Background
Migraine is a common disorder that often coexists with depression. While a functional polymorphism in methyleneterahydrofolate reductase gene (MTHFR C677T) has been implicated in depression; the evidence to support an association of MTHFR with migraine has been inconclusive. We aim to investigate the effect of this variant on propensity for migraine and to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies of MTHFR and migraine to date. 相似文献93.
Estimating chromatographic enantioselectivity (α) from gradient enantioselective chromatography data

Calculation of chromatographic enantioselectivity (α) is critically important in enantioselective chromatographic method development studies. The fact that α can only be calculated from isocratic elution conditions, whereas gradient elution conditions are predominantly used in method development screening, presents some problems for the use of α as a scoring indicator for automated, intelligent enantioselective chromatography method development systems. In this study, an empirical algorithm was developed to estimate α at isocratic conditions based upon information collected from a gradient elution. The algorithm was validated for SFC applications and has been shown to accurately predict enantioselectivity for a wide variety of racemic test analytes eluted on different chiral column and mobile phase conditions.

Recent studies have highlighted that cancer cells with a loss of the SWI/SNF complex catalytic subunit BRG1 are dependent on the remaining ATPase, BRM, making it an attractive target for cancer therapy. However, an understanding of the extent of target inhibition required to arrest cell growth, necessary to develop an appropriate therapeutic strategy, remains unknown. Here, we utilize tunable depletion of endogenous BRM using the SMASh degron, and interestingly observe that BRG1-mutant lung cancer cells require near complete depletion of BRM to robustly inhibit growth both in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, to identify pathways that synergize with partial BRM depletion and afford a deeper response, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR screen and discovered a combinatorial effect between BRM depletion and the knockout of various genes of the oxidative phosphorylation pathway and the anti-apoptotic gene MCL1. Together these studies provide an important framework to elucidate the requirements of BRM inhibition in the BRG1-mutant state with implications on the feasibility of targeting BRM alone, as well as reveal novel insights into pathways that can be exploited in combination toward deeper anti-tumor responses. 相似文献

Identification and distribution of a GABA receptor mutation conferring dieldrin resistance in the malaria vector Anopheles funestus in Africa 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Growing problems of pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles funestus have intensified efforts to identify alternative insecticides. Many agrochemicals target the GABA receptors, but cross-resistance from dieldrin resistance may preclude their introduction.Dieldrin resistance was detected in An. funestus populations from West (Burkina Faso) and central (Cameroon) Africa, but populations from East (Uganda) and Southern Africa (Mozambique and Malawi) were fully susceptible to this insecticide. Partial sequencing of the dieldrin target site, the ??-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor, identified two amino acid substitutions, A296S and V327I. The A296S mutation has been associated with dieldrin resistance in other species. The V327I mutations was detected in the resistant sample from Burkina Faso and Cameroon and consistently associated with the A296S substitution. The full-length of the An. funestus GABA-receptor gene, amplified by RT-PCR, generated a sequence of 1674 bp encoding 557 amino acid of the protein in An. funestus with 98% similarity to that of Anopheles gambiae. Two diagnostic assays were developed to genotype the A296S mutation (pyrosequencing and PCR-RFLP), and use of these assays revealed high frequency of the resistant allele in Burkina Faso (60%) and Cameroon (82%), moderate level in Benin (16%) while low frequency or absence of the mutation was observed respectively in Uganda (7.5%) or 0% in Malawi and Mozambique.The distribution of the RdlR mutation in An. funestus populations in Africa suggests extensive barriers to gene flow between populations from different regions. 相似文献

BackgroundIdentifying genetic variants that lead to discernible phenotypes is the core of Mendelian genetics. An approach that considers embryonic lethality as a bona fide Mendelian phenotype has the potential to reveal novel genetic causes, which will further our understanding of early human development at a molecular level. Consanguineous families in which embryonic lethality segregates as a recessive Mendelian phenotype offer a unique opportunity for high throughput novel gene discovery as has been established for other recessive postnatal phenotypes.ResultsWe have studied 24 eligible families using autozygosity mapping and whole-exome sequencing. In addition to revealing mutations in genes previously linked to embryonic lethality in severe cases, our approach revealed seven novel candidate genes (THSD1, PIGC, UBN1, MYOM1, DNAH14, GALNT14, and FZD6). A founder mutation in one of these genes, THSD1, which has been linked to vascular permeability, accounted for embryonic lethality in three of the study families. Unlike the other six candidate genes, we were able to identify a second mutation in THSD1 in a family with a less severe phenotype consisting of hydrops fetalis and persistent postnatal edema, which provides further support for the proposed link between this gene and embryonic lethality.ConclusionsOur study represents an important step towards the systematic analysis of “embryonic lethal genes” in humans.

Bacterial enzymatic degradation of glycosaminoglycans such as hyaluronan and chondroitin is facilitated by polysaccharide lyases. Family 8 polysaccharide lyase (PL8) enzymes contain at least two domains: one predominantly composed of α-helices, the α-domain, and another predominantly composed of β-sheets, the β-domain. Simulation flexibility analyses indicate that processive exolytic cleavage of hyaluronan, by PL8 hyaluronate lyases, is likely to involve an interdomain shift, resulting in the opening/closing of the substrate-binding cleft between the α- and β-domains, facilitating substrate translocation. Here, the Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) PL8 enzyme was recombinantly expressed in and purified from Escherichia coli and biochemically characterized as a hyaluronate lyase. By using X-ray crystallography its structure was solved in complex with hyaluronan and chondroitin disaccharides. These findings show key catalytic interactions made by the different substrates, and on comparison with all other PL8 structures reveals that the substrate-binding cleft of the S. coelicolor enzyme is highly occluded. A third structure of the enzyme, harboring a mutation of the catalytic tyrosine, created via site-directed mutagenesis, interestingly revealed an interdomain shift that resulted in the opening of the substrate-binding cleft. These results add further support to the proposed processive mechanism of action of PL8 hyaluronate lyases and may indicate that the mechanism of action is likely to be universally used by PL8 hyaluronate lyases. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to investigate the rate of Staphylococcus aureus nasal and skin carriage in patients undergoing haemodialysis. The cultured staphylococcal isolates were subsequently characterized by molecular methods. The study group comprised 43 haemodialysed patients from whom nasal and skin swabs from the vascular access sites were collected. The identification of staphylococcal isolates and antibiotic susceptibility testing were performed on the basis of conventional diagnostic procedures. The staphylococci were further characterized using Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE). S. aureus was cultured from 12 (27.9%) patients. Only one (8.3%) patient was colonized with the microorganism both in the anterior nares and the vascular access site representing a single strain, as evidenced by PFGE analysis. Antibiotic susceptibility testing identified one (7.6%) methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strain. PFGE typing identified several S. aureus genotypes with the lack of one specific strain responsible for colonization. However, it should be noted that among two (A and D) PFGE patterns genetically indistinguishable and closely related isolates (two isolates for each pattern) were identified. The obtained results revealed a relatively low rate of S. aureus carriage accompanied by low methicillin resistance rate and a significant genetic diversity of cultured isolates with the lack of one predominant strain responsible for colonization. 相似文献
