Mouse Tmem106a Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Tmem106a Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Tmem106a knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Tmem106a gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_144830 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000034947 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 11. 9 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 3 and the TGA stop codon in exon 9 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000039581). Exon 3~9 will be selected as target site. Cas9 and gRNA will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for KO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Exon 3~9 covers 100.0% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~8403 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

Tandem repeats are found in the dot plot matrix. The gRNA site is selected outside of these tandem repeats. Overview of the Dot Plot (down) Window size: 15 bp Forward Reverse Complement Sequence 12 Note: The 2000 bp section downstream of stop codon is aligned with itself to determine if there are tandem repeats. No significant tandem repeat is found in the dot plot matrix. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.

Abstract TMEM106B is an integral membrane protein of late endosomes and lysosomes involved in neuronal function, its over-expression being associated with familial frontotemporal lobar degeneration, and under-expression linked to hypomyelination. It has also been identified in multiple screens for host proteins required for productive SARS-CoV2 infection. Because standard approaches to understand TMEM106B at the sequence level find no homology to other proteins, it has remained a protein of unknown function.

Background Next to BRCA1 gene 1 (NBR1) protein is known for its encoding gene proximity to the BRCA1 tumor suppressor gene (1,2). N-terminal Phox and Bem1p (PB1) domains of NBR1 mediate its interaction with muscle specific titin kinase (3,4) and scaffolding protein p62 (4). NBR1 plays a role in autophagy by facilitating the autophagosomal degradation of ubiquitinated proteins independently and also in concert with p62 (5,6). 1. Campbell, I.G. et al.

Synonyms TMEM106A Antibody, Transmembrane protein 106A Application Note Anti-TMEM106A Antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, Western Blotting, Immunohistochemistry and Immunofluorescence. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band at approximately 29 kDa in Western Blots of specific cell lysates and tissues. Background Transmembrane protein 106A (TMEM106A) is a single-pass transmembrane protein that is closely related to TMEM106B, a protein that is thought to be a novel risk factor for frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), a group of clinically, pathologically and genetically heterogeneous disorders associated with atrophy in the frontal lobe and temporal lobe of the brain. The actual roles of TMEM106A and TMEM106B are still undetermined; however, as TMEM106B is involved in FTLD, it is possible that TMEM106A may also be a risk factor for FTLD.

Increased Expression of Frontotemporal Dementia Risk Factor Tmem106b Alters Lysosomal and Autophagosomal Pathways Abstract Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is an important cause of dementia in individuals under age 65. Common variants in the TMEM106B gene were previously discovered by genome-wide association (GWAS) to confer genetic risk for FTLD-TDP, the largest neuropathological subset of FTLD (p=1x10-11, OR=1.6). Prior to its discovery in the GWAS, TMEM106B, or Transmembrane Protein 106B, was uncharacterized. To further understand the role of TMEM106B in disease pathogenesis, we used immortalized as well as primary neurons to assess the cell biological effects of disease-relevant levels of TMEM106B overexpression and the interaction of TMEM106B with additional disease-associated proteins. We also employed immunostaining to assess its expression pattern in human brain from controls and FTLD cases. We discovered that TMEM106B is a highly glycosylated, Type II late endosomal/lysosomal transmembrane protein. We found that it is expressed by neurons, glia, and peri-vascular cells in disease- affected and unaffected regions of human brain from normal controls in a cytoplasmic, perikaryal distribution.

  • SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL Supplementary Fig. S1. LD Mice Used in This Study Accumulate Polyglucosan Inclusions (Lafora Bodies) in the Brain
    1 SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL Supplementary Fig. S1. LD mice used in this study accumulate polyglucosan inclusions (Lafora bodies) in the brain. Samples from the hippocampus of five months old control, Epm2a-/- (lacking laforin) and Epm2b-/- mice (lacking malin) were stained with periodic acid Schiff reagent (PAS staining), which colors polysaccharide granules in red. Bar: 50 m. Supplementary Fig. S2. Principal component analysis (PCA) representing the first two components with the biggest level of phenotypic variability. Samples 1_S1 to 4_S4 corresponded to control, 5_S5, 6_S6 and 8_S8 to Epm2a-/- and 9_S9 to 12_S12 to Epm2b- /- samples, of animals of 16 months of age respectively. Supplementary Table S1.

  • Transmembrane Protein 106A Activates Mouse Peritoneal Macrophages Via the MAPK and NF-Κb Signaling Pathways
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Transmembrane protein 106a activates mouse peritoneal macrophages via the MAPK and Received: 06 January 2015 Accepted: 30 June 2015 NF-κB signaling pathways Published: 28 July 2015 Hui Dai1, Dong Xu1,2, Jing Su3, Jingyuan Jang1 & Yingyu Chen1,2 The M1 and M2 states of macrophage are the two extremes of a physiologic/phenotypic continuum that is dynamically influenced by environmental signals. Molecular mechanism analysis indicated that they gain M1 and M2-related functions after encountering specific ligands in the tissue environment. Here, we first characterized the previously unknown immunobiological functions of mouse Tmem106a. This protein is abundantly expressed on the surface of mouse macrophages. Activation of Tmem106a by stimulation with anti-Tmem106a upregulated the expression of CD80, CD86, CD69 and MHC II on macrophage, and induced the release of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, CCL2 and NO, but not IL-10. These effects were largely abrogated by pretreatment with siRNA against Tmem106a. Notably, anti-Tmem106a significantly increased iNOS production and phosphorylation of STAT1, and had no effect on the ARGINASE-1 or p-STAT6 level, indicating that anti-Tmem106a activated macrophages and polarized them into M1-like macrophages. Further analysis found that anti-Tmem106a stimulation increased phosphorylation of ERK-1/2, JNK, p38 MAPK, NF-κB p65 and IKKα/β, and promoted nuclear translocation of the cytosolic NF-κB p65 subunit. Collectively, these data suggest that mouse Tmem106a might be a new trigger of macrophage activation and have some influence toward the M1 state through the activation of the MAPKs and NF-κB pathway.
