There is no data available for SNX3P1Y expression. Among other members of the nexins, only SNX3 is There are RNAseq data results showing SNX3P1X indispensable for recognition and recycling of WLS is expressed in blood, brain, cortex, tibial nerve, (Wntless) in Drosophila (P.

  • Mouse Vps29 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
    https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Vps29 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Vps29 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Vps29 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_019780 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000029462 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 5. 4 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 4 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000155671). Exon 2~3 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Vps29 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-97B19 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: Exon 2 starts from about 0.73% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 2~3 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 1 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 5536 bp, and the size of intron 3 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 533 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~2760 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

  • Retromer Deficiency in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
    Retromer deficiency in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis Eduardo J Pérez-Torres Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2020 © 2020 Eduardo J Pérez-Torres All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT RETROMER DEFICIENCY IN AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS Eduardo J Pérez-Torres The retromer is a protein complex whose function is to mediate the recycling of proteins from the endosome to either the plasma membrane or the trans-Golgi network. A deficit in retromer function has been associated with multiple neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). In both AD and PD, deficiencies have been found in retromer expression both in patient tissues and in animal models of disease. Furthermore, mutations in the retromer and in retromer-associated genes have been strongly linked with both diseases. Despite ample evidence of the link between the retromer and neurodegeneration, little is known about the retromer in the context of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), another common neurodegenerative disorder. ALS is an adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder of the upper and lower motor neurons (MNs) characterized by muscle wasting and weakness leading to death within 3-5 years after diagnosis. To date, the most commonly used model of ALS is a transgenic (Tg) mouse that overexpresses an ALS-causing G93A mutation in the human superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene. In this study, I first establish a link between the retromer and ALS by showing that cells from ALS patients as well as tissues and cells from SOD1G93A-Tg mice express lower protein levels of the retromer core components—vacuolar protein sorting 35 (Vps35), Vps26a, and Vps29.

  • ESRP2 Controls an Adult Splicing Programme in Hepatocytes to Support Postnatal Liver Maturation
    ARTICLE Received 3 May 2015 | Accepted 25 Sep 2015 | Published 4 Nov 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms9768 OPEN ESRP2 controls an adult splicing programme in hepatocytes to support postnatal liver maturation Amruta Bhate1,*, Darren J. Parker1,*, Thomas W. Bebee2, Jaegyoon Ahn3, Waqar Arif1, Edrees H. Rashan1, Sandip Chorghade1, Anthony Chau1, Jae-Hyung Lee2, Sayeepriyadarshini Anakk4, Russ P. Carstens2, Xinshu Xiao3 & Auinash Kalsotra1,5 Although major genetic networks controlling early liver specification and morphogenesis are known, the mechanisms responsible for postnatal hepatic maturation are poorly understood. Here we employ global analyses of the mouse liver transcriptome to demonstrate that postnatal remodelling of the liver is accompanied by large-scale transcriptional and post- transcriptional transitions that are cell-type-specific and temporally coordinated. Combining detailed expression analyses with gain- and loss-of-function studies, we identify epithelial splicing regulatory protein 2 (ESRP2) as a conserved regulatory factor that controls the neonatal-to-adult switch of B20% of splice isoforms in mouse and human hepatocytes. The normal shift in splicing coincides tightly with dramatic postnatal induction of ESRP2 in hepatocytes. We further demonstrate that forced expression of ESRP2 in immature mouse and human hepatocytes is sufficient to drive a reciprocal shift in splicing and causes various physiological abnormalities. These findings define a direct role for ESRP2 in the generation of conserved repertoires of adult splice isoforms that facilitate terminal differentiation and maturation of hepatocytes. 1 Department of Biochemistry and Medical Biochemistry, University of Illinois, Champaign, Illinois 61801, USA. 2 Departments of Medicine and Genetics, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104, USA.
