PRDM9 in Der Primatenevolution Genomweite Charakterisierung der putativen Rekombinationshotspots zweier Makakenarten - PRDM9 in der Primatenevolution Dissertation zur Erlangung des Grades Doktor der Naturwissenschaften am Fachbereich Biologie der Johannes Gutenberg-Universität in Mainz Sacha Heerschop geboren am 11.12.1987 in Sneek, Niederlande Mainz, 2019 Dekan: 1. Berichterstatter: 2. Berichterstatter: Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 16.04.2020 Danksagung Zusammenfassung Die Speziation ist ein Prozess, der in der Keimbahn ansetzt. Veränderungen, die sich dort akkumulieren, werden an die nächsten Generationen weitergegeben und sind Ansatzpunkte der Evolution. PRDM9 stellt einen in trans wirksamen Regulator der Keimbahn-spezifischen Rekombination dar, der als putatives Speziationsgen gehandelt wird. Das Protein bestimmt während der Meiose I die Lokalisation und Markierung der Rekombinationshotspots über eine Interaktion seiner Zinkfingerdomäne mit den entsprechenden DNA-Zielstrukturen. Die DNA-bindenden Aminosäuren des PRDM9 weisen Signaturen positiver Selektion auf. Die dadurch schnelle Evolution und der kontinuierliche Abbau von Rekombinationshotspots können möglicherweise Grund für die Hybridsterilität bei Mäusen sein. Ein möglicher Zusammenhang von PRDM9 mit dem Speziationsprozess stellt den theoretischen Überbau der vorgestellten Arbeiten dar. Vor dem Hintergrund bekannter Genomsequenzen der rezent divergierenden Schwestergruppen, Macaca mulatta und Macaca fascicularis, wurden genomweit die Rekombinationshotspots auf Basis der Bindungseigenschaften des Proteins PRDM9 vergleichend untersucht. Die explorative Datenanalyse der Chromatinimmuno- präzipitation weist viele Gemeinsamkeiten der PRDM9-Zielstrukturen zwischen den zwei Makakenarten bezüglich der Eigenschaften, wie GC-Gehalt, Motiv und Lokalisation entlang der Chromosomen, auf. Dennoch überlappen die Loci selbst kaum. Einige Bindungsstellen sind in und nah bei Genen zu finden, die mit der akuten lymphatischen Leukämie (ALL) assoziiert werden, wobei ein Zusammenhang zwischen der ALL und PRDM9 bereits bekannt ist. Dies und eine Verknüpfung PRDM9s mit piRNA-Clustern (Piwi-interacting RNA-Cluster) könnten auf unbekannte Funktionen hinweisen. Zu den weiteren Projekten gehören die Charakterisierung strepsirrhiner PRDM9- Zinkfingerdomänen von Daubentonia madagascariensis als Vertreter der tiefsten Verzweigung in der Divergenz madagassischer Lemuren und die Datierung des Duplikationsereignisses, das zu dem aus PRDM9 entstandenen PRDM7 führte, im Stammbaum der Primaten. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass PRDM7 auf der Linie zum letzten gemeinsamen Vorfahren der Catarrhini und nach Abspaltung der Platyrrhini entstanden ist. Somit ist die Duplikation des PRDM9-Gens deutlich jünger als bisher angenommen. Die phylogenetische Baumrekonstruktion auf Basis des mit strepsirrhinen Zinkfinger- domänen erweiterten Datensatzes spiegelt die Phylogenie der Primaten wider und spaltet sich in drei Cluster mit Vertretern der Strepsirrhini, Tarsier und Anthropoidea auf.

  • Susceptible Gene of Stasis-Stagnation Constitution from Genome-Wide
    Huang et al. BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine (2015) 15:229 DOI 10.1186/s12906-015-0761-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Susceptible gene of stasis-stagnation constitution from genome-wide association study related to cardiovascular disturbance and possible regulated traditional Chinese medicine Kuo-Chin Huang1,2,4, Hung-Jin Huang3, Ching-Chu Chen4,5, Chwen-Tzuei Chang4,5,Tzu-YuanWang4,5, Rong-Hsing Chen4,5, Yu-Chian Chen6,7,8* and Fuu-Jen Tsai4,6,9* Abstract Background: This study identified susceptible loci related to the Yu-Zhi (YZ) constitution, which indicates stasis-stagnation, found in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in patients with type 2 diabetes and possible regulated traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) using docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Methods: Non-aboriginal Taiwanese with type 2 diabetes were recruited. Components of the YZ constitution were assessed by a self-reported questionnaire. Genome-wide SNP genotypes were obtained using the Illumina HumanHap550 platform. The world’s largest TCM database (http://tcm.cmu.edu.tw/) was employed to investigate potential compounds for PON2 interactions. Results: The study involved 1,021 unrelated individuals with type 2 diabetes. Genotyping data were obtained from 947 of the 1,021 participants. The GWAS identified 22 susceptible single nucleotide polymorphisms on 13 regions of 11 chromosomes for the YZ constitution. Genotypic distribution showed that PON2 on chromosome 7 was most significantly associated with the risk of the YZ constitution. Docking and MD simulation indicated 13-hydroxy-(9E_11E)-octadecadienoic acid was the most stable TCM ligand. Conclusions: Risk loci occurred in PON2, which has antioxidant properties that might protect against atherosclerosis and hyperglycemia, showing it is a susceptible gene for the YZ constitution and possible regulation by 13-hydroxy-(9E_11E)-octadecadienoic acid.

Minden a, a Ontario Cancer Institute/Princess Margaret Hospital, 610 University Avenue 9-111, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5G 2M9 b Pathology and Molecular Medicine, Henderson General Hospital, Hamilton, Ontario, ON L8V 1A1, Canada Received 27 July 2007; received in revised form 19 November 2007; accepted 20 November 2007 Available online 26 December 2007 Abstract The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor family contains key regulators of cellular proliferation and differentiation as well as the suspected oncoproteins Tal1 and Lyl1. Tal1 and Lyl1 are aberrantly over-expressed in leukemia as a result of chromosomal translocations, or other genetic or epigenetic events. Protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions described so far are mediated by their highly homologous bHLH domains, while little is known about the function of other protein domains. Hetero-dimers of Tal1 and Lyl1 with E2A or HEB, decrease the rate of E2A or HEB homo-dimer formation and are poor activators of transcription. In vitro, these hetero-dimers also recognize different binding sites from homo-dimer complexes, which may also lead to inappropriate activation or repression of promoters in vivo. Both mechanisms are thought to contribute to the oncogenic potential of Tal1 and Lyl1. Despite their bHLH structural similarity, accumulating evidence suggests that Tal1 and Lyl1 target different genes. This raises the possibility that domains flanking the bHLH region, which are distinct in the two proteins, may participate in target recognition.
