Cardiac Enrichment of Mutant Calmodulin Protein in a Murine Model of a Human Calmodulinopathy

ABSTRACT: Heterozygosity for missense mutations in one of 3 seemingly redundant calmodulin (CaM)-encoding genes can cause life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias, suggesting that small fractions of mutant CaM protein suffice to cause a severe phenotype. However, the exact molar ratios of wildtype to mutant CaM protein in calmodulinopathy hearts remain unknown. The aim of the present study was to directly quantitate mutant versus wildtype CaM transcript and protein levels in hearts of knock-in mice harboring the p.N98S mutation in the Calm1 gene. We found that the transcripts from the mutant Calm1 allele were the least abundantly expressed Calm transcripts in both hetero- and homozygous mutant hearts, while mutant hearts accumulate high levels of N98S-CaM protein in a Calm1N98S allele dosage-dependent manner, exceeding those of wildtype CaM protein. We further show that the severity of the electrophysiological phenotype incrementally increases with the graded increase in the mutant-to-wildtype CaM protein expression ratio seen in homozygous versus heterozygous mutant mice. We finally show a decrease in N98S-CaM protein degradation, suggesting that mutant CaM stabilization contributed to its enrichment in the heart. Our results support a novel mechanism by which a mutation in a single Calm gene can give rise to a severe phenotype.

Antisense oligonucleotide therapy for calmodulinopathy

Project description:Calmodulinopathies are rare inherited arrhythmia syndromes caused by dominant gain of function variants in one of three genes, CALM1, CALM2, and CALM3, which each encode the identical calmodulin (CaM) protein. We hypothesized that antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)-mediated depletion of an affected calmodulin gene would ameliorate disease manifestations, while the other two calmodulin genes would preserve CaM level and function. Here we tested this hypothesis using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocyte (iPSC-CM) and mouse models of CALM1 pathogenic variants. Human CALM1F142L/+ iPSC-CMs exhibited prolonged action potentials, modeling congenital long QT syndrome. CALM1-depleting ASOs did not alter CaM protein level and normalized repolarization of CALM1F142L/+ iPSC-CMs. Similarly, an ASO targeting murine Calm1 depleted Calm1 transcript without affecting CaM protein level. This ASO alleviated drug-induced arrhythmia in CalmN98S/+ mice without causing observable toxicity. These results provide proof-of-concept that ASOs targeting individual calmodulin genes are potentially effective and safe therapies for calmodulinopathies.

Enhancing calmodulin binding to cardiac ryanodine receptor completely inhibits pressure-overload induced hypertrophic signaling

Project description:Purpose: Cardiac hypertrophy is a well-known major risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Dysregulation of intracellular Ca2+ is involved in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy. However, the precise mechanism underlying cardiac hypertrophy remains elusive. Here, we investigated whether pressure-overload induced hypertrophy can be induced by destabilization of cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) through calmodulin (CaM) dissociation and subsequent Ca2+ leakage, and whether it can be genetically rescued by enhancing the binding affinity of CaM to RyR2. Methods: To examine the role of CaM-RyR2 complex in the development of pressure-overload induced cardiac hypertrophy, whole transcriptome analysis using RNA-seq analysis in the hearts from WT and homozygous RyR2V3599K/V3599K (V3599K) mice with or without transverse aortic constriction (TAC) was performed to elucidate the RyR2 signaling pathway in the heart. Results: Gene expression increased in WT (+TAC) hearts compared to WT (-TAC) hearts; however, this increase was not observed in V3599K (+TAC) hearts. Conclusions: Enhanced CaM binding to RyR2 decreased expression of hypertrophy-related genes.

Expression data from Foxl2 wild-type and mutant ovaries and testes

Project description:Foxl2 is a forkhead transcription factor expressed only in the female, but not in the male gonad. We have created mice homozygous mutant for the Foxl2 gene (KO) as well as mice carrying a conditional mutant Foxl2 allele (floxed). The expression profiles of conventional Foxl2 knockout and wildtype ovaries were compared at P3, using the Affy Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array. Adult wildtype and conditional mutant (Foxl2 floxed x RosaCre-EBD treated with tamoxifen) ovaries were compared to adult wildtype testes using the Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array. Both experiments (KO/WT P3 and Mutant/WT/Testis Adult were also compared to each other.)

Transcription profiling of C. elegans dcr-1, unc-32 homozygous mutants vs. coiling unc-32 (wild type) to investidate interference synthesis of small developmental RNAs

Project description:Homozygous mutant dcr-1 animals were analyzed by Affymetrix microarray analysis using whole worm adult animals. The worms was genetically marked with a recessive allele of unc-32 that exhibits a coiler phenotype in unc-32 homozygous null animals. The "wildtype" comparison worm used in this study were coiling unc-32 animals and the dcr-1 deficient animal contained both the dcr-1 and the unc-32 mutations. Worms were picked and pooled for analysis. <br>Wormbase concise description of dcr-1 (DiCer Related): The dcr-1 gene encodes a bidentate ribonuclease that is homologous to E. coli RNAse III; dcr-1 is required both for RNA interference and for synthesis of small developmental RNAs; DCR-1 interacts in vivo with RDE-4, a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) binding protein required for RNAi that interacts with trigger dsRNAs and may function to deliver dsRNAs to DCR-1 for endonucleolytic processing.

A Cell Type-Specific Approach to Elucidate the Role of miR-96 in Inner Ear Hair Cells

Project description:Mutations in miRNA-96, a microRNA expressed within the hair cells (HCs) of the inner ear, result in progressive hearing loss in both mouse models and humans. While previous studies have delved into miR-96 transcriptional cascades via whole organ of Corti microarray experiments of diminuendo (Mir96Dmdo) mice, they face limitations in pinpointing cell type-specific differentially expressed genes. This hinders the ability to conclusively determine if the effects of Mir96Dmdo are specifically within HCs and contribute to the observed abnormal Mir96Dmdo HC phenotype and determine the role of miR-96 in HCs. In this study, we generate the first HC-specific RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) datasets from Mir96Dmdo; Atoh1/nGFP+ postnatal day 1 wildtype, heterozygous, and homozygous mutant mice. Our differential gene expression analysis between Mir96Dmdo homozygous mutant HCs compared to wildtype HCs identified 215 upregulated and 428 downregulated genes. Many significantly downregulated genes in Mir96Dmdo homozygous mutant HCs have established roles in HC development and/or known roles in deafness such as Myo15, Myo7a, Ush1c Gfi1, and Ptprq, some of which were not previously identified in other miR-96 datasets. In addition, active modules of protein-protein interaction networks of significantly downregulated genes in Mir96Dmdo homozygous mutant HCs reveal enrichment in GO terms with biological functions such as sound perception and endocytosis. Genes significantly upregulated in Mir96Dmdo homozygous mutant HCs, which are more likely to be direct targets of miR-96, show higher expression in wildtype supporting cells compared to wildtype HCs, suggesting a role of miR-96 in suppressing non-HC genes during HC development. Finally, all generated HC-specific Mir96Dmdo RNA-seq datasets from this manuscript are now publicly available in the miR-96 specific gEAR profile (https://umgear.org/p?l=miR96).

JAK2V617F mutant HSC microarray

Project description:Mutant JAK2V617F is found in majority of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasm. While heterozygous JAK2V617F induced an ET-like phenotype, JAK2V617F homozygosity drives an severe PV-like phenotype in knock-in mice. HSCs from mice with homozygous JAK2V617F expression show impaired self-renewal in transplants. To understand the molecular mechanisms involved this HSC functional defect, microarray was performed on isolated LT-HSCs from mice expressing wildtype, heterozygous and homozygous expression of mutant JAK2.

First Clinical and Myopathological Description of a Myofibrillar Myopathy with Congenital Onset and Homozygous Mutation in FLNC

Project description:Filamin C (encoded by the FLNC gene) is a large actin-cross-linking protein involved in shaping the actin cytoskeleton in response to signaling events both at the sarcolemma and at myofibrillar Z-discs of cross-striated muscle cells. Multiple mutations in FLNC are associated with myofibrillar myopathies of autosomal dominant inheritance. Here, we describe a boy with congenital onset of generalized muscular hypotonia and muscular weakness, delayed motor development but no cardiac involvement associated with a homozygous FLNC mutation affecting the rod domain of the protein. To demonstrate pathogenicity of this homozygous FLNC-mutation described, ultra-morphological, proteomic and functional investigations were performed in addition to immunological studies of known marker proteins for dominant filaminopathies. Our results showed that the mutant protein is expressed to similar quantities as the wildtype variant in control skeletal muscle fibres, alters the proteomic signature of quadriceps muscle, and results in the presence of ultrastructural perturbations. Moreover, comparable findings for filaminopathy marker proteins were found in both, our homozygous and a dominant case. The mutant protein is less stable and more prone to degradation by proteolytic enzymes than the wildtype variant. These combined findings extend the currently recognized clinical, genetic and biochemical spectrum of filaminopathies. The unusual congenital presentation of the disease indicates that homozygosity for a mutation in filamin C severely aggravates the phenotype.

The gene expression changes associated with loss of KDM5 (lid) in Drosophila wing discs

Project description:To determine the gene expression changes associated with loss of KDM5, we carried out microarray analyses of dissected wing imaginal discs from wildtype (w1118) and kdm510424 homozygous mutant 3rd instar larvae (96hr AED). kdm510424 is >99% homozygous lethal and we are unable to detect KDM5 protein by Western blot, thus it is likely to be a strong loss-of-function allele. Hierarchical cluster analysis of our microarray data revealed that of the 18,500 transcripts represented on the array, 367 genes were up-regulated and 534 genes were down-regulated 1.5-fold or more in kdm5 mutants compared to wildtype (p<0.05). To highlight biological processes potentially regulated by KDM5, we determined which gene ontology (GO) terms were enriched within the differentially expressed genes. While a total of ten GO terms were significantly enriched (p<0.01), two functionally related and overlapping terms clearly had the largest number of genes: (1) response to stress and (2) oxidation reduction.

Comparison of organ of Corti RNA from Ptprq-CAT-KO homozygotes and wildtype littermates

Project description:Ptprq is one of the genes markedly downregulated in the diminuendo mouse, which carries a mutation in the microRNA miR-96. We carried out microarrays on mice homozygous for a functional null allele of Ptprq and their wildtype littermates to compare expression changes to those seen in diminuendo homozygotes and examine how much, if any, of the diminuendo transcriptional phenotype can be explained by the downregulation of Ptprq.
