CRKL As a Lung Cancer Oncogene and Mediator Of
views in The spotliGhT CRKL as a Lung Cancer Oncogene and Mediator of Acquired Resistance to eGFR inhibitors: is it All That it is Cracked Up to Be? Marc Ladanyi summary: Cheung and colleagues demonstrate that amplified CRKL can function as a driver oncogene in lung adeno- carcinoma, activating both RAS and RAP1 to induce mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling. In addition, they show that CRKL amplification may be another mechanism for primary or acquired resistance to epidermal growth factor re- ceptor kinase inhibitors. Cancer Discovery; 1(7); 560–1. ©2011 AACR. Commentary on Cheung et al., p. 608 (1). In this issue of Cancer Discovery, Cheung and colleagues (1) mutual exclusivity. Cheung and colleagues (1) report that present extensive genomic and functional data supporting focal CRKL amplification is mutually exclusive with EGFR focal amplification of the CRKL gene at 22q11.21 as a driver mutation and EGFR amplification. However, of the 6 lung oncogene in lung adenocarcinoma. The report expands on cancer cell lines found in this study to have focal gains of data previously presented by Kim and colleagues (2). CRKL CRKL, 2 contain other major driver oncogenes (KRAS G13D is a signaling adaptor protein that contains SH2 and SH3 in HCC515, BRAF G469A in H1755; refs. 7, 8). Interestingly, domains that mediate protein–protein interactions linking both cell lines demonstrated clear dependence on CRKL in tyrosine-phosphorylated upstream signaling molecules (e.g., functional assays. Perhaps CRKL amplification is more akin BCAR1, paxillin, GAB1) to downstream effectors (e.g., C3G, to PIK3CA mutations, which often, but not always, are con- SOS) (3). -

Investigation of the Role of Cbl-B in Leukemogenesis and Migration
INVESTIGATION OF THE ROLE OF CBL-B IN LEUKEMOGENESIS AND MIGRATION by Karla Michelle Badger-Brown A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Medical Biophysics University of Toronto © Copyright by Karla Michelle Badger-Brown (2009) Investigation of the Role of CBL-B in Leukemogenesis and Migration Doctor of Philosophy, 2009 Karla Michelle Badger-Brown Department of Medical Biophysics University of Toronto ABSTRACT CBL proteins are E3 ubiquitin ligases and adaptor proteins. The mammalian homologs – CBL, CBL-B and CBL-3 show broad tissue expression; accordingly, the CBL proteins play roles in multiple cell types. We have investigated the function of the CBL-B protein in hematopoietic cells and fibroblasts. The causative agent of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is BCR-ABL. This oncogenic fusion down-modulates CBL-B protein levels, suggesting that CBL-B regulates either the development or progression of CML. To assess the involvement of CBL-B in CML, bone marrow transduction and transplantation (BMT) studies were performed. Recipients of BCR-ABL-infected CBL-B(-/-) cells succumbed to a CML-like myeloproliferative disease with a longer latency than the wild-type recipients. Peripheral blood white blood cell numbers were reduced, as were splenic weights. Yet despite the reduced leukemic burden, granulocyte numbers were amplified throughout the animals. As well, CBL- B(-/-) bone marrow (BM) cells possessed defective BM homing capabilities. From these results we concluded that CBL-B negatively regulates granulopoiesis and that prolonged latency in our CBL-B(-/-) BMT animals was a function of perturbed homing. To develop an in vitro model to study CBL-B function we established mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) deficient in CBL-B expression. -
Gene Ontology Functional Annotations and Pleiotropy
Network based analysis of genetic disease associations Sarah Gilman Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2013 Sarah Gilman All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Network based analysis of genetic disease associations Sarah Gilman Despite extensive efforts and many promising early findings, genome-wide association studies have explained only a small fraction of the genetic factors contributing to common human diseases. There are many theories about where this “missing heritability” might lie, but increasingly the prevailing view is that common variants, the target of GWAS, are not solely responsible for susceptibility to common diseases and a substantial portion of human disease risk will be found among rare variants. Relatively new, such variants have not been subject to purifying selection, and therefore may be particularly pertinent for neuropsychiatric disorders and other diseases with greatly reduced fecundity. Recently, several researchers have made great progress towards uncovering the genetics behind autism and schizophrenia. By sequencing families, they have found hundreds of de novo variants occurring only in affected individuals, both large structural copy number variants and single nucleotide variants. Despite studying large cohorts there has been little recurrence among the genes implicated suggesting that many hundreds of genes may underlie these complex phenotypes. The question -

Characterizing Genomic Duplication in Autism Spectrum Disorder by Edward James Higginbotham a Thesis Submitted in Conformity
Characterizing Genomic Duplication in Autism Spectrum Disorder by Edward James Higginbotham A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Graduate Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto © Copyright by Edward James Higginbotham 2020 i Abstract Characterizing Genomic Duplication in Autism Spectrum Disorder Edward James Higginbotham Master of Science Graduate Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto 2020 Duplication, the gain of additional copies of genomic material relative to its ancestral diploid state is yet to achieve full appreciation for its role in human traits and disease. Challenges include accurately genotyping, annotating, and characterizing the properties of duplications, and resolving duplication mechanisms. Whole genome sequencing, in principle, should enable accurate detection of duplications in a single experiment. This thesis makes use of the technology to catalogue disease relevant duplications in the genomes of 2,739 individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who enrolled in the Autism Speaks MSSNG Project. Fine-mapping the breakpoint junctions of 259 ASD-relevant duplications identified 34 (13.1%) variants with complex genomic structures as well as tandem (193/259, 74.5%) and NAHR- mediated (6/259, 2.3%) duplications. As whole genome sequencing-based studies expand in scale and reach, a continued focus on generating high-quality, standardized duplication data will be prerequisite to addressing their associated biological mechanisms. ii Acknowledgements I thank Dr. Stephen Scherer for his leadership par excellence, his generosity, and for giving me a chance. I am grateful for his investment and the opportunities afforded me, from which I have learned and benefited. I would next thank Drs. -
9 Aug 2016 the Role of CRKL in Breast Cancer Metastasis
The role of CRKL in Breast Cancer Metastasis: Insights from Systems Biology Abderrahim Chafik Institut Mohamed VI, Sit´ede l’air, 120101, T´emara, Rabat, Morocco September 9, 2018 Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally. They are involved in key bio- logical processes and then may play a major role in the development of human diseases including cancer, in particular their involvement in breast cancer metastasis has been confirmed. Recently, the authors of ref.([27] have found that miR-429 may have a role in the inhibition of breast cancer metastasis and have identified its target gene CRKL as a potential candidate. In this paper, by using systems biology tools we have shown that CRKL is involved in positive regulation of ERK1/2 signaling pathway and contribute to the regulation of LYN through a arXiv:1608.02752v1 [q-bio.MN] 9 Aug 2016 topological generalization of feed forward loop Keywords: microRNA; breast cancer; metastasis; CRKL 1 1 Introduction MicroRNAs are an evolutionarily conserved class of small (about 22 nucleotides) non-coding RNAs that negatively regulate gene expres- sion post transcriptionally by base-pairing to the 3’UTR of target mRNAs leading to repression of protein production or mRNA degra- dation. Each miRNA can regulate the expression of hundreds of genes and a single transcript can be targeted by multiple miRNAs. (For a recent introduction see for example [15] Since their discovery in 1993 [11] there have been increasing evi- dences that they are involved in important biological processes. In- deed, in normal cells, miRNAs control normal rates of cellular growth, proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. -

BD Phosflow Human Crkl (Py207) Monoclonal Antibodies
BD Phosflow Human CrkL (pY207) Monoclonal Antibodies Features BD Biosciences now offers purified and fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies for the study of phosphorylated Crk-Like (CrkL), a key Useful for the identification of cells that express the adaptor molecule in BCR-ABL signaling. BCR-ABL fusion protein Anti-human CrkL (pY207) antibody (clone K30-391.50.80) Suitable marker for the study of CrkL signal transduction The new BD™ Phosflow human CrkL (pY207) antibody (clone Available as purified and in a wide selection of K30-391.50.80) reacts with CrkL when phosphorylated at fluorochrome-conjugated formats including tyrosine 207. It does not react with the unphosphorylated Alexa Fluor® 488, Alexa Fluor® 647, and PE protein. CrkL is a 39-kDa adaptor protein that is preferentially expressed in hematopoietic cells. CrkL contains SH2 and SH3 binding domains that allow it to interact with a variety of effector proteins including paxillin, p130Cas, c-Cbl, c-Abl, and C3G. 104 Available conjugates include Alexa Fluor® 488, Alexa Fluor® 647, and PE formats to enable maximum flexibility for design of multicolor panels in combination with any of our family of 103 BD FACS™ brand flow cytometers. Antibodies were tested in human model systems but are likely to cross-react with mouse Gate 1 102 and rat model systems due to predicted sequence identity. Discovery of Crk proteins CD3 (PerCP) Crk adaptor proteins were discovered in the 1980s as a novel 1 10 retroviral gene product v-Crk. CrkL is a cellular homolog to Gate 2 v-Crk and contains Src Homology 2 (SH2) and Src Homology 3 (SH3) domains separated by flexible linker sequences. -
