Mouse Kpna4 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Kpna4 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Kpna4 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Kpna4 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_008467 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000027782 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 3. 17 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAG stop codon in exon 17 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000194558). Exon 6~7 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Kpna4 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-323J1 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: Exon 6 starts from about 18.43% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 6~7 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 5 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 5436 bp, and the size of intron 7 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 1756 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~1463 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.

ABSTRACT Tumour angiogenesis is a vital process in the pathology of tumour development and metastasis. Targeting markers of tumour endothelium provide a means of targeted destruction of a tumours oxygen and nutrient supply via destruction of tumour vasculature, which in turn ultimately leads to beneficial consequences to patients. Although current anti -angiogenic and vascular targeting strategies help patients, more potently in combination with chemo therapy, there is still a need for more tumour endothelial marker discoveries as current treatments have cardiovascular and other side effects. For the first time, the analyses of in-vivo biotinylation of an embryonic system is performed to obtain putative vascular targets. Also for the first time, deep sequencing is applied to freshly isolated tumour and normal endothelial cells from lung, colon and bladder tissues for the identification of pan-vascular-targets. Integration of the proteomic, deep sequencing, public cDNA libraries and microarrays, delivers 5,892 putative vascular targets to the science community.

Kaminker1,2 Departments of 1Neuroscience, 2Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, and 3Molecular Biology, Genentech Inc., South San Francisco, California 94080 Neuronal gene expression is modulated by activity via calcium-permeable receptors such as NMDA receptors (NMDARs). While gene expression changes downstream of evoked NMDAR activity have been well studied, much less is known about gene expression changes that occur under conditions of basal neuronal activity. In mouse dissociated hippocampal neuronal cultures, we found that a broad NMDAR antagonist, AP5, induced robust gene expression changes under basal activity, but subtype-specific antagonists did not. While some of the gene expression changes are also known to be downstream of stimulated NMDAR activity, others appear specific to basal NMDARactivity.ThegenesalteredbyAP5treatmentofbasalcultureswereenrichedforpathwaysrelatedtoclassIIahistonedeacetylases (HDACs), apoptosis, and synapse-related signaling. Specifically, AP5 altered the expression of all three class IIa HDACs that are highly expressed in the brain, HDAC4, HDAC5, and HDAC9, and also induced nuclear accumulation of HDAC4.

  • (KPNA7), a Divergent Member of the Importin a Family of Nuclear Import
    Kelley et al. BMC Cell Biology 2010, 11:63 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2121/11/63 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Karyopherin a7 (KPNA7), a divergent member of the importin a family of nuclear import receptors Joshua B Kelley1, Ashley M Talley1, Adam Spencer1, Daniel Gioeli2, Bryce M Paschal1,3* Abstract Background: Classical nuclear localization signal (NLS) dependent nuclear import is carried out by a heterodimer of importin a and importin b. NLS cargo is recognized by importin a, which is bound by importin b. Importin b mediates translocation of the complex through the central channel of the nuclear pore, and upon reaching the nucleus, RanGTP binding to importin b triggers disassembly of the complex. To date, six importin a family members, encoded by separate genes, have been described in humans. Results: We sequenced and characterized a seventh member of the importin a family of transport factors, karyopherin a 7 (KPNA7), which is most closely related to KPNA2. The domain of KPNA7 that binds Importin b (IBB) is divergent, and shows stronger binding to importin b than the IBB domains from of other importin a family members. With regard to NLS recognition, KPNA7 binds to the retinoblastoma (RB) NLS to a similar degree as KPNA2, but it fails to bind the SV40-NLS and the human nucleoplasmin (NPM) NLS. KPNA7 shows a predominantly nuclear distribution under steady state conditions, which contrasts with KPNA2 which is primarily cytoplasmic. Conclusion: KPNA7 is a novel importin a family member in humans that belongs to the importin a2 subfamily. KPNA7 shows different subcellular localization and NLS binding characteristics compared to other members of the importin a family.

  • Mir-17-92 Fine-Tunes MYC Expression and Function to Ensure
    ARTICLE Received 31 Mar 2015 | Accepted 22 Sep 2015 | Published 10 Nov 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms9725 OPEN miR-17-92 fine-tunes MYC expression and function to ensure optimal B cell lymphoma growth Marija Mihailovich1, Michael Bremang1, Valeria Spadotto1, Daniele Musiani1, Elena Vitale1, Gabriele Varano2,w, Federico Zambelli3, Francesco M. Mancuso1,w, David A. Cairns1,w, Giulio Pavesi3, Stefano Casola2 & Tiziana Bonaldi1 The synergism between c-MYC and miR-17-19b, a truncated version of the miR-17-92 cluster, is well-documented during tumor initiation. However, little is known about miR-17-19b function in established cancers. Here we investigate the role of miR-17-19b in c-MYC-driven lymphomas by integrating SILAC-based quantitative proteomics, transcriptomics and 30 untranslated region (UTR) analysis upon miR-17-19b overexpression. We identify over one hundred miR-17-19b targets, of which 40% are co-regulated by c-MYC. Downregulation of a new miR-17/20 target, checkpoint kinase 2 (Chek2), increases the recruitment of HuR to c- MYC transcripts, resulting in the inhibition of c-MYC translation and thus interfering with in vivo tumor growth. Hence, in established lymphomas, miR-17-19b fine-tunes c-MYC activity through a tight control of its function and expression, ultimately ensuring cancer cell homeostasis. Our data highlight the plasticity of miRNA function, reflecting changes in the mRNA landscape and 30 UTR shortening at different stages of tumorigenesis. 1 Department of Experimental Oncology, European Institute of Oncology, Via Adamello 16, Milan 20139, Italy. 2 Units of Genetics of B cells and lymphomas, IFOM, FIRC Institute of Molecular Oncology Foundation, Milan 20139, Italy.

  • Germline Risk of Clonal Haematopoiesis
    REVIEWS Germline risk of clonal haematopoiesis Alexander J. Silver 1,2, Alexander G. Bick 1,3,4,5 and Michael R. Savona 1,2,4,5 ✉ Abstract | Clonal haematopoiesis (CH) is a common, age-related expansion of blood cells with somatic mutations that is associated with an increased risk of haematological malignancies, cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. CH may be caused by point mutations in genes associated with myeloid neoplasms, chromosomal copy number changes and loss of heterozygosity events. How inherited and environmental factors shape the incidence of CH is incompletely understood. Even though the several varieties of CH may have distinct phenotypic consequences, recent research points to an underlying genetic architecture that is highly overlapping. Moreover, there are numerous commonalities between the inherited variation associated with CH and that which has been linked to age-associated biomarkers and diseases. In this Review, we synthesize what is currently known about how inherited variation shapes the risk of CH and how this genetic architecture intersects with the biology of diseases that occur with ageing.

  • Differential Regulation of Karyopherin Α 2 Expression by TGF-Β1 and IFN-Γ in Normal Human Epidermal Keratinocytes

In this study, we first compared the expression patterns of the karyopherin a (KPNA) subtypes, and found that KPNA2, KPNA3, and KPNA4 were the major subtypes in both normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) and normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs). Stimulation with either transforming growth factor (TGF)-b1 or IFN-g for 24 hours resulted in the downregulation of KPNA2 expression specifically in NHEK at both the mRNA and protein levels. Interestingly, IFN-g, but not TGF-b1, specifically downregulated KPNA2 expression at the promoter level, suggesting differential regulation of KPNA2 expression by IFN-g and TGF-b1. We then demonstrated that KPNA2 physically bound to IFN regulatory factor-1 (IRF-1), a transcription factor induced by IFN-g, and induced nuclear translocation of IRF-1 in NHEKs. We finally performed microarray and quantitative real-time PCR analysis for the mRNA expression pattern of NHEK with either overexpression or knockdown of KPNA2, and indicated KPNA2 involvement for various epidermal gene regulations such as involucrin.

  • HSP90-Incorporating Chaperome Networks As Biosensor for Disease-Related Pathways in Patient- Specific Midbrain Dopamine Neurons
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-06486-6 OPEN HSP90-incorporating chaperome networks as biosensor for disease-related pathways in patient- specific midbrain dopamine neurons Sarah Kishinevsky1,2,3,4, Tai Wang3, Anna Rodina3, Sun Young Chung1,2, Chao Xu3, John Philip5, Tony Taldone3, Suhasini Joshi3, Mary L.

Henrickson5, 1234567890():,; Gabriela Chiosis3,13 & Lorenz Studer1,2 Environmental and genetic risk factors contribute to Parkinson’s Disease (PD) pathogenesis and the associated midbrain dopamine (mDA) neuron loss. Here, we identify early PD pathogenic events by developing methodology that utilizes recent innovations in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) and chemical sensors of HSP90-incorporating chaperome networks. We show that events triggered by PD-related genetic or toxic stimuli alter the neuronal proteome, thereby altering the stress-specific chaperome networks, which produce changes detected by chemical sensors. Through this method we identify STAT3 and NF-κB signaling activation as examples of genetic stress, and phospho-tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) activation as an example of toxic stress-induced pathways in PD neurons. Importantly, pharmacological inhibition of the stress chaperome network reversed abnormal phospho- STAT3 signaling and phospho-TH-related dopamine levels and rescued PD neuron viability. The use of chemical sensors of chaperome networks on hPSC-derived lineages may present a general strategy to identify molecular events associated with neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract The nuclear transport of functional proteins is important for facilitating appropriate gene expression. The proteins of the importin α family of nuclear transport receptors operate via several pathways to perform their nuclear protein import function. Additionally, these proteins are also reported to possess other functions, including chromatin association and gene regulation.
