Genome-wide search to find the genetic elements underlying visual contour perception

ABSTRACT: Contour integration is a key function of the visual system to deal with occlusion and discontinuity in natural scenes. The current study is the first one to investigate the genetic basis of this visual function in humans. A total of 2619 normal participants were tested on their ability to detect continuous contours embedded in a cluttered background with a standard psychophysical protocol. Multi-level genomic analysis was performed, involving heritability estimation based on single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and association testing at SNP and gene levels.

Knockdown of TSPAN8 gene expression in the SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line

Project description:Bipolar disorder (BD) has an estimated heritability of about 80%. Different pathways and candidate genes may contribute to the pathogenesis of BD, but definite mechanisms are yet unresolved. In a previous study, we identified the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs4500567, located in the upstream region of Tetraspanin 8 (TSPAN8), to be associated with bipolar disorder (BD). The SNP´s minor allele results in a predicted binding site for the transcription factor Nuclear Factor Interleukin 3, regulated (NFIL3); luciferase assays confirmed allele-specific TSPAN8 expression levels.

A Link between the N363S Glucocorticoid Receptor Polymorphism and Altered Gene Expression Related to Human Disease

Project description:A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the human glucocorticoid receptor (GR), N363S, has been the focus of several clinical studies, and some epidemiological data link this SNP to increased glucocorticoid sensitivity, coronary artery disease and increased body mass index (BMI). However, molecular studies in vitro using reporter gene expression systems have failed to define a link between this polymorphism and altered glucocorticoid receptor function. To address the biological relevancy of N363S in glucocorticoid receptor mechanisms and function, we established stable U-2 OS (human osteosarcoma) cell lines expressing wild type hGR or N363S using a tetracycline-regulated expression system. Functional assays with reporter gene systems revealed only minor differences between the wild type hGR and N363S receptors under a variety of conditions that probe for GR function. However, examination of this polymorphism by human gene microarray analysis showed, for the first time, that there are significant differences between wild type hGR and the N363S SNP in their ability to selectively regulate gene expression. Several of these genes may define the link between the N363S SNP and human disease. Keywords: human glucocorticoid receptor, N363S single nucleotide polymorphism, microarray gene analysis

SNP data from genomic DNA in patient with rectal cancer

Project description:The identification of surrogate single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers that can predict responses to preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in rectal cancer patients. Genome-wide association studies in clinical populations are theoretically capable of identifying markers that are capable of tumor regression after CRT. We used Affymetrix’s SNP Array 6.0 to detail genetic polymorphism of patient’s group showing differential responsiveness to preoperative CRT and profiled SNP biomarkers.

This project aims to study human memory capacity, including short-term memory and long-term memory, systematically via genome-wide association studies

Project description:Development of high-throughput genotyping platforms provides an opportunity to identify new genetic elements related to complex cognitive functions. Taking advantage of multi-level genomic analysis, here we studied the genetic basis of human short-term (STM, n=1,620) and long-term (LTM, n=1,526) memory functions. Heritability estimation based on single nucleotide polymorphism showed moderate heritability of short-term memory but very low heritability of long-term memory. In a two-step genome-wide association study, the markers rs13151012 and rs1558360 passed genome-wide significance (p < 5×10-8) in digit-span STM task and for the first principal component shared by two STM tasks; however, none of them survived the replication. In turn, we selected the ten most significant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for replication tests. Among them, a SNP near ZFAT was significantly associated with STM performance in another independent population of 2,789; a polymorphism within BCAT2 was significantly associated with LTM in another independent population of 1,865. Furthermore, we performed a pathway analysis based on the current genomic data and found six pathways significantly associated with STM capacity and one pathway associated with LTM capacity.

Geobacter sulfurreducens and Pseudomonas aeruginosa adapted cocultures SWATH-MS

Project description:In this study we further investigate the previously observed syntrophic interaction between Geobacter sulfurreducens and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In early coculture establishment, two genetic variants of G. sulfurreducens emerged that were strongly selected for throughout coculture evolution. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variants occurred in fabI and tetR genes of G. sulfurreducens. The tetR variants displayed upregulation of adenylate cyclase transporter, CyaE and of RND efflux pump proteins as determined through SWATH-MS proteomics.
