It's also a nuclear protein interacts with CREB-binding protein and expressed in the developing brain. It helps regulate neuronal morphogenesis in calcuim-dependent manner. The N-terminal domain of SS18L1 is required for suppressing transactivation in the basal state, while the C-terminal domain is required for calcium-induced transactivation. It's part of the CREST-BRG1 complex, a multiprotein complex that regulates promoter activation by orchestrating a calcium-dependent release of a repressor complex and a recruitment of an activator complex. This complex also binds to the NR2B promoter, and activity-dependent induction of NR2B expression involves a release of HDAC1 and recruitment of CREBBP. The calculated molecular weight of CREST is about 43 kDa, but the modified of CREST protein is 55 kDa (PMID: 25888396). Storage: Storage Store at -20°C. Stable for one year after shipment. Storage Buffer: PBS with 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol pH 7.3. -
The Impact of Chromosomal Translocation Locus and Fusion Oncogene Coding Sequence in Synovial Sarcomagenesis

Here, we report a mouse sarcoma model expressing SS18-SSX1, complementing our prior model expressing SS18-SSX2. Exome sequencing identified no recurrent secondary mutations in tumors of either genotype. Most of the few mutations identified in single tumors were present in genes that were minimally or not expressed in any of the tumors. Chromosome 6, either entirely or around the fusion gene expression locus, demonstrated a copy number gain in a majority of tumors of both genotypes. Thus, by fusion oncogene coding sequence alone, SS18-SSX1 and SS18-SSX2 can each drive comparable synovial sarcomagenesis, independent from other genetic drivers. SS18-SSX1 and SS18-SSX2 tumor transcriptomes demonstrated very few consistent differences overall. In direct tumorigenesis comparisons, SS18-SSX2 was slightly more sarcomagenic than SS18-SSX1, but equivalent in its generation of biphasic histologic features. Meta-analysis of human synovial sarcoma patient series identified two tumor–gentoype–phenotype correlations that were not modeled by the mice, namely a scarcity of male hosts and biphasic histologic features among SS18-SSX2 tumors. -

Synovial Sarcoma: Recent Discoveries As a Roadmap to New Avenues for Therapy
Published OnlineFirst January 22, 2015; DOI: 10.1158/2159-8290.CD-14-1246 REVIEW Synovial Sarcoma: Recent Discoveries as a Roadmap to New Avenues for Therapy Torsten O. Nielsen 1 , Neal M. Poulin 1 , and Marc Ladanyi 2 ABSTRACT Oncogenesis in synovial sarcoma is driven by the chromosomal translocation t(X,18; p11,q11), which generates an in-frame fusion of the SWI/SNF subunit SS18 to the C-terminal repression domains of SSX1 or SSX2. Proteomic studies have identifi ed an integral role of SS18–SSX in the SWI/SNF complex, and provide new evidence for mistargeting of polycomb repression in synovial sarcoma. Two recent in vivo studies are highlighted, providing additional support for the importance of WNT signaling in synovial sarcoma: One used a conditional mouse model in which knock- out of β-catenin prevents tumor formation, and the other used a small-molecule inhibitor of β-catenin in xenograft models. Signifi cance: Synovial sarcoma appears to arise from still poorly characterized immature mesenchymal progenitor cells through the action of its primary oncogenic driver, the SS18–SSX fusion gene, which encodes a multifaceted disruptor of epigenetic control. The effects of SS18–SSX on polycomb-mediated gene repression and SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling have recently come into focus and may offer new insights into the basic function of these processes. A central role for deregulation of WNT–β-catenin sig- naling in synovial sarcoma has also been strengthened by recent in vivo studies. These new insights into the the biology of synovial sarcoma are guiding novel preclinical and clinical studies in this aggressive cancer. -
A Novel FISH Assay for SS18–SSX Fusion Type in Synovial Sarcoma

The t(X;18)(p11.2;q11.2) is the cytogenetic hallmark of synovial sarcoma and is present in more than 90% of the cases. It produces three types of fusion gene formed in part by SS18 from chromosome 18 and by SSX1, SSX2 or, rarely, SSX4 from the X chromosome. The SS18–SSX fusions do not seem to occur in other tumor types, and it has been shown that in synovial sarcoma a clear correlation exists between the type of fusion gene and histologic subtype and, more importantly, clinical outcome. Previous analyses regarding the type of fusion genes have been based on PCR amplification of the fusion transcript, requiring access to good- quality RNA. In order to obtain an alternative tool to diagnose and follow this malignancy, we developed a fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay that could distinguish between the two most common fusion genes, that is, SS18–SSX1 and SS18–SSX2. The specificity of the selected bacterial artificial chromosome clones used in the detection of these fusion genes, as well as the sensitivity of the analysis in metaphase and interphase cells, was examined in a series of 28 synovial sarcoma samples with known fusion gene status. -

Uversky 1,2,* 1 Department of Molecular Medicine, Morsani College of Medicine, University of South Florida, 12901 Bruce B. Downs Blvd. MDC07, Tampa, FL 33612, USA; [email protected] 2 Laboratory of New Methods in Biology, Institute for Biological Instrumentation of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Federal Research Center “Pushchino Scientific Center for Biological Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences”, Pushchino, 142290 Moscow Region, Russia * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-813-974-5816; Fax: +1-813-974-7357 Received: 20 September 2019; Accepted: 21 October 2019; Published: 23 October 2019 Abstract: The two-meter-long DNA is compressed into chromatin in the nucleus of every cell, which serves as a significant barrier to transcription. Therefore, for processes such as replication and transcription to occur, the highly compacted chromatin must be relaxed, and the processes required for chromatin reorganization for the aim of replication or transcription are controlled by ATP-dependent nucleosome remodelers. One of the most highly studied remodelers of this kind is the BRG1- or BRM-associated factor complex (BAF complex, also known as SWItch/sucrose non-fermentable (SWI/SNF) complex), which is crucial for the regulation of gene expression and differentiation in eukaryotes. Chromatin remodeling complex BAF is characterized by a highly polymorphic structure, containing from four to 17 subunits encoded by 29 genes. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the role of BAF complex in chromatin remodeling and also to use literature mining and a set of computational and bioinformatics tools to analyze structural properties, intrinsic disorder predisposition, and functionalities of its subunits, along with the description of the relations of different BAF complex subunits to the pathogenesis of various human diseases. -
Mouse Ss18l1 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Ss18l1 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Ss18l1 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Ss18l1 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_178750 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000039086 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 2. 11 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 11 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000041126). Exon 2 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Ss18l1 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-343C13 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 disruptions in this gene have central nervous system and coordination defects. They grow slowly and usually die before adulthood. Those that do survive are infertile. Exon 2 starts from about 5.8% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 2 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 1 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 9595 bp, and the size of intron 2 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 768 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~577 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

Generally, cancer arises in older adults, and results from multiple significant changes (mutations) accumulating in the genetic blueprint (DNA) of a person’s tissues. This blueprint is composed of a 4-letter alphabet. Together, the multiple significant changes in the blueprint then allow a cell to go “out of control”, becoming a cancer cell. The striking thing about MRT is that it has only a single spelling change, so that mutation must be very powerful to lead to such a lethal cancer. Using a model system that we developed, we show herein how this single mutation alters how the whole of the DNA is arranged, Citation: Kenny, C.; O’Meara, E.; Ula¸s,M.; Hokamp, K.; O’Sullivan, thereby having its profound and lethal effects.
