Mouse Arih2 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Arih2 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Arih2 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Arih2 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_011790 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000064145 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 9. 16 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 3 and the TAA stop codon in exon 16 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000013338). 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 Arih2 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-155I7 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: Homozygous inactivation of this gene causes altered dendritic cell physiology, enhanced liver apoptosis, and complete fetal lethality that is partially modified by genetic background. On a mixed genetic background, mice that survive past weaning succumb to a severe multiorgan inflammatory response. Exon 4 starts from about 17.14% 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: 23899 bp, and the size of intron 4 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 2623 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~568 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

No significant tandem repeat is found in the dot plot matrix. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.

No significant high GC-content region is found. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.

  • The UBE2L3 Ubiquitin Conjugating Enzyme: Interplay with Inflammasome Signalling and Bacterial Ubiquitin Ligases
    The UBE2L3 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme: interplay with inflammasome signalling and bacterial ubiquitin ligases Matthew James George Eldridge 2018 Imperial College London Department of Medicine Submitted to Imperial College London for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 Abstract Inflammasome-controlled immune responses such as IL-1β release and pyroptosis play key roles in antimicrobial immunity and are heavily implicated in multiple hereditary autoimmune diseases. Despite extensive knowledge of the mechanisms regulating inflammasome activation, many downstream responses remain poorly understood or uncharacterised. The cysteine protease caspase-1 is the executor of inflammasome responses, therefore identifying and characterising its substrates is vital for better understanding of inflammasome-mediated effector mechanisms. Using unbiased proteomics, the Shenoy grouped identified the ubiquitin conjugating enzyme UBE2L3 as a target of caspase-1. In this work, I have confirmed UBE2L3 as an indirect target of caspase-1 and characterised its role in inflammasomes-mediated immune responses. I show that UBE2L3 functions in the negative regulation of cellular pro-IL-1 via the ubiquitin- proteasome system. Following inflammatory stimuli, UBE2L3 assists in the ubiquitylation and degradation of newly produced pro-IL-1. However, in response to caspase-1 activation, UBE2L3 is itself targeted for degradation by the proteasome in a caspase-1-dependent manner, thereby liberating an additional pool of IL-1 which may be processed and released. UBE2L3 therefore acts a molecular rheostat, conferring caspase-1 an additional level of control over this potent cytokine, ensuring that it is efficiently secreted only in appropriate circumstances. These findings on UBE2L3 have implications for IL-1- driven pathology in hereditary fever syndromes, and autoinflammatory conditions associated with UBE2L3 polymorphisms.

Here, we used paired end RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to explore the transcriptome of Xenopus tropicalis in 23 distinct developmental stages. We determined expression levels of all genes annotated in RefSeq and Ensembl and showed for the first time on a genome-wide scale that, despite a general state of transcriptional silence in the earliest stages of development, approximately 150 genes are tran- scribed prior to the midblastula transition. In addition, our splicing analysis uncovered more than 10,000 novel splice junctions at each stage and revealed that many known genes have additional unannotated isoforms.

Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography. Background The E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase ARIH2 (TRIAD1) is an Ariadne subfamily ligase involved in the polyubiquitination of proteins designated for proteasomal degradation. The TRIAD1 nuclear protein contains an amino-terminal acidic region, a pair of RING fingers, two carboxyl-terminal coiled coil domains and a novel C6HC DRIL/IBR domain located between the RING fingers. Together, the paired RING fingers and DRIL/IBR domain form a highly conserved TRIAD (two RING fingers and DRIL) domain (1).

Genetic networks provide new mechanistic insights into the diversity of species morphology. In this study, we have integrated the MGI, GEO, and miRNA database to analyze the genetic regulatory networks under morphology difference of integument of humans and mice. We found that the gene expression network in the skin is highly divergent between human and mouse.

Coexpression Networks Based on Natural Variation in Human Gene Expression at Baseline and Under Stress Abstract Genes interact in networks to orchestrate cellular processes. Here, we used coexpression networks based on natural variation in gene expression to study the functions and interactions of human genes. We asked how these networks change in response to stress. First, we studied human coexpression networks at baseline. We constructed networks by identifying correlations in expression levels of 8.9 million gene pairs in immortalized B cells from 295 individuals comprising three independent samples. The resulting networks allowed us to infer interactions between biological processes. We used the network to predict the functions of poorly-characterized human genes, and provided some experimental support. Examining genes implicated in disease, we found that IFIH1, a diabetes susceptibility gene, interacts with YES1, which affects glucose transport. Genes predisposing to the same diseases are clustered non-randomly in the network, suggesting that the network may be used to identify candidate genes that influence disease susceptibility.
