Mouse Nrd1 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Nrd1 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Nrd1 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Nrd1 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_146150 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000053510 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 4. 31 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 31 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000065977). Exon 4 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Nrd1 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-315E18 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 a knock-out allele mostly die within 48 hours of birth with surviving mice exhibiting cortical thinning, enlarged lateral ventricles, hypomyelination, reduced grip strength, impaired coordination, and impaired spatial working memory. Exon 4 starts from about 21.42% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 4 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 3 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 1037 bp, and the size of intron 4 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 5092 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~654 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.

    ANALYSIS OF GENE EXPRESSION DATA FOR GENE ONTOLOGY BASED PROTEIN FUNCTION PREDICTION A Thesis Presented to The Graduate Faculty of The University of Akron In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Robert Daniel Macholan May 2011 ANALYSIS OF GENE EXPRESSION DATA FOR GENE ONTOLOGY BASED PROTEIN FUNCTION PREDICTION Robert Daniel Macholan Thesis Approved: Accepted: _______________________________ _______________________________ Advisor Department Chair Dr. Zhong-Hui Duan Dr. Chien-Chung Chan _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the College Dr. Chien-Chung Chan Dr. Chand K. Midha _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Yingcai Xiao Dr. George R. Newkome _______________________________ Date ii ABSTRACT A tremendous increase in genomic data has encouraged biologists to turn to bioinformatics in order to assist in its interpretation and processing. One of the present challenges that need to be overcome in order to understand this data more completely is the development of a reliable method to accurately predict the function of a protein from its genomic information. This study focuses on developing an effective algorithm for protein function prediction. The algorithm is based on proteins that have similar expression patterns. The similarity of the expression data is determined using a novel measure, the slope matrix. The slope matrix introduces a normalized method for the comparison of expression levels throughout a proteome. The algorithm is tested using real microarray gene expression data. Their functions are characterized using gene ontology annotations. The results of the case study indicate the protein function prediction algorithm developed is comparable to the prediction algorithms that are based on the annotations of homologous proteins.

(Ph.D., Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology) A Computational and Evolutionary Approach to Understanding Cryptic Unstable Transcripts in Yeast Thesis Directed by Robin Dowell Cryptic unstable transcripts (CUTs) are a largely unexplored class of nuclear exosome degraded, non-coding RNAs in budding yeast. It is highly debated whether CUT transcription has a functional role in the cell or whether CUTs represent noise in the yeast transcriptome. I sought to ascertain the extent of conserved CUT expression across a variety of Saccharomyces yeast strains to further understand and characterize the nature of CUT expression. To this end I designed a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to analyze strand-specific RNA sequencing data from nuclear exosome rrp6Δ mutants to identify and compare CUTs in four different yeast strains: S288c, Σ1278b, JAY291 (S.cerevisiae) and N17 (S.paradoxus).

  • PAR-CLIP Data Indicate That Nrd1-Nab3
    Webb et al. Genome Biology 2014, 15:R8 http://genomebiology.com/2014/15/1/R8 RESEARCH Open Access PAR-CLIP data indicate that Nrd1-Nab3-dependent transcription termination regulates expression of hundreds of protein coding genes in yeast Shaun Webb2, Ralph D Hector1, Grzegorz Kudla3 and Sander Granneman1,2* Abstract Background: Nrd1 and Nab3 are essential sequence-specific yeast RNA binding proteins that function as a heterodimer in the processing and degradation of diverse classes of RNAs. These proteins also regulate several mRNA coding genes; however, it remains unclear exactly what percentage of the mRNA component of the transcriptome these proteins control. To address this question, we used the pyCRAC software package developed in our laboratory to analyze CRAC and PAR-CLIP data for Nrd1-Nab3-RNA interactions. Results: We generated high-resolution maps of Nrd1-Nab3-RNA interactions, from which we have uncovered hundreds of new Nrd1-Nab3 mRNA targets, representing between 20 and 30% of protein-coding transcripts. Although Nrd1 and Nab3 showed a preference for binding near 5′ ends of relatively short transcripts, they bound transcripts throughout coding sequences and 3′ UTRs. Moreover, our data for Nrd1-Nab3 binding to 3′ UTRs was consistent with a role for these proteins in the termination of transcription. Our data also support a tight integration of Nrd1-Nab3 with the nutrient response pathway. Finally, we provide experimental evidence for some of our predictions, using northern blot and RT-PCR assays. Conclusions: Collectively, our data support the notion that Nrd1 and Nab3 function is tightly integrated with the nutrient response and indicate a role for these proteins in the regulation of many mRNA coding genes.

  • A Yeast Phenomic Model for the Influence of Warburg Metabolism on Genetic Buffering of Doxorubicin Sean M
    Santos and Hartman Cancer & Metabolism (2019) 7:9 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40170-019-0201-3 RESEARCH Open Access A yeast phenomic model for the influence of Warburg metabolism on genetic buffering of doxorubicin Sean M. Santos and John L. Hartman IV* Abstract Background: The influence of the Warburg phenomenon on chemotherapy response is unknown. Saccharomyces cerevisiae mimics the Warburg effect, repressing respiration in the presence of adequate glucose. Yeast phenomic experiments were conducted to assess potential influences of Warburg metabolism on gene-drug interaction underlying the cellular response to doxorubicin. Homologous genes from yeast phenomic and cancer pharmacogenomics data were analyzed to infer evolutionary conservation of gene-drug interaction and predict therapeutic relevance. Methods: Cell proliferation phenotypes (CPPs) of the yeast gene knockout/knockdown library were measured by quantitative high-throughput cell array phenotyping (Q-HTCP), treating with escalating doxorubicin concentrations under conditions of respiratory or glycolytic metabolism. Doxorubicin-gene interaction was quantified by departure of CPPs observed for the doxorubicin-treated mutant strain from that expected based on an interaction model. Recursive expectation-maximization clustering (REMc) and Gene Ontology (GO)-based analyses of interactions identified functional biological modules that differentially buffer or promote doxorubicin cytotoxicity with respect to Warburg metabolism. Yeast phenomic and cancer pharmacogenomics data were integrated to predict differential gene expression causally influencing doxorubicin anti-tumor efficacy. Results: Yeast compromised for genes functioning in chromatin organization, and several other cellular processes are more resistant to doxorubicin under glycolytic conditions. Thus, the Warburg transition appears to alleviate requirements for cellular functions that buffer doxorubicin cytotoxicity in a respiratory context.

  • Measuring Gene Expression Part 3 Key Steps in Microarray Analysis
    Measuring Gene Expression Part 3 David Wishart Bioinformatics 301 [email protected] Key Steps in Microarray Analysis • Quality Control (checking microarrays for errors or problems) • Image Processing – Gridding – Segmentation (peak picking) – Data Extraction (intensity, QC) • Data Analysis and Data Mining Comet Tailing • Often caused by insufficiently rapid immersion of the slides in the succinic anhydride blocking solution. Uneven Spotting/Blotting • Problems with print tips or with overly viscous solution • Problems with humidity in spottiing chamber High Background • Insufficient Blocking • Precipitation of labelled probe Gridding Errors Spotting errors Uneven hybridization Gridding errors Key Steps in Microarray Analysis • Quality Control (checking microarrays for errors or problems) • Image Processing – Gridding – Segmentation (spot picking) – Data Extraction (intensity, QC) • Data Analysis and Data Mining Microarray Scanning PMT Pinhole Detector lens Laser Beam-splitter Objective Lens Dye Glass Slide Microarray Principles Laser 1 Laser 2 Green channel Red channel Scan and detect with overlay images Image process confocal laser system and normalize and analyze Microarray Images • Resolution – standard 10µm [currently, max 5µm] – 100µm spot on chip = 10 pixels in diameter • Image format – TIFF (tagged image file format) 16 bit (64K grey levels) – 1cm x 1cm image at 16 bit = 2Mb (uncompressed) – other formats exist i.e. SCN (Stanford University) • Separate image for each fluorescent sample – channel 1, channel 2, etc. Image

  • Adverse Childhood Experiences, Epigenetic Measures, and Obesity in Youth
    ORIGINAL www.jpeds.com • THE JOURNAL OF PEDIATRICS ARTICLES Adverse Childhood Experiences, Epigenetic Measures, and Obesity in Youth Joan Kaufman, PhD1,2,3, Janitza L. Montalvo-Ortiz, PhD3, Hannah Holbrook,BA4, Kerry O'Loughlin,BA4, Catherine Orr, PhD4, Catherine Kearney,MA1, Bao-Zhu Yang, PhD3, Tao Wang, PhD5,6, Hongyu Zhao, PhD5, Robert Althoff, MD, PhD4, Hugh Garavan, PhD4, Joel Gelernter,MD3,7, and James Hudziak,MD4 Objective To determine if measures of adverse childhood experiences and DNA methylation relate to indices of obesity in youth. Study design Participants were derived from a cohort of 321 8 to 15-year-old children recruited for an investi- gation examining risk and resilience and psychiatric outcomes in maltreated children. Assessments of obesity were collected as an add-on for a subset of 234 participants (56% female; 52% maltreated). Illumina arrays were used to examine whole genome epigenetic predictors of obesity in saliva DNA. For analytic purposes, the cohort ana- lyzed in the first batch comprised the discovery sample (n = 160), and the cohort analyzed in the second batch the replication sample (n = 74). Results After controlling for race, sex, age, cell heterogeneity, 3 principal components, and whole genome testing, 10 methylation sites were found to interact with adverse childhood experiences to predict cross-sectional mea- sures of body mass index, and an additional 6 sites were found to exert a main effect in predicting body mass index (P < 5.0 × 10−7, all comparisons). Eight of the methylation sites were in genes previously associated with obesity risk (eg, PCK2, CxCl10, BCAT1, HID1, PRDM16, MADD, PXDN, GALE), with several of the findings from the dis- covery data set replicated in the second cohort.

    Supporting Information Friedman et al. 10.1073/pnas.0812446106 SI Results and Discussion intronic miR genes in these protein-coding genes. Because in General Phenotype of Dicer-PCKO Mice. Dicer-PCKO mice had many many cases the exact borders of the protein-coding genes are defects in additional to inner ear defects. Many of them died unknown, we searched for miR genes up to 10 kb from the around birth, and although they were born at a similar size to hosting-gene ends. Out of the 488 mouse miR genes included in their littermate heterozygote siblings, after a few weeks the miRBase release 12.0, 192 mouse miR genes were found as surviving mutants were smaller than their heterozygote siblings located inside (distance 0) or in the vicinity of the protein-coding (see Fig. 1A) and exhibited typical defects, which enabled their genes that are expressed in the P2 cochlear and vestibular SE identification even before genotyping, including typical alopecia (Table S2). Some coding genes include huge clusters of miRNAs (in particular on the nape of the neck), partially closed eyelids (e.g., Sfmbt2). Other genes listed in Table S2 as coding genes are [supporting information (SI) Fig. S1 A and C], eye defects, and actually predicted, as their transcript was detected in cells, but weakness of the rear legs that were twisted backwards (data not the predicted encoded protein has not been identified yet, and shown). However, while all of the mutant mice tested exhibited some of them may be noncoding RNAs. Only a single protein- similar deafness and stereocilia malformation in inner ear HCs, coding gene that is differentially expressed in the cochlear and other defects were variable in their severity.
