Mouse Eif4e3 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Eif4e3 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Eif4e3 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Eif4e3 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_025829 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000093661 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 6. 7 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 7 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000032151). 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: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit decreased bone trabecula number. Exon 3 starts from about 32.05% of the coding region. Exon 3~5 covers 35.91% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~4602 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

  • Molecular Dynamics and Evolutionary Aspects of the Transition from the Fully Grown Oocyte to Embryo

To elucidate this critical period of development, an extensive survey of the FGO transcriptome was performed by analyzing 19,000 expressed sequence tags of the Mus musculus FGO cDNA library. Expression of 5400 genes and transposable elements is reported. For a majority of genes expressed in mouse FGOs, homologs transcribed in eggs of Xenopus laevis or Ciona intestinalis were found, pinpointing evolutionary conservation of most regulatory cascades underlying the OET in chordates. A large proportion of identified genes belongs to several gene families with oocyte-restricted expression, a likely result of lineage-specific genomic duplications. Gene loss by mutation and expression in female germline of retrotransposed genes specific to M. musculus is documented. These findings indicate rapid diversification of genes involved in female reproduction. Comparison of the FGO and two-cell embryo transcriptomes demarcated the processes important for oogenesis from those involved in OET and identified novel motifs in maternal mRNAs associated with transcript stability.

The translational machinery can be recruited by malignant cells to synthesize proteins required to promote their survival, even in times of high physiological and pathological stress. This phenomenon has been described in several cancers including in gliomas. Abnormal regulation of translation has encouraged the development of new therapeutics targeting the protein synthesis pathway. This approach could be meaningful for glioma given the fact that the median survival following diagnosis of the highest grade of glioma remains short despite current therapy. The identification of new targets for the development of novel therapeutics is therefore needed in order to improve this devastating overall survival rate. This review discusses current literature on translation in gliomas with a focus on the initiation step covering both the cap-dependent and cap-independent modes of initiation.

  • Phosphorylation and Signal Transduction Pathways in Translational Control
    Downloaded from http://cshperspectives.cshlp.org/ on September 25, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Phosphorylation and Signal Transduction Pathways in Translational Control Christopher G. Proud Nutrition & Metabolism, South Australian Health & Medical Research Institute, North Terrace, Adelaide SA5000, Australia; and School of Biological Sciences, University of Adelaide, Adelaide SA5000, Australia Correspondence: [email protected] Protein synthesis, including the translation of specific messenger RNAs (mRNAs), is regulated by extracellular stimuli such as hormones and by the levels of certain nutrients within cells. This control involves several well-understood signaling pathways and protein kinases, which regulate the phosphorylation of proteins that control the translational machinery. These path- ways include the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), its downstream effectors, and the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase (extracellular ligand-regulated kinase [ERK]) signaling pathway. This review describes the regulatory mechanisms that control translation initiation and elongation factors, in particular the effects of phosphoryla- tion on their interactions or activities. It also discusses current knowledge concerning the impact of these control systems on the translation of specific mRNAs or subsets of mRNAs, both in physiological processes and in diseases such as cancer. he control of protein synthesis plays key roles Accordingly, sophisticated control mecha- Tin cell growth and proliferation and in nisms exist to allow extracellular stimuli (e.g., many other processes, via shaping the cellular hormones, growth factors), intracellular metab- proteome. The importance of translational con- olites (essential amino acids, nucleotides) and trol is underscored, for example, by the lack of cues, such as energy status, to regulate protein concordance between the transcriptome and the synthesis.

  • Differential Gene Expression in a Tripartite Interaction: Drosophila, Spiroplasma and Parasitic Wasps
    Differential gene expression in a tripartite interaction: Drosophila, Spiroplasma and parasitic wasps Victor Manuel Higareda Alvear1, Mariana Mateos2, Diego Cortez1, Cecilia Tamborindeguy3 and Esperanza Martinez-Romero1 1 Centro de Ciencias Genómicas, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Cuernavaca, Morelos, México 2 Department of Ecology and Conservation Biology, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX, USA 3 Department of Entomology, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX, USA ABSTRACT Background: Several facultative bacterial symbionts of insects protect their hosts against natural enemies. Spiroplasma poulsonii strain sMel (hereafter Spiroplasma), a male-killing heritable symbiont of Drosophila melanogaster, confers protection against some species of parasitic wasps. Several lines of evidence suggest that Spiroplasma-encoded ribosome inactivating proteins (RIPs) are involved in the protection mechanism, but the potential contribution of the fly-encoded functions (e.g., immune response), has not been deeply explored. Methods: Here we used RNA-seq to evaluate the response of D. melanogaster to infection by Spiroplasma and parasitism by the Spiroplasma-susceptible wasp Leptopilina heterotoma, and the Spiroplasma-resistant wasp Ganaspis sp. In addition, we used quantitative (q)PCR to evaluate the transcript levels of the Spiroplasma- encoded Ribosomal inactivation protein (RIP) genes. Results: In the absence of Spiroplasma infection, we found evidence of Drosophila immune activation by Ganaspis sp., but not by L. heterotoma, which in turn negatively influenced functions associated with male gonad development. Submitted 24 November 2020 As expected for a symbiont that kills males, we detected extensive downregulation in Accepted 6 February 2021 the Spiroplasma-infected treatments of genes known to have male-biased expression. Published 4 March 2021 We detected very few genes whose expression patterns appeared to be influenced by Corresponding author the Spiroplasma-L.

Dysregulation of the intricate orchestration of the factors responsible for translation initiation has been shown to be a contributing element in cancer progression, neurological disorders, and many more diseases. Throughout this body of work, we aim to better understand specialized translational regulation which can contribute to transcript selection shifts during times of stress and disease. We not only strive to understand novel non-canonical roles of these translation initiation factors, but also appreciate the unique mechanisms of regulation implemented through the diversification of these factors. We highlight an example of these non-canonical roles through the investigation of eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) governed repression of FTL translation.

Four of them (eIF4E-1,2, eIF4E-3, eIF4E-4 and eIF4E-5) share exon/intron structure in their carboxy-terminal part and form a cluster in the genome. All eIF4E isoforms bind to the cap (m7GpppN) structure. All of them, except eIF4E-6 and eIF4E-8 were able to interact with Drosophila eIF4G or eIF4E-binding protein (4E-BP). eIF4E-1, eIF4E-2, eIF4E-3, eIF4E-4 and eIF4E-7 rescued a yeast eIF4E- deficient mutant in vivo.
