Project description:IDH1-R132H is expressed in Low Grade Glioma (LGG) in combination with loss of function mutation in ATRX and TP53 genes. IDH1-R132H results in gain of function with production of 2-hydroxygluatrate, that in turn generates a hypermethylatyed phenotype in DNA and histone with consequences in epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Here we will compare the gene expression profile between IDH1-R132H and IDH1 Wt LLG animal brain tumors in reponse to radiation
Project description:IDH1-R132H is expressed in Low Grade Glioma (LGG) in combination with loss of function mutation in ATRX and TP53 genes. IDH1-R132H results in gain of function with production of 2-hydroxygluatrate, that in turn generates a hypermethylated phenotype in DNA and histone with consequences in epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Here we will compare the gene expression profile between IDH1-R132H and IDH1 Wt LLG moribund animal brain tumors and identify key genes responsible for the phenotype of this subtype of glioma.
