Gene expression data were generated using RNA- sequencing from Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex (DLPFC) of 540 individuals, at an average sequence depth of 90M reads. Detailed description of data generation and processing was previously described2 (Mostafavi, Gaiteri et al., under review). Samples were submitted to the Broad Institute’s Genomics Platform for transcriptome analysis following the dUTP protocol with Poly(A) selection developed by Levin and colleagues3. All samples were chosen to pass two initial quality filters: RNA integrity (RIN) score >5 and quantity threshold of 5 ug (and were selected from a larger set of 724 samples). Sequencing was performed on the Illumina HiSeq with 101bp paired-end reads and achieved coverage of 150M reads of the first 12 samples. These 12 samples will serve as a deep coverage reference and included 2 males and 2 females of nonimpaired, mild cognitive impaired, and Alzheimer's cases. The remaining samples were sequenced with target coverage of 50M reads; the mean coverage for the samples passing QC is 95 million reads (median 90 million reads). The libraries were constructed and pooled according to the RIN scores such that similar RIN scores would be pooled together. -
Autism Multiplex Family with 16P11.2P12.2 Microduplication Syndrome in Monozygotic Twins and Distal 16P11.2 Deletion in Their Brother
European Journal of Human Genetics (2012) 20, 540–546 & 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1018-4813/12 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE Autism multiplex family with 16p11.2p12.2 microduplication syndrome in monozygotic twins and distal 16p11.2 deletion in their brother Anne-Claude Tabet1,2,3,4, Marion Pilorge2,3,4, Richard Delorme5,6,Fre´de´rique Amsellem5,6, Jean-Marc Pinard7, Marion Leboyer6,8,9, Alain Verloes10, Brigitte Benzacken1,11,12 and Catalina Betancur*,2,3,4 The pericentromeric region of chromosome 16p is rich in segmental duplications that predispose to rearrangements through non-allelic homologous recombination. Several recurrent copy number variations have been described recently in chromosome 16p. 16p11.2 rearrangements (29.5–30.1 Mb) are associated with autism, intellectual disability (ID) and other neurodevelopmental disorders. Another recognizable but less common microdeletion syndrome in 16p11.2p12.2 (21.4 to 28.5–30.1 Mb) has been described in six individuals with ID, whereas apparently reciprocal duplications, studied by standard cytogenetic and fluorescence in situ hybridization techniques, have been reported in three patients with autism spectrum disorders. Here, we report a multiplex family with three boys affected with autism, including two monozygotic twins carrying a de novo 16p11.2p12.2 duplication of 8.95 Mb (21.28–30.23 Mb) characterized by single-nucleotide polymorphism array, encompassing both the 16p11.2 and 16p11.2p12.2 regions. The twins exhibited autism, severe ID, and dysmorphic features, including a triangular face, deep-set eyes, large and prominent nasal bridge, and tall, slender build. The eldest brother presented with autism, mild ID, early-onset obesity and normal craniofacial features, and carried a smaller, overlapping 16p11.2 microdeletion of 847 kb (28.40–29.25 Mb), inherited from his apparently healthy father. -

ABSTRACT Pleckstrin homology (PH) domains are presumed to bind phosphoinositides (PIPs), but specific interaction with and regulation by PIPs for most PH domain-containing proteins are unclear. Here we employed a single-molecule pulldown assay to study interactions of lipid vesicles with full-length proteins in mammalian whole cell lysates. -

Associated 16P11.2 Deletion in Drosophila Melanogaster
ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-04882-6 OPEN Pervasive genetic interactions modulate neurodevelopmental defects of the autism- associated 16p11.2 deletion in Drosophila melanogaster Janani Iyer1, Mayanglambam Dhruba Singh1, Matthew Jensen1,2, Payal Patel 1, Lucilla Pizzo1, Emily Huber1, Haley Koerselman3, Alexis T. Weiner 1, Paola Lepanto4, Komal Vadodaria1, Alexis Kubina1, Qingyu Wang 1,2, Abigail Talbert1, Sneha Yennawar1, Jose Badano 4, J. Robert Manak3,5, Melissa M. Rolls1, Arjun Krishnan6,7 & 1234567890():,; Santhosh Girirajan 1,2,8 As opposed to syndromic CNVs caused by single genes, extensive phenotypic heterogeneity in variably-expressive CNVs complicates disease gene discovery and functional evaluation. Here, we propose a complex interaction model for pathogenicity of the autism-associated 16p11.2 deletion, where CNV genes interact with each other in conserved pathways to modulate expression of the phenotype. Using multiple quantitative methods in Drosophila RNAi lines, we identify a range of neurodevelopmental phenotypes for knockdown of indi- vidual 16p11.2 homologs in different tissues. We test 565 pairwise knockdowns in the developing eye, and identify 24 interactions between pairs of 16p11.2 homologs and 46 interactions between 16p11.2 homologs and neurodevelopmental genes that suppress or enhance cell proliferation phenotypes compared to one-hit knockdowns. These interac- tions within cell proliferation pathways are also enriched in a human brain-specific network, providing translational relevance in humans. Our study indicates a role for pervasive genetic interactions within CNVs towards cellular and developmental phenotypes. 1 Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802, USA. 2 Bioinformatics and Genomics Program, The Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802, USA. -

Mouse Osbpl8 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Osbpl8 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Osbpl8 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Osbpl8 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_175489 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000020189 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 10. 24 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TAG stop codon in exon 24 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000105275). 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 Osbpl8 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-456P17 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 gene trap allele exhibit elevated of HDL and gender-specific alterations in lipid metabolism. Exon 5 starts from about 8.17% 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: 21997 bp, and the size of intron 5 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 7421 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~571 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.
