Project description:In order to determine the effect of neoR gene in Q175 locus, miRNASeq was performed to compare the transcriptional signatures of zQ175 knock-in neo-in (z_Q175 KI) (CHDI-81003003) and zQ175 KI neo-out (Z_Q175 (neo -) KI) (CHDI-81003019) mouse lines. The z_Q175 KI is a knock-in mouse line with humanized exon 1 (190-200 pure CAG repeats) derived from Q140 KI colony. It contains floxed neo cassette upstream of exon 1. The Z_Q175 KI (neo -) KI was generated by crossing the Z-Q175 KI line with a zp3-cre transgenic line to delete out the neo cassette.

Project description:Variants of the SH3 and multiple ankyrin repeat domains 3 (SHANK3), which encodes postsynaptic scaffolds, are associated with brain disorders. The targeted alleles in a few Shank3 knock-out (KO) lines contain a neomycin resistance (Neo) cassette, which may perturb the normal expression of neighboring genes; however, this has not been investigated in detail. We previously reported an unexpected increase in the mRNA expression of Shank3 exons 1~12 in the brains of Shank3B KO mice generated by replacing Shank3 exons 13~16 with the Neo cassette. In this study, we confirmed that the increased Shank3 mRNA in Shank3B KO brains produced an unusual ~60 kDa Shank3 isoform (Shank3-N), which did not properly localize to the synaptic compartment.
Project description:To investigate the role of TGF-M-NM-21-regulated miRNAs in the progression of RMS,we performed comprehensive miRMA microarray analysis on RNA derived from typical RMS cell lines and TGF-M-NM-21 knock-down cell lines. We identified a novel set of TGF-M-NM-21-related miRNAs. Total RNA was isolated from TGF-M-NM-21-knock down rhabdmyosarcoma cell lines and controls. Three-condition experiment: shRNA-TGF-M-NM-21/RD cells vs. shRNA-Control/RD cells, shRNA-TGF-M-NM-21/SMS-CTR cells vs. shRNA-Control/ SMS-CTR cells, and shRNA-TGF-M-NM-21/RH28 cells vs. shRNA-Control/RH28 cells.

Project description:We used ATLAS-seq-neo to map the sites of integration of an engineered LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposon into the genome of HeLa S3 cells. In brief, we transfected cells with a plasmid-borne L1.3 element carrying a NeoR-based retrotransposition cassette. Cells were selected by G418 and used to prepare ATLAS-seq-neo libraries. Each sample corresponds to an independent transfection and pool of G418-resistant cells. ATLAS-seq-neo relies on the random mechanical fragmentation of the genomic DNA to ensure high-coverage, ligation of adapter sequences, suppression PCR-amplification of the 3' end L1 junction with its flanking genomic sequence, and Ion Torrent sequencing using single-end 400 bp read chemistry. The primer used for suppression PCR specifically targets the engineered element and not endogenous copies as in the original ATLAS-seq protocol (Philippe et al. eLife 2016).
