Western blot testing of human 1) SKOV3 and 2) HeLa lysate with VNN1 antibody at 0.5ug/ml. Expected molecular weight: ~56 kDa (unmodified) and ~70 kDa (glycosylated). Description Pantetheinase, also called Vanin 1, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the VNN1 gene. This gene encodes a member of the vanin family of proteins, which share extensive sequence similarity with each other, and also with biotinidase. The family includes secreted and membrane-associated proteins, a few of which have been reported to participate in hematopoietic cell trafficking. No biotinidase activity has been demonstrated for any of the vanin proteins, however, they possess pantetheinase activity, which may play a role in oxidative-stress response. This protein, like its mouse homolog, is likely a GPI-anchored cell surface molecule. The mouse protein is expressed by the perivascular thymic stromal cells and regulates migration of T-cell progenitors to the thymus. This gene lies in close proximity to, and in the same transcriptional orientation as, two other vanin genes on chromosome 6q23-q24. Application Notes Differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity may require the VNN1 antibody to be titrated for optimal performance. Immunogen Amino acids Q22-K192 from the human protein were used as the immunogen for the VNN1 antibody. Storage After reconstitution, the VNN1 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. References (1) Ordering: Phone:858.663.9055 | Fax:1.267.821.0800 | Email:[email protected] Copyright © NSJ Bioreagents.

  • Genome-Wide Expression Profiling Establishes Novel Modulatory Roles
    Batra et al. BMC Genomics (2017) 18:252 DOI 10.1186/s12864-017-3635-4 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Genome-wide expression profiling establishes novel modulatory roles of vitamin C in THP-1 human monocytic cell line Sakshi Dhingra Batra, Malobi Nandi, Kriti Sikri and Jaya Sivaswami Tyagi* Abstract Background: Vitamin C (vit C) is an essential dietary nutrient, which is a potent antioxidant, a free radical scavenger and functions as a cofactor in many enzymatic reactions. Vit C is also considered to enhance the immune effector function of macrophages, which are regarded to be the first line of defence in response to any pathogen. The THP- 1 cell line is widely used for studying macrophage functions and for analyzing host cell-pathogen interactions. Results: We performed a genome-wide temporal gene expression and functional enrichment analysis of THP-1 cells treated with 100 μM of vit C, a physiologically relevant concentration of the vitamin. Modulatory effects of vitamin C on THP-1 cells were revealed by differential expression of genes starting from 8 h onwards. The number of differentially expressed genes peaked at the earliest time-point i.e. 8 h followed by temporal decline till 96 h. Further, functional enrichment analysis based on statistically stringent criteria revealed a gamut of functional responses, namely, ‘Regulation of gene expression’, ‘Signal transduction’, ‘Cell cycle’, ‘Immune system process’, ‘cAMP metabolic process’, ‘Cholesterol transport’ and ‘Ion homeostasis’. A comparative analysis of vit C-mediated modulation of gene expression data in THP-1cells and human skin fibroblasts disclosed an overlap in certain functional processes such as ‘Regulation of transcription’, ‘Cell cycle’ and ‘Extracellular matrix organization’, and THP-1 specific responses, namely, ‘Regulation of gene expression’ and ‘Ion homeostasis’.

  • Identification of Novel Regulatory Genes in Acetaminophen
    IDENTIFICATION OF NOVEL REGULATORY GENES IN ACETAMINOPHEN INDUCED HEPATOCYTE TOXICITY BY A GENOME-WIDE CRISPR/CAS9 SCREEN A THESIS IN Cell Biology and Biophysics and Bioinformatics Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By KATHERINE ANNE SHORTT B.S, Indiana University, Bloomington, 2011 M.S, University of Missouri, Kansas City, 2014 Kansas City, Missouri 2018 © 2018 Katherine Shortt All Rights Reserved IDENTIFICATION OF NOVEL REGULATORY GENES IN ACETAMINOPHEN INDUCED HEPATOCYTE TOXICITY BY A GENOME-WIDE CRISPR/CAS9 SCREEN Katherine Anne Shortt, Candidate for the Doctor of Philosophy degree, University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2018 ABSTRACT Acetaminophen (APAP) is a commonly used analgesic responsible for over 56,000 overdose-related emergency room visits annually. A long asymptomatic period and limited treatment options result in a high rate of liver failure, generally resulting in either organ transplant or mortality. The underlying molecular mechanisms of injury are not well understood and effective therapy is limited. Identification of previously unknown genetic risk factors would provide new mechanistic insights and new therapeutic targets for APAP induced hepatocyte toxicity or liver injury. This study used a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen to evaluate genes that are protective against or cause susceptibility to APAP-induced liver injury. HuH7 human hepatocellular carcinoma cells containing CRISPR/Cas9 gene knockouts were treated with 15mM APAP for 30 minutes to 4 days. A gene expression profile was developed based on the 1) top screening hits, 2) overlap with gene expression data of APAP overdosed human patients, and 3) biological interpretation including assessment of known and suspected iii APAP-associated genes and their therapeutic potential, predicted affected biological pathways, and functionally validated candidate genes.

  • Functional Genomics of the VNN1 Gene
    Functional genomics of the VNN1 gene Luke Aris Diepeveen BSc, Hons (Genetics) School of Chemistry and Biochemistry University of Western Australia Supervisors: W/Prof Lawrence Abraham A/Prof Daniela Ulgiati This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Western Australia July 2013 Declaration I declare that this thesis describes my own research and work not previously submitted at any other university. Luke Aris Diepeveen 2 Abstract Chromatin accessibility is considered an excellent measure of the functionality of genetic variants (Mikkelson et al ., 2007; Birney et al ., 2010; Pang et al ., 2013). It is common to use reporter gene and gel shift assays for determining the functionality of genetic variants, however, both approaches are limited by scalability and are lacking in chromatin context. The present study uses a novel next-gen sequencing-based approach (‘CHA-seq’) which translates Chromatin Accessibility by Real-Time PCR (CHART- PCR) into a robust method in order to assess allele-specific differences in chromatin arrangement across an extended genomic region . CHA-seq is a means of simultaneously sequencing genetic variants, mapping nucleosomes and nuclease hypersensitivity sites, and assessing SNP functionality. Genetic variants within the VNN1 gene have been associated with cardiovascular disease (Jacobo-Albavera et al ., 2012; Fava et al ., 2010; Zhu and Cooper, 2007), and as such, VNN1 represents an ideal gene model for functional assessment. Göring et al . (2007) identified two candidate functional SNPs, namely -137 (rs4897612) and -587 (rs2050153), in the VNN1 gene promoter that have been experimentally validated using chromatin arrangement assays as part of this current research.

    Admixture Mapping Provides Evidence of Association of the VNN1 Gene with Hypertension Xiaofeng Zhu1*, Richard S. Cooper2 1 Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, School of Medicine, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, United States of America, 2 Department of Preventive Medicine and Epidemiology, Stritch School of Medicine, Loyola University, Maywood, Illinois, United States of America Migration patterns in modern societies have created the opportunity to use population admixture as a strategy to identify susceptibility genes. To implement this strategy, we genotyped a highly informative ancestry marker panel of 2270 single nucleotide polymorphisms in a random population sample of African Americans (N = 1743), European Americans (N = 1000) and Mexican Americans (N = 581). We then examined the evidence for over-transmission of specific loci to cases from one of the two ancestral populations. Hypertension cases and controls were defined based on standard clinical criteria. Both case-only and case-control analyses were performed among African Americans. With the genome-wide markers we replicated the findings identified in our previous admixture mapping study on chromosomes 6 and 21 [1]. For case-control analysis we then genotyped 51 missense SNPs in 36 genes spaced across an 18.3 Mb region. Further analyses demonstrated that the missense SNP rs2272996 (or N131S) in the VNN1 gene was significantly associated with hypertension in African Americans and the association was replicated in Mexican Americans; a non-significant opposite association was observed in European Americans. This SNP also accounted for most of the evidence observed in the admixture analysis on chromosome 6. Despite these encouraging results, susceptibility loci for hypertension have been exceptionally difficult to localize and confirmation by independent studies will be necessary to establish these findings.
