Mouse Snx13 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Snx13 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Snx13 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Snx13 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_001014973 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000020590 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 12. 26 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TGA stop codon in exon 26 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000048519). Exon 5 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Snx13 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP24-209G1 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: Homozygous null mice are growth retarded and die at midgestation with defects in neural tube closure, vasculogenesis and placental development. Mutant visceral yolk sac endoderm cells exhibit altered endocytic compartments, abundant autophagic vacuoles and mislocalization of endocytic markers. Exon 5 starts from about 11.2% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 5 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 4 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 834 bp, and the size of intron 5 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 4378 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~622 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

No significant high GC-content region is found. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.

This family of proteins is unified by their characteristic phox (PX) phosphoinositides binding domain. Along with binding to membranes, this family of SNXs also comprises a diverse array of protein-protein interaction motifs that are required for cellular sorting and protein trafficking. SNXs play a role in maintaining the integrity of the proteome which is essential for regulating multiple fundamental processes such as cell cycle progression, transcription, metabolism, and stress response. To tightly regulate these processes proteins must be expressed and degraded in the correct location and at the correct time. The cell employs several proteolysis mechanisms to ensure that proteins are selectively degraded at the appropriate spatiotemporal conditions. SNXs play a role in ubiquitin-mediated protein homeostasis at multiple levels including cargo localization, recycling, degradation, and function. In this review, we will discuss the role of SNXs in three different protein homeostasis systems: endocytosis lysosomal, the ubiquitin-proteasomal, and the autophagy-lysosomal system. The highly conserved nature of this protein family by beginning with the early research on SNXs and protein trafficking in yeast and lead into their important roles in mammalian systems.

McDonald5,6, Maria Bitner‑Glindzicz1, Myriam Hemberger8, Jason Rihel2, Lydia Teboul3, W. Mike Henne4, Dagan Jenkins1, Gudrun E. Moore1 & Philip Stanier1* Mutations in the SNX14 gene cause spinocerebellar ataxia, autosomal recessive 20 (SCAR20) in both humans and dogs. Studies implicating the phenotypic consequences of SNX14 mutations to be consequences of subcellular disruption to autophagy and lipid metabolism have been limited to in vitro investigation of patient‑derived dermal fbroblasts, laboratory engineered cell lines and developmental analysis of zebrafsh morphants. SNX14 homologues Snz (Drosophila) and Mdm1 (yeast) have also been conducted, demonstrated an important biochemical role during lipid biogenesis. In this study we report the efect of loss of SNX14 in mice, which resulted in embryonic lethality around mid‑gestation due to placental pathology that involves severe disruption to syncytiotrophoblast cell diferentiation. In contrast to other vertebrates, zebrafsh carrying a homozygous, maternal zygotic snx14 genetic loss‑of‑function mutation were both viable and anatomically normal. Whilst no obvious behavioural efects were observed, elevated levels of neutral lipids and phospholipids resemble previously reported efects on lipid homeostasis in other species. The biochemical role of SNX14 therefore appears largely conserved through evolution while the consequences of loss of function varies between species.

  • SNX13 Reduction Mediates Heart Failure Through Degradative Sorting of Apoptosis Repressor with Caspase Recruitment Domain
    ARTICLE Received 2 May 2014 | Accepted 8 Sep 2014 | Published 8 Oct 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms6177 SNX13 reduction mediates heart failure through degradative sorting of apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain Jun Li1,2,*, Changming Li1,3,*, Dasheng Zhang1,2, Dan Shi1,2, Man Qi1,3, Jing Feng1,3, Tianyou Yuan1,2, Xinran Xu1,2, Dandan Liang1,2, Liang Xu1,2, Hong Zhang1,2, Yi Liu1,2, Jinjin Chen1,3, Jiangchuan Ye1,3, Weifang Jiang4, Yingyu Cui1,5, Yangyang Zhang6, Luying Peng1,2,5, Zhaonian Zhou1,7 & Yi-Han Chen1,2,3,5 Heart failure (HF) is associated with complicated molecular remodelling within cardio- myocytes; however, the mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. Here we show that sorting nexin-13 (SNX13), a member of both the sorting nexin and the regulator of G protein signalling (RGS) protein families, is a potent mediator of HF. Decreased levels of SNX13 are observed in failing hearts of humans and of experimental animals. SNX13-deficient zebrafish recapitulate HF with striking cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Mechanistically, a reduction in SNX13 expression facilitates the degradative sorting of apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC), which is a multifunctional inhibitor of apoptosis. Consequently, the apoptotic pathway is activated, resulting in the loss of cardiac cells and the dampening of cardiac function. The N-terminal PXA structure of SNX13 is responsible for mediating the endosomal trafficking of ARC. Thus, this study reveals that SNX13 profoundly affects cardiac performance through the SNX13-PXA-ARC-caspase signalling pathway. 1 Key Laboratory of Arrhythmias of the Ministry of Education of China, East Hospital, Tongji University School of Medicine, Shanghai 200120, China.

  • (PX) Domains Based on Their Phosphoinositide Binding Specificities
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-09355-y OPEN Classification of the human phox homology (PX) domains based on their phosphoinositide binding specificities Mintu Chandra1, Yanni K.-Y.

Teasdale1,4, W. Mike Henne2, Mehdi Mobli 3 & Brett M. Collins1 1234567890():,; Phox homology (PX) domains are membrane interacting domains that bind to phosphati- dylinositol phospholipids or phosphoinositides, markers of organelle identity in the endocytic system. Although many PX domains bind the canonical endosome-enriched lipid PtdIns3P, others interact with alternative phosphoinositides, and a precise understanding of how these specificities arise has remained elusive. Here we systematically screen all human PX domains for their phospholipid preferences using liposome binding assays, biolayer interferometry and isothermal titration calorimetry. These analyses define four distinct classes of human PX domains that either bind specifically to PtdIns3P, non-specifically to various di- and tri- phosphorylated phosphoinositides, bind both PtdIns3P and other phosphoinositides, or associate with none of the lipids tested. A comprehensive evaluation of PX domain structures reveals two distinct binding sites that explain these specificities, providing a basis for defining and predicting the functional membrane interactions of the entire PX domain protein family. 1 Institute for Molecular Bioscience, The University of Queensland, St. Lucia, QLD 4072, Australia. 2 Department of Cell Biology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX 75390, USA. 3 Centre for Advanced Imaging and School of Chemistry and Molecular Biology, The University of Queensland, St.

Correspondence: Jian Yang ([email protected]) or Chunyu Zeng ([email protected]) The sorting nexin (SNX) family consists of a diverse group of cytoplasmic- and membrane-associated phosphoinositide-binding proteins that play pivotal roles in the regu- lation of protein trafficking. This includes the entire endocytic pathway, such as endocytosis, endosomal sorting, and endosomal signaling. Dysfunctions of SNX pathway are involved in several forms of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Moreover, SNX gene variants are associated with CVDs. In this review, we discuss the current knowledge on SNX-mediated regulatory mechanisms and their roles in the pathogenesis and treatment of CVDs. Introduction Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), including hypertension, coronary heart disease, heart failure, and stroke, are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality, worldwide, accounting for substantial suffering and healthcare-related expenditures [1]. According to the American Heart Association, the duration of infor- mal caregiving hours increases from 0.10 h/wk for patients with coronary heart disease to 6.12 h/wk for patients with stroke.

  • Phosphorylation of Conserved Phosphoinositide Binding Pocket Regulates Sorting Nexin Membrane Targeting
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-03370-1 OPEN Phosphorylation of conserved phosphoinositide binding pocket regulates sorting nexin membrane targeting Marc Lenoir1, Cansel Ustunel2, Sandya Rajesh1, Jaswant Kaur1, Dimitri Moreau 2, Jean Gruenberg 2 & Michael Overduin 3 fi 1234567890():,; Sorting nexins anchor traf cking machines to membranes by binding phospholipids. The paradigm of the superfamily is sorting nexin 3 (SNX3), which localizes to early endosomes by recognizing phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P) to initiate retromer-mediated segrega- tion of cargoes to the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Here we report the solution structure of full length human SNX3, and show that PI3P recognition is accompanied by bilayer insertion of a proximal loop in its extended Phox homology (PX) domain. Phosphoinositide (PIP) binding is completely blocked by cancer-linked phosphorylation of a conserved serine beside the ste- reospecific PI3P pocket. This “PIP-stop” releases endosomal SNX3 to the cytosol, and reveals how protein kinases control membrane assemblies. It constitutes a widespread regulatory element found across the PX superfamily and throughout evolution including of fungi and plants. This illuminates the mechanism of a biological switch whereby structured PIP sites are phosphorylated to liberate protein machines from organelle surfaces. 1 School of Cancer Sciences, College of Medical and Dental Sciences, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham B15 2TT, UK. 2 Biochemistry Department, University of Geneva, 30 quai Ernest Ansermet, 1211 Geneva 4, Switzerland. 3 Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry, University of Alberta, Medical Sciences Building, Edmonton, AB T6G 2H7, Canada.

  • Original Article Association of the SNX13 Rs4142995 SNP and Serum Lipid Levels in the Jing and Han Populations
    Int J Clin Exp Pathol 2016;9(12):12669-12685 www.ijcep.com /ISSN:1936-2625/IJCEP0035407 Original Article Association of the SNX13 rs4142995 SNP and serum lipid levels in the Jing and Han populations Hui Gao, Rui-Xing Yin, Qing-Hui Zhang, Ling Pan, Wei-Jun Li, Jian-Hua Huang, Kai-Guang Li, Yuan Bin Department of Cardiology, Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, The First Affiliated Hospital, Guangxi Medical University, Nanning, China Received July 10, 2016; Accepted July 20, 2016; Epub December 1, 2016; Published December 15, 2016 Abstract: The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the sorting nexin 13 gene (SNX13) rs4142995 locus has been associated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels in a previous genome-wide association study (GWAS), but little is known about the association of the SNX13 rs4142995 SNP and serum lipid profiles in the Chinese populations. The present study was to detect the association of the SNX13 rs4142995 SNP and several environmental factors with serum lipid levels in the Jing and Han populations. Genotyping of the SNX13 rs4142995 SNP was performed in 670 subjects of Jing and 670 subjects of Han peoples using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism, and then confirmed by direct sequencing. The G allele carriers in the Jing population had lower serum total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and apolipopro- tein (Apo) B levels than the G allele non-carriers. Subgroup analyses showed that the G allele carriers had lower TC, LDL-C and ApoB levels in Jing females but not in Jing males. Serum lipid parameters were also correlated with several environmental factors in the Jing and Han populations, or in males and females in both ethnic groups.
