The disease follows an auto- Case report; somal recessive pattern of inheritance and causes deficiency in the activity of sulfite oxidase, an Exome sequencing enzyme that normally catalyzes conversion of sulfite to sulfate. Aim of the study: SOD is an underdiagnosed disorder and its diagnosis can be difficult in young infants as early clinical features and neuroimaging changes may imitate some common diseases. Since the prognosis of the disease is poor, using exome sequencing as a powerful and efficient strat- egy for identifying the genes underlying rare mendelian disorders can provide important knowledge about early diagnosis, disease mechanisms, biological pathways, and potential therapeutic targets. -

ABSTRACT Sirt1 facilitates the reprogramming of mouse somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). It is regulated by micro-RNA and reported to be a target of miR-135a. However, their relationship and roles on cellular reprogramming remain unknown. In this study, we found negative correlations between miR-135a and Sirt1 during mouse embryonic stem cells differentiation and mouse embryonic fibroblasts reprogramming. We further found that the reprogramming efficiency was reduced by the overexpression of miR-135a precursor but induced by the miR-135a inhibitor. Co-immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry identified 21 SIRT1 interacting proteins including KU70 and WRN, which were highly enriched for DNA damage repair. -

Its yearling weight and carcass traits (backfat thickness, carcass weight, eye muscle area, and marbling score) are economically important for the selection of young and proven bulls. In recent decades, the advent of high throughput genotyping technologies has made it possible to perform genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for the detection of genomic regions associated with traits of economic interest in different species. In this study, we conducted a weighted single-step genome-wide association study which combines all genotypes, phenotypes and pedigree data in one step (ssGBLUP). It allows for the use of all SNPs simultaneously along with all phenotypes from genotyped and ungenotyped animals. Our results revealed 33 relevant genomic regions related to the traits of interest. -

Expression of the POTE Gene Family in Human Ovarian Cancer Carter J Barger1,2, Wa Zhang1,2, Ashok Sharma 1,2, Linda Chee1,2, Smitha R
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Expression of the POTE gene family in human ovarian cancer Carter J Barger1,2, Wa Zhang1,2, Ashok Sharma 1,2, Linda Chee1,2, Smitha R. James3, Christina N. Kufel3, Austin Miller 4, Jane Meza5, Ronny Drapkin 6, Kunle Odunsi7,8,9, 2,10 1,2,3 Received: 5 July 2018 David Klinkebiel & Adam R. Karpf Accepted: 7 November 2018 The POTE family includes 14 genes in three phylogenetic groups. We determined POTE mRNA Published: xx xx xxxx expression in normal tissues, epithelial ovarian and high-grade serous ovarian cancer (EOC, HGSC), and pan-cancer, and determined the relationship of POTE expression to ovarian cancer clinicopathology. Groups 1 & 2 POTEs showed testis-specifc expression in normal tissues, consistent with assignment as cancer-testis antigens (CTAs), while Group 3 POTEs were expressed in several normal tissues, indicating they are not CTAs. Pan-POTE and individual POTEs showed signifcantly elevated expression in EOC and HGSC compared to normal controls. Pan-POTE correlated with increased stage, grade, and the HGSC subtype. Select individual POTEs showed increased expression in recurrent HGSC, and POTEE specifcally associated with reduced HGSC OS. Consistent with tumors, EOC cell lines had signifcantly elevated Pan-POTE compared to OSE and FTE cells. Notably, Group 1 & 2 POTEs (POTEs A/B/B2/C/D), Group 3 POTE-actin genes (POTEs E/F/I/J/KP), and other Group 3 POTEs (POTEs G/H/M) show within-group correlated expression, and pan-cancer analyses of tumors and cell lines confrmed this relationship. Based on their restricted expression in normal tissues and increased expression and association with poor prognosis in ovarian cancer, POTEs are potential oncogenes and therapeutic targets in this malignancy. -

Gene Expression Analysis of Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell
Germain et al. Molecular Autism 2014, 5:44 http://www.molecularautism.com/content/5/1/44 RESEARCH Open Access Gene expression analysis of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neurons carrying copy number variants of chromosome 15q11-q13.1 Noelle D Germain1, Pin-Fang Chen1, Alex M Plocik1, Heather Glatt-Deeley1, Judith Brown2, James J Fink3, Kaitlyn A Bolduc3, Tiwanna M Robinson3, Eric S Levine3, Lawrence T Reiter4, Brenton R Graveley1,5, Marc Lalande1 and Stormy J Chamberlain1* Abstract Background: Duplications of the chromosome 15q11-q13.1 region are associated with an estimated 1 to 3% of all autism cases, making this copy number variation (CNV) one of the most frequent chromosome abnormalities associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Several genes located within the 15q11-q13.1 duplication region including ubiquitin protein ligase E3A (UBE3A), the gene disrupted in Angelman syndrome (AS), are involved in neural function and may play important roles in the neurobehavioral phenotypes associated with chromosome 15q11-q13.1 duplication (Dup15q) syndrome. Methods: We have generated induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from five different individuals containing CNVs of 15q11-q13.1. The iPSC lines were differentiated into mature, functional neurons. Gene expression across the 15q11-q13.1 locus was compared among the five iPSC lines and corresponding iPSC-derived neurons using quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). Genome-wide gene expression was compared between neurons derived from three iPSC lines using mRNA-Seq. Results: Analysis of 15q11-q13.1 gene expression in neurons derived from Dup15q iPSCs reveals that gene copy number does not consistently predict expression levels in cells with interstitial duplications of 15q11-q13.1. -
Genomic Selection Signatures in Autism Spectrum Disorder Identifies
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Genomic selection signatures in autism spectrum disorder identifes cognitive genomic tradeof and its relevance in paradoxical phenotypes of defcits versus potentialities Anil Prakash1,2 & Moinak Banerjee1* Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by paradoxical phenotypes of defcits as well as gain in brain function. To address this a genomic tradeof hypothesis was tested and followed up with the biological interaction and evolutionary signifcance of positively selected ASD risk genes. SFARI database was used to retrieve the ASD risk genes while for population datasets 1000 genome data was used. Common risk SNPs were subjected to machine learning as well as independent tests for selection, followed by Bayesian analysis to identify the cumulative efect of selection on risk SNPs. Functional implication of these positively selected risk SNPs was assessed and subjected to ontology analysis, pertaining to their interaction and enrichment of biological and cellular functions. This was followed by comparative analysis with the ancient genomes to identify their evolutionary patterns. Our results identifed signifcant positive selection signals in 18 ASD risk SNPs. Functional and ontology analysis indicate the role of biological and cellular processes associated with various brain functions. The core of the biological interaction network constitutes genes for cognition and learning while genes in the periphery of the network had direct or indirect impact on brain function. Ancient genome analysis identifed de novo and conserved evolutionary selection clusters. The de-novo evolutionary cluster represented genes involved in cognitive function. Relative enrichment of the ASD risk SNPs from the respective evolutionary cluster or biological interaction networks may help in addressing the phenotypic diversity in ASD. -

Increased CYFIP1 Dosage Alters Cellular and Dendritic Morphology and Dysregulates Mtor
Molecular Psychiatry (2015) 20, 1069–1078 © 2015 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1359-4184/15 www.nature.com/mp ORIGINAL ARTICLE Increased CYFIP1 dosage alters cellular and dendritic morphology and dysregulates mTOR A Oguro-Ando1,2, C Rosensweig1,5, E Herman1,6, Y Nishimura1,7, D Werling1, BR Bill1, JM Berg1, F Gao1, G Coppola1,3, BS Abrahams1,8 and DH Geschwind1,4 Rare maternally inherited duplications at 15q11-13 are observed in ~ 1% of individuals with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD), making it among the most common causes of ASD. 15q11-13 comprises a complex region, and as this copy number variation encompasses many genes, it is important to explore individual genotype–phenotype relationships. Cytoplasmic FMR1-interacting protein 1 (CYFIP1) is of particular interest because of its interaction with Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP), its upregulation in transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines from patients with duplications at 15q11-13 and ASD and the presence of smaller overlapping deletions of CYFIP1 in patients with schizophrenia and intellectual disability. Here, we confirm that CYFIP1 is upregulated in transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines and demonstrate its upregulation in the post-mortem brain from 15q11-13 duplication patients for the first time. To investigate how increased CYFIP1 dosage might predispose to neurodevelopmental disease, we studied the consequence of its overexpression in multiple systems. We show that overexpression of CYFIP1 results in morphological abnormalities including cellular hypertrophy in SY5Y cells and differentiated mouse neuronal progenitors. We validate these results in vivo by generating a BAC transgenic mouse, which overexpresses Cyfip1 under the endogenous promotor, observing an increase in the proportion of mature dendritic spines and dendritic spine density.
