Mouse Rragc Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) http://beta.alphaknockout.cyagen.net Mouse Rragc Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Rragc knockout mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Rragc gene ( NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_017475.2 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000028646 ) is located on mouse chromosome 4. 7 exons are identified , with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAG stop codon in exon 7 (Transcript Rragc- 201: ENSMUST00000030399). Exon 3~5 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 3 starts from about 36.77% of the coding region. Exon 3~5 covers 38.36% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~3939 bp. This strategy is designed based on genetic information in existing databases. Due to the complexity of biological processes, all risk of RNA splicing and protein translation can not be predicted at existing technological level. Since the null allele lead to embronic lethalty, we highly recommond you thinking of generation a conditional knockout model. You can get the KO type by crossing with a deleter mice.

  • CD56+ T-Cells in Relation to Cytomegalovirus in Healthy Subjects and Kidney Transplant Patients
    CD56+ T-cells in Relation to Cytomegalovirus in Healthy Subjects and Kidney Transplant Patients Institute of Infection and Global Health Department of Clinical Infection, Microbiology and Immunology Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Mazen Mohammed Almehmadi December 2014 - 1 - Abstract Human T cells expressing CD56 are capable of tumour cell lysis following activation with interleukin-2 but their role in viral immunity has been less well studied. The work described in this thesis aimed to investigate CD56+ T-cells in relation to cytomegalovirus infection in healthy subjects and kidney transplant patients (KTPs). Proportions of CD56+ T cells were found to be highly significantly increased in healthy cytomegalovirus-seropositive (CMV+) compared to cytomegalovirus-seronegative (CMV-) subjects (8.38% ± 0.33 versus 3.29%± 0.33; P < 0.0001). In donor CMV-/recipient CMV- (D-/R-)- KTPs levels of CD56+ T cells were 1.9% ±0.35 versus 5.42% ±1.01 in D+/R- patients and 5.11% ±0.69 in R+ patients (P 0.0247 and < 0.0001 respectively). CD56+ T cells in both healthy CMV+ subjects and KTPs expressed markers of effector memory- RA T-cells (TEMRA) while in healthy CMV- subjects and D-/R- KTPs the phenotype was predominantly that of naïve T-cells. Other surface markers, CD8, CD4, CD58, CD57, CD94 and NKG2C were expressed by a significantly higher proportion of CD56+ T-cells in healthy CMV+ than CMV- subjects. Functional studies showed levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IFN-γ and TNF-α, as well as granzyme B and CD107a were significantly higher in CD56+ T-cells from CMV+ than CMV- subjects following stimulation with CMV antigens.

Recently, chemical inhibition of EHMT2 was shown to are independent of changes in DNA sequences (1). This mode induce various physiological outcomes, including endoplasmic of gene regulation can be achieved by means of histone and reticulum stress-associated genes transcription in cancer cells. DNA modifications, such as methylation and acetylation (1). To identify genes that are transcriptionally repressed by EHMT2 Among these, methylation at lysine residues 4 (H3K4) and 36 during apoptosis, and cell stress responses, we screened genes (H3K36) of histone H3 are hallmarks of transcriptional acti- that are upregulated by BIX-01294, a chemical inhibitor of vation, whereas methylation of histone H3 residues at lysines EHMT2. RNA sequencing analyses revealed 77 genes that were 9 (H3K9) and 27 (H3K27) leads to repression (2). Methylation upregulated by BIX-01294 in all four hepatic cell carcinoma of histones is accomplished by histone methyltransferases (HMTs) (HCC) cell lines.

  • Effects of Rapamycin on Social Interaction Deficits and Gene

Molecular Brain (2019) 12:3 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13041-018-0423-2 RESEARCH Open Access Effects of rapamycin on social interaction deficits and gene expression in mice exposed to valproic acid in utero Hiroko Kotajima-Murakami1,2, Toshiyuki Kobayashi3, Hirofumi Kashii1,4, Atsushi Sato1,5, Yoko Hagino1, Miho Tanaka1,6, Yasumasa Nishito7, Yukio Takamatsu7, Shigeo Uchino1,2 and Kazutaka Ikeda1* Abstract The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway plays a crucial role in cell metabolism, growth, and proliferation. The overactivation of mTOR has been implicated in the pathogenesis of syndromic autism spectrum disorder (ASD), such as tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Treatment with the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin improved social interaction deficits in mouse models of TSC. Prenatal exposure to valproic acid (VPA) increases the incidence of ASD. Rodent pups that are exposed to VPA in utero have been used as an animal model of ASD. Activation of the mTOR signaling pathway was recently observed in rodents that were exposed to VPA in utero, and rapamycin ameliorated social interaction deficits. The present study investigated the effect of rapamycin on social interaction deficits in both adolescence and adulthood, and gene expressions in mice that were exposed to VPA in utero. We subcutaneously injected 600 mg/kg VPA in pregnant mice on gestational day 12.5 and used the pups as a model of ASD. The pups were intraperitoneally injected with rapamycin or an equal volume of vehicle once daily for 2 consecutive days. The social interaction test was conducted in the offspring after the last rapamycin administration at 5–6 weeks of ages (adolescence) or 10–11 weeks of age (adulthood).

It seems plausible that rates of implan- tation would improve if we had a better understanding of molecular factors affecting embryo competence. Currently, the process of selecting an embryo for uterine transfer uses an ad hoc combination of morphological criteria, the kinetics of development, and genetic testing for aneuploidy. However, no single criterion can ensure selection of a viable embryo. In contrast, RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of embryos could yield high-dimensional data, which may provide additional in- sight and illuminate the discrepancies among current selection criteria. Recent advances enabling the production of RNA- seq libraries from single cells have facilitated the application of this technique to the study of transcriptional events in early human development.

Malek1 Abstract Purpose: This study was performed to further our understand- Mutations in RRAGC distinctly clustered on one protein surface ing of the biological and genetic basis of follicular lymphoma and area surrounding the GTP/GDP–binding sites. Mutated RRAGC to identify potential novel therapy targets. proteins demonstrated increased binding to RPTOR (raptor) and Experimental Design: We analyzed previously generated substantially decreased interactions with the product of the tumor whole exome sequencing data of 23 follicular lymphoma cases suppressor gene FLCN (folliculin). In stable retrovirally trans- and one transformed follicular lymphoma case and expanded fected 293T cells, cultured in the presence or absence of leucine, findings to a combined total of 125 follicular lymphoma/3 multiple RRAGC mutations demonstrated elevated MTOR acti- transformed follicular lymphoma. We modeled the three- vation as evidenced by increased RPS6KB/S6-kinase phosphory- dimensional location of RRAGC-associated hotspot muta- lation. Similar activation phenotypes were uncovered in yeast tions. We performed functional studies on novel RRAGC engineered to express mutations in

How 2 complexity is generated, however, is uncertain. Since C.elegans and humans have 3 approximately the same number of genes, the explanation will depend on how genes are 4 used, rather than their absolute number.
