Project description:To characterize the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility in detail, we used a systems genetics approach, integrating mapping of gene expression traits with sterility phenotypes and QTL. We measured genome-wide testis expression in 305 male F2s from a cross between wild-derived inbred strains of M. musculus musculus and M. m. domesticus. We identified several thousand cis- and trans-acting QTL contributing to expression variation (eQTL). Many trans eQTL cluster into eleven ‘hotspots,’ seven of which co-localize with QTL for sterility phenotypes identified in the cross. The number and clustering of trans eQTL - but not cis eQTL - were substantially lower when mapping was restricted to a ‘fertile’ subset of mice, providing evidence that trans eQTL hotspots are related to sterility. Functional annotation of transcripts with eQTL provides insights into the biological processes disrupted by sterility loci and guides prioritization of candidate genes. Using a conditional mapping approach, we identified eQTL dependent on interactions between loci, revealing a complex system of epistasis. Our results illuminate established patterns, including the role of the X chromosome in hybrid sterility.

Project description:Owing to its increased tag length, LongSAGE tags are expected to be more reliable in direct assignment to genome sequences. Therefore, we evaluated the use of LongSAGE data in genome annotation by using our LongSAGE dataset of 202 015 tags (consisting of 41 718 unique tags), experimentally generated from mouse embryonic tail libraries. RESULTS: A fraction of LongSAGE tags could not be unambiguously assigned to its gene, due to the presence of widely conserved sequences downstream of particular CATG anchor sites. The presence of alternative forms of transcripts was confirmed in 45% of all detected genes. Surprisingly, a large fraction of LongSAGE tags with hits to the genome (66%) could not be assigned to any gene annotated in EnsEMBL. Among such cases, 2098 LongSAGE tags fell into a region containing a putative gene predicted by GenScan, providing experimental evidence for the presence of real genes, while 9112 genes were found out to be left out or wrongly annotated by the EnsEMBL pipeline. CONCLUSIONS: LongSAGE transcriptome data can significantly improve the genome annotation by identifying novel genes and alternative transcripts, even in the case of thus far best-characterized organisms like the mouse.

Project description:The aim of the study was to investigate whether the trefoil peptide genes, in concerted action with a miRNA regulatory network, were contributing to nutritional maintrenance. Using a Tff2 knock-out mouse model, 48 specific miRNAs were noted to be significantly deregulated when compared to the wild type strain.
