline. We constructed networks by identifying correlations in expression levels of 8.9 million gene pairs in immortalized B cells from 295 individuals comprising three independent samples. The resulting networks allowed us to infer interactions between biological processes. We used the network to predict the functions of poorly-characterized human genes, and provided some experimental support. Examining genes implicated in disease, we found that IFIH1, a diabetes susceptibility gene, interacts with YES1, which affects glucose transport. Genes predisposing to the same diseases are clustered non-randomly in the network, suggesting that the network may be used to identify candidate genes that influence disease susceptibility.
