Next Generation Mendelian Genetics: Familial Combined Hyperlipidemia

ABSTRACT:

The NHGRI Next Generation Mendelian Genetics project uses exome resequencing to identify variants in unsolved Mendelian diseases.

The research study procedures included the collection of a fasting blood sample, 2 medical history/life style questionnaires and a measurement of subjects' waist circumference that were completed many years ago. Blood samples were analyzed for metabolic markers including cholesterol, HDL, triglycerides and APOE. Genetic tests targeted known and novel genes and polymorphisms associated with carotid artery disease.

Expression profiling of mendelian and non-mendelian F1 in gpr-1 overexpressing worms.

Project description:According to Mendel's laws, each parent makes an equal genetic contribution to an offspring in sexually reproducing organisms. The bipolar mitotic spindle controls the equal segregation of paternal and maternal chromosomes during the first cell division. By overexpression of a single protein, GPR-1, in the maternal strain we changed the structure of the mitotic spindle from bipolar to two monopolar spindles to segregate maternal and paternal chromosomes into different cell lineages, resulting in non-mendelian segregation for entire genomes. To follow maternal and paternal segregation of the chromosomes we used red and green histone markers respectively. By mating gpr-1-overexpressing hermaphrodites with wild-type males, mendelian F1 worms that express both markers simultaneously in all tissues and non-mendelian F1 worms that express red and green markers in different tissues will be produced representing embryos with bipolar and embryos with two monopolar spindles. Thus, we show that the rules of genetic inheritance can be changed, which may inspire the formation of a new field of synthetic zoology. Transcriptional profiling was done to investigate the differences in gene expression between mendelian and non-mendelian offspring. Approximately 60 adult worms were used per sample. Four conditions were collected: hermaphrodites of the paternal strain, hermaphrodites of the maternal strain, co-segregating (mendelian) F1 after crossing of parental strains, and (non-mendelian) F1 that segregates the paternal genotype to body wall muscle, intestine + germline and the maternal genotype to the nervous system after crossing of parental strains.

Next Generation Mendelian Genetics: Muscle Hypertrophy

Project description:The NHGRI Next Generation Mendelian Genetics project uses exome resequencing to identify variants in unsolved Mendelian diseases. Samples were collected from a single, multi-generational family with the same phenotype of exaggerated muscular development (muscular hypertrophy) and strength characterized by reduced fat pad thickness under the skin. All family members deny "body building" activities, and are so far negative for known gene mutation that have been identified as associated with excessive muscle development. All family members have examples of demonstrating extraordinary strength occurring both in childhood and old age. No negative associated phenotype traits with the muscle hypertrophy phenotype have been identified.

Next Generation Mendelian Genetics: Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Type VIII

Project description:The NHGRI Next Generation Mendelian Genetics project uses exome resequencing to identify variants in unsolved Mendelian diseases. Ehlers-Danlos syndrome Type VIII is a dominantly inherited connective tissue disorder that is distinguished from other forms of EDS by significant early-onset periodontal disease. Although the clinical phenotype is well delineated, the underlying molecular basis remains unknown. By studying a large family of affected and unaffected individuals with the EDS VIII by exome sequencing, we hope to identify unique regions of homology to assist in identifying the causative gene.

Next Generation Mendelian Genetics: Familial Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis

Project description:The NHGRI Next Generation Mendelian Genetics project uses exome resequencing to identify variants in unsolved Mendelian diseases. Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (fHLH) is a serious immune disorder that results from defective cytotoxic lymphocyte function. Autosomal recessive mutations in PFP1, UNC13D, STX11, STBP2, or RAB27, and hemizygous mutations in SH2D1A or BIRC4, account for known causes of the disease, but 30-70% of patients in North America lack a known genetic etiology. This project was designed to identify additional genetic abnormalities from HLH patients. The exome sequences of four unrelated individuals with a diagnosis of HLH, but without mutations in genes known to cause disease, were obtained by massively parallel DNA sequencing.
