Abstract Purpose Exome and genome sequencing have proven to be effective tools for the diagnosis of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), but large fractions of NDDs cannot be attributed to currently detectable genetic variation. This is likely, at least in part, a result of the fact that many genetic variants are difficult or impossible to detect through typical short-read sequencing approaches.

  • Mouse Ppef1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
    https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Ppef1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Ppef1 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Ppef1 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_011147 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000062168 ) is located on Mouse chromosome X. 16 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 16 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000071204). 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: Homozygous null female and hemizygous null male mice are viable, fertile and display no overt abnormalities. Exon 2 starts from about 2.41% of the coding region. Exon 2~4 covers 18.41% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~10105 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

  • Identification of Conserved Genes Triggering Puberty in European Sea
    Blázquez et al. BMC Genomics (2017) 18:441 DOI 10.1186/s12864-017-3823-2 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Identification of conserved genes triggering puberty in European sea bass males (Dicentrarchus labrax) by microarray expression profiling Mercedes Blázquez1,2* , Paula Medina1,2,3, Berta Crespo1,4, Ana Gómez1 and Silvia Zanuy1* Abstract Background: Spermatogenesisisacomplexprocesscharacterized by the activation and/or repression of a number of genes in a spatio-temporal manner. Pubertal development in males starts with the onset of the first spermatogenesis and implies the division of primary spermatogonia and their subsequent entry into meiosis. This study is aimed at the characterization of genes involved in the onset of puberty in European sea bass, and constitutes the first transcriptomic approach focused on meiosis in this species. Results: European sea bass testes collected at the onset of puberty (first successful reproduction) were grouped in stage I (resting stage), and stage II (proliferative stage). Transition from stage I to stage II was marked by an increase of 11ketotestosterone (11KT), the main fish androgen, whereas the transcriptomic study resulted in 315 genes differentially expressed between the two stages. The onset of puberty induced 1) an up-regulation of genes involved in cell proliferation, cell cycle and meiosis progression, 2) changes in genes related with reproduction and growth, and 3) a down-regulation of genes included in the retinoic acid (RA) signalling pathway. The analysis of GO-terms and biological pathways showed that cell cycle, cell division, cellular metabolic processes, and reproduction were affected, consistent with the early events that occur during the onset of puberty.

  • Identification of Selection Signatures Involved In
    Almeida et al. BMC Genomics (2019) 20:449 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-019-5811-1 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Identification of selection signatures involved in performance traits in a paternal broiler line Octávio Augusto Costa Almeida1, Gabriel Costa Monteiro Moreira1, Fernanda Marcondes Rezende2, Clarissa Boschiero3, Jane de Oliveira Peixoto4, Adriana Mercia Guaratini Ibelli4, Mônica Corrêa Ledur4, Francisco José de Novais1 and Luiz Lehmann Coutinho1* Abstract Background: Natural and artificial selection leads to changes in certain regions of the genome resulting in selection signatures that can reveal genes associated with the selected traits. Selection signatures may be identified using different methodologies, of which some are based on detecting contiguous sequences of homozygous identical-by- descent haplotypes, called runs of homozygosity (ROH), or estimating fixation index (FST) of genomic windows that indicates genetic differentiation. This study aimed to identify selection signatures in a paternal broiler TT line at generations 7th and 16th of selection and to investigate the genes annotated in these regions as well as the biological pathways involved. For such purpose, ROH and FST-based analysis were performed using whole genome sequence of twenty-eight chickens from two different generations. Results: ROH analysis identified homozygous regions of short and moderate size. Analysis of ROH patterns revealed regions commonly shared among animals and changes in ROH abundance and size between the two generations. Results also suggest that whole genome sequencing (WGS) outperforms SNPchip data avoiding overestimation of ROH size and underestimation of ROH number; however, sequencing costs can limited the number of animals analyzed. FST- based analysis revealed genetic differentiation in several genomic windows.

Zhangb, Gregory Dussora, Theodore J. Pricea,* from https://journals.lww.com/pain Abstract Molecular neurobiological insight into human nervous tissues is needed to generate next-generation therapeutics for neurological disorders such as chronic pain. We obtained human dorsal root ganglia (hDRG) samples from organ donors and performed RNA- sequencing (RNA-seq) to study the hDRG transcriptional landscape, systematically comparing it with publicly available data from by BhDMf5ePHKav1zEoum1tQfN4a+kJLhEZgbsIHo4XMi0hCywCX1AWnYQp/IlQrHD3mH5nK33R3Qh4f27oe7zFUUf7ZAUK5aCsyqAeT54jiDxP7ZjumT3TrA== a variety of human and orthologous mouse tissues, including mouse DRG (mDRG). We characterized the hDRG transcriptional profile in terms of tissue-restricted gene coexpression patterns and putative transcriptional regulators, and formulated an information-theoretic framework to quantify DRG enrichment. Relevant gene families and pathways were also analyzed, including transcription factors, G-protein-coupled receptors, and ion channels. Our analyses reveal an hDRG-enriched protein-coding gene set (;140), some of which have not been described in the context of DRG or pain signaling. Most of these show conserved enrichment in mDRG and were mined for known drug–gene product interactions. Conserved enrichment of the vast majority of transcription factors suggests that the mDRG is a faithful model system for studying hDRG, because of evolutionarily conserved regulatory programs.

Chen2, Levi Waldron 6 & Benjamin Haibe- Kains2,3,7,8,9 A wealth of transcriptomic and clinical data on solid tumours are under-utilized due to unharmonized data storage and format. We have developed the MetaGxData package compendium, which includes manually-curated and standardized clinical, pathological, survival, and treatment metadata across breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer data. MetaGxData is the largest compendium of curated transcriptomic data for these cancer types to date, spanning 86 datasets and encompassing 15,249 samples. Open access to standardized metadata across cancer types promotes use of their transcriptomic and clinical data in a variety of cross-tumour analyses, including identifcation of common biomarkers, and assessing the validity of prognostic signatures. Here, we demonstrate that MetaGxData is a fexible framework that facilitates meta-analyses by using it to identify common prognostic genes in ovarian and breast cancer. Furthermore, we use the data compendium to create the frst gene signature that is prognostic in a meta-analysis across 3 cancer types. These fndings demonstrate the potential of MetaGxData to serve as an important resource in oncology research, and provide a foundation for future development of cancer-specifc compendia. Ovarian, breast and pancreatic cancers are among the leading causes of cancer deaths among women, and recent studies have identifed biological and molecular commonalities between them1–4.

Mias [email protected] 2 ABSTRACT 3 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has been categorized by the Centers for Disease Control and 4 Prevention (CDC) as the 6th leading cause of death in the United States. AD is a significant 5 health-care burden because of its increased occurrence (specifically in the elderly population) 6 and the lack of effective treatments and preventive methods. With an increase in life expectancy, 7 the CDC expects AD cases to rise to 15 million by 2060. Aging has been previously associated 8 with susceptibility to AD, and there are ongoing efforts to effectively differentiate between normal 9 and AD age-related brain degeneration and memory loss. AD targets neuronal function and can 10 cause neuronal loss due to the buildup of amyloid-beta plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary 11 tangles. 12 Our study aims to identify temporal changes within gene expression profiles of healthy controls 13 and AD subjects.
