Glycoprotein hormones are heterodimers consisting of a common alpha subunit and an unique beta subunit which confers biological specificity. CG is produced by the trophoblastic cells of the placenta and stimulates the ovaries to synthesize the steroids that are essential for the maintenance of pregnancy. The beta subunit of CG is encoded by 6 genes which are arranged in tandem and inverted pairs on chromosome 19q13.3 and contiguous with the luteinizing hormone beta subunit gene. [provided by RefSeq]. Function: Stimulates the ovaries to synthesize the steroids that are essential for the maintenance of pregnancy. Subunit: Heterodimer of a common alpha chain and a unique beta chain which confers biological specificity to thyrotropin, lutropin, follitropin and gonadotropin.

Abstract Background: Low nucleotide divergence between human and chimpanzee does not sufficiently explain the species-specific morphological, physiological and behavioral traits. As gene duplication is a major prerequisite for the emergence of new genes and novel biological processes, comparative studies of human and chimpanzee duplicated genes may assist in understanding the mechanisms behind primate evolution.

The hormone-specific β subunit is encoded by six allelic genes: CGB3, CGB5, CGB6, CGB7, CGB8, and CGB9, mapped to the 19q13.32 locus. This gene cluster also encompasses the CGB1 and CGB2 genes, which were originally considered to be pseudogenes, but as documented by several studies are transcriptionally active. Even though the protein products of these genes have not yet been identified, based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database analysis we showed that the mutual presence of CGB1 and CGB2 transcripts is a characteristic feature of cancers of different origin, including bladder urothelial carcinoma, cervical squamous cell carcinoma, esophageal carcinoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma, lung squamous cell carcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, rectum adenocacinoma, testis germ cell tumors, thymoma, uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma and uterine carcinosarcoma.

In the marmoset pituitary, the expression of the b-subunit (CGB) gene is regulated similar to human LH b-subunit, but its placental regulation is unknown. This study intended to decipher the underlying mechanism of tissue-specific expression of CGB in the marmoset placenta. We identified a new placental transcriptional start site, described a new, previously undiscovered exon, and define a novel placental core promoter in the marmoset CGB gene. This promoter contains a TATA box and binding sites for activating protein 2 and selective promoter factor 1, the latter acting synergistically by forming a regulation cassette. Differential first exon usage directed the tissue-specific expression. Methylation analyses revealed a tissue-specific pattern in the placental promoter indicating additional epigenetic regulation of gene expression.

Received: 1 March 2013; in revised form: 28 March 2013 / Accepted: 9 May 2013 / Published: 17 June 2013 Abstract: Human chorionic gonadotropin beta subunit (CGB) is a marker of pregnancy as well as trophoblastic and nontrophoblastic tumors. CGB is encoded by a cluster of six genes, of which type II genes (CGB3/9, 5 and 8) have been shown to be upregulated in relation to type I genes (CGB6/7) in both placentas and tumors. Recent studies revealed that CGB1 and CGB2, originally considered as pseudogenes, might also be active, however, the protein products of these genes have not yet been identified. Our study demonstrates the presence of CGB1 and CGB2 transcripts in ovarian carcinomas. While CGB1 and CGB2 gene activation was not detected in normal ovaries lacking cancerous development, our study demonstrates the presence of CGB1 and CGB2 transcripts in 41% of analyzed ovarian cancer cases.

Email: [email protected] Doi: https://doi.org/10.36255/exonpublications.bioinformatics.2021.ch1 Abstract: Whole transcriptome omics experiments allow for the study of gene regulation at the cellular level. During analysis and interpretation of omics data, false discovery can occur. To minimize false discovery and identify true significant cases, multi-test correction has been introduced to bioinformatics algorithms. The scientific literature offers a huge collection of information that can be parsed using a web Application Programming Interface. Gene selection by text mining can rank information according to its importance while taking into account the most recent updates in scientific literature. The integration of text mining selection in biologi- cal big data, such as transcriptome experiments including single cell transcrip- tome, can achieve an important dimensional reduction of the data without any statistical hypothesis. This avoids false discoveries regarding the molecules of interest. Hydatidiform moles and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) nephropathy are the two examples presented in this chapter, which demonstrate the considerable value of these analytical methods to prove the concept. The best FSGS markers expressed can be displayed by building an interactive online web interface as a web resource based on the glomerular cell transcriptome.
