को नियंत्रित अभिव्यक्ति या विभिन्न जैविक प्रणालियों में विशिष्ट जीन की गतिविधि जीन समारोह 1 के अध्ययन में एक मूल्यवान रणनीति बन गया है। इस लक्ष्य को पूरा करने का एक सीधा मतलब न्यूक्लियोटाइड दृश्यों में हेरफेर और उत्परिवर्ती alleles उत्पन्न करने के लिए है। हालांकि जीवित कोशिकाओं के जीनोम के लिए सटीक, लक्षित परिवर्तन करने में अभी भी है एक समय लेने वाली और श्रम प्रधान अभ्यास, शक्तिशाली TALEN और Crispr / Cas9 उपकरणों के विकास जीनोम संपादन 2-5 के एक नए युग खोल दिया है। जीन में गड़बड़ी के लिए एक अधिक नियमित प्रयोगशाला विधि आनुवंशिक सामग्री (DNAs और कोडिंग दृश्यों या siRNAs / shRNAs युक्त आरएनए) कोशिकाओं में व्यक्त या ब्याज 1,6 के जीन (ओं) को पछाड़ना की शुरूआत पर ध्यान केंद्रित किया है। कई मामलों में, जीन में गड़बड़ी के लिए बड़ी अड़चन कोशिकाओं में डीएनए, आरएनए, या प्रोटीन की डिलीवरी है। इन विट्रो अध्ययन के संबंध में, कुशल transfecti के साथसिस्टम पर कई सुसंस्कृत सेल लाइनों में स्थापित किया गया है। हालांकि, विशेष रूप से माउस मॉडल में, इन विवो जीन डिलीवरी अधिक चुनौतीपूर्ण है। वहाँ अतिरिक्त और intracellular बाधाओं को आदेश बहिर्जात अभिकर्मकों के कुशल सेलुलर तेज हासिल करने के लिए नजरअंदाज किए जाने की जरूरत है की एक श्रृंखला रहे हैं। अतिरिक्त बाधाएं तेजी से निकासी और वितरित की सामग्री 7.8 से कम की अवधि शामिल हैं। एक रणनीति के इन मुद्दों को दरकिनार करने के लिए &quot;वाहक&quot; या &quot;वाहन&quot; इन विवो जीन डिलीवरी के लिए के रूप में वायरल वैक्टर का उपयोग करने के लिए है। वायरस के स्वाभाविक रूप से विकसित पारगमन गुण कोशिकाओं 7,9,10 में ब्याज की एक जीन की कुशल वितरण की अनुमति है। वायरल वैक्टर के कई प्रकार विकसित किया है और विभिन्न प्रकार के और अंगों चूहों में कोशिका में विवो जीन हेरफेर में लचीला सक्षम किया गया है। सबसे अधिक इस्तेमाल किया वायरल सिस्टम Retrovirus, Lentivirus, Adenovirus, और एडिनो जुड़े वायरस (एएवी) शामिल <s&gt; 11 अप। रेट्रोवायरस एकल असहाय आरएनए वायरस होते हैं और mitotic विभाजन के दौरान एक स्थिर तरीके से मेजबान सेल जीनोम को उनके आनुवंशिक सामग्री पेश कर सकते हैं, लक्ष्य कोशिकाओं और अंगों 12-14 में transduced जीनों की अभिव्यक्ति के लिए आजीवन संभावित प्रदान करते हैं। हालांकि, रेट्रोवायरस के कई प्रकार के केवल संक्रमित कोशिकाओं को विभाजित है, और गैर विभाजित कोशिकाओं में उनकी प्रभावकारिता बहुत कम 15 है। इस जीन डिलीवरी के लिए उनकी उपयोगिता को सीमित करता है। Lentivirus Retroviridae परिवार की एक जीनस है। अन्य रेट्रोवायरस से अलग है, Lentivirus दोनों को विभाजित और गैर विभाजित कोशिकाओं को संक्रमित कर सकते हैं और व्यापक रूप से बाद mitotic और अत्यधिक विभेदित कोशिकाओं 16 में जीन स्थानांतरण के लिए इस्तेमाल किया गया है। Lentivirus के जीवन चक्र भी मेजबान जीनोम में वेक्टर डीएनए के एकीकरण शामिल है। इस प्रकार, Lentivirus की मध्यस्थता जीन डिलीवरी transduced आनुवंशिक तत्वों 16-18 के स्थिर और लंबी अवधि अभिव्यक्ति सक्षम बनाता है। हालांकि, यह सुविधा एक डबल-ए प्रतिनिधित्व कर सकते हैंइन वायरस के उपयोग में dged तलवार जीन अभिव्यक्ति में हेरफेर करने के लिए, के रूप में वेक्टर डीएनए के एकीकरण इन्सर्शनल म्युटाजेनेसिस को जन्म दे सकती मेजबान कोशिकाओं में और artefactual प्रभाव पैदा कर सकता है। Adenovirus एक और व्यापक रूप से इस्तेमाल जीन वितरण प्रणाली है। रेट्रोवायरस और lentiviruses के विपरीत, एडिनोवायरस गैर एकीकृत कर रहे हैं और मेजबान कोशिकाओं 8,10,11,19 के जीनोमिक ईमानदारी के साथ हस्तक्षेप नहीं करते। इसके अलावा, एडिनोवायरस कई प्रकार की कोशिकाओं में डीएनए transfect कर सकते हैं, और संक्रमण सक्रिय कोशिका विभाजन 19 पर निर्भर नहीं है। एडिनोवायरस की एक और महत्वपूर्ण विशेषता है, वेक्टर शुद्धि में आसानी के रूप में वायरल वैक्टर क्षमता 19,20 दोहराया जाना है। हालांकि, इस प्रणाली का एक प्रमुख चेतावनी है कि Adenovirus संक्रमण विशेष रूप से जीन थेरेपी के अध्ययन में, लक्ष्य कोशिकाओं और अंगों 19 में मजबूत प्रतिरक्षा प्रतिक्रिया ट्रिगर, कई जांच में इसके उपयोग को सीमित कर सकते हैं। इन विभिन्न प्रकार के साथ तुलनावायरल वैक्टर एस, पुनः संयोजक एडिनो जुड़े वायरस (rAAV) आदर्श जीन वितरण प्रणाली 21,22 प्रतीत होता है। यह कम से कम प्रतिरक्षाजनकता और pathogenicity 23,24 दर्शाती है। इसके अलावा, rAAV प्रकार की कोशिकाओं का एक व्यापक रेंज, दोनों विभाजन और गैर विभाजित कोशिकाओं सहित संक्रमित। ज्यादातर मामलों में, rAAV मेजबान जीनोम में एकीकृत नहीं करता है; इस प्रकार, लक्ष्य कोशिकाओं में अवांछित आनुवंशिक या जीनोमिक परिवर्तन के खतरे को कम 22 है। हाल ही में, rAAV सिस्टम सफलतापूर्वक माउस हृदय की मांसपेशी 23,25-29 में डीएनए एन्कोडिंग प्रोटीन, miRNAs, shRNAs, और Crispr-gRNAs के vivo प्रसव के लिए इस्तेमाल किया गया है। इस पद्धति हृदय अनुसंधान के क्षेत्र में मौलिक जांच और जीन थेरेपी के अध्ययन में मदद की है। इधर, विस्तृत प्रक्रिया rAAV9 वैक्टर कि कुशलतापूर्वक overexpress या माउस दिलों में ब्याज की जीन पछाड़ना वर्णित किया गया था उत्पन्न करते हैं। प्रोटोकॉल के लिए एक सरल और प्रभावी तरीका प्रदान करता हैmurine प्रयोगात्मक मॉडल में हृदय जीन अभिव्यक्ति जोड़ तोड़।

Preparation of rAAV9 to Overexpress or Knockdown Genes in Mouse Hearts

In this manuscript, a method to prepare recombinant adeno-associated virus 9 (rAAV9) vectors to manipulate gene expression in the mouse heart is described.

The overall goal of this procedure is to prepare recombinant adeno-associated virus nine, or rAAV9, to manipulate gene expression in mouse hearts. The method can answer key question in the field of cardiology and molecular genetics, such as how to study gene function in mouse heart in vivo. The main advantage of this technique is that it will allow us to easily manipulate the gene expression and function in vivo in mouse heart, allowing the functional access of gene function without having to rely on the genetically modified animal models.After generating rAAV9 constructs and culturing HEK293 cells according to the text protocol, to transfect the cells on day one, combine 70 micrograms of AAV Rep-Cap plasmid, 70 micrograms of rAAV9 plasmid, and 200 micrograms of Ad helper plasmid in a 50-milliliter centrifuge tube. Add 49 milliliters of room temperature DMEM without FBS to the tube and mix well. Then, to make a four-to-one PEI to DNA solution, add 1, 360 microliters of PEI to the tube and mix well.Incubate the solution at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes. After the incubation, add five milliliters of the solution to each 150-milliliter dish of cells. Culture the cells at 37 degrees Celsius and 5%CO2 for 50 to 72 hours.To harvest the transfected cells, dislodge and suspend the cells by using the culture medium to pipette up and down. Then transfer the cell suspensions to sterile 50-milliliter tubes. Centrifuge the cells at 500 times G for five minutes.Then add five milliliters of PBS to each tube and re-suspend the cell pellets before combining all the suspensions in one 50-milliliter tube. After spinning the cells at 500 times G for five minutes, discard the supernatant. To purify the AAV, re-suspend the pellet in 10 milliliter of lysis buffer.Freeze the lysate at minus 80 degrees Celsius or in a dry ice ethanol bath. Then thaw it at 37 degrees Celsius. Vortex the lysate for one minute before repeating the freeze and thaw two more times.Next, add one millimolar magnesium chloride to the thawed lysate. Then add nuclease to a final concentration of 250 units per milliliter. Incubate the solution at 37 degrees Celsius for 15 minutes to dissolve the DNA protein aggregation.Centrifuge the sample at 4, 800 times G and four degrees Celsius for 20 minutes. Then collect the supernatant. Meanwhile, to prepare a 17%iodixanol gradient solution, mix five milliliters of 10X PBS with 0.05 milliliters of one molar magnesium chloride, 0.125 milliliters of one molar potassium chloride, 10 milliliters of five molar sodium chloride, and 12.5 milliliters of density gradient medium.Use water to adjust the total volume to 50 milliliters. After preparing 25, 40, and 60%gradient solutions according to the text protocol, use a needle and syringe to load five milliliters of 17%gradient solution into a polypropylene tube. Follow this with five milliliters each of 25, 40, and 60%gradient solutions.Layer the lysate on top of the gradient. Then fill the tube with lysis buffer and cover it with a cork. Centrifuge the gradient at 185, 000 times G and 16%Celsius for 90 minutes.Following the spin, use a syringe to harvest the 40%viral fraction by inserting a 21 gauge needle into the intersection between the 40 and 60%fractions, completely avoiding the 25%layer. Mix the viral fraction with sterilized polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene, or PEG-PPG block copolymer PBS solution, up to a total volume of 15 milliliters. Load the mixture into a filter tube with a molecular weight cutoff of 100 kilodaltons.Then centrifuge the sample at 2, 000 times G and four degrees Celsius for 30 minutes. Decant the solution from the bottom of the tube. Then use PEG-PPG to refill the filter tube to 15 milliliters.Centrifuge the tube at 2, 000 times G and four degrees Celsius for 20 minutes. After repeating the refilling and spin two more times, collect the purified rAAV9 virus fraction still above the filter. Aliquot 100 to 400 microliters of the purified rAAV9 into 1.7-milliliter tubes, depending on the viral titer, and store the virus at minus 80 degrees Celsius.After determining the viral titer according to the text protocol, prepare rAAV9 working solutions with virus titers of one to seven times 10 to the 12th particles per milliliter. To treat neonatal mice, use the rAAV9 solution to pre-fill a 0.33 by 12.7-milliliter insulin syringe with a 29 gauge one-half inch needle, avoiding air bubbles. After cryo-anesthetizing a pup, hold the pup in one hand with thumb and forefinger, then swipe the back skin of the pup with a swab stick saturated with 70%isopropyl alcohol.Insert the syringe into the anterior dorsal subcutis of the animal at an angle of five to 10 degrees before injecting 50 to 70 microliters of the rAAV9 solution. The standard curve for rAAV9 titration was generated with the qPCR data by linear regression. The manipulated variable y represents the log10 value of the DNA molecular concentration of each standard sample, and the corresponding variable x represents the Ct value.The log10 concentration values and Ct numbers exhibit a nice linear correlation and fit with the equation shown here. Titers of rAAV9 samples were calculated based on the linear equation. Using the method demonstrated in this video, a high titer of rAAV9 vectors was obtained in this representative study.To monitor the efficiency and tissue specificity of rAAV9 cTNT vectors, P0.5 pups were treated with the same amount of rAAV9 cTNT luciferase or rAAV9 cTNT GFP by subcutaneous injection. Two weeks after injection, robust expression of GFP was detected in the heart but not in other organs. To monitor the knockdown efficiency and tissue specificity of rAAV9 U6 vectors, P0.5 mice were treated with the same amount of rAAV9 U6 scramble or rAAV9 U6 Trbp shRNA by subcutaneous injection.Two weeks after injection, the mRNA level of Trbp in the heart was substantially reduced by rAAV9 U6 shTrbp. Down-regulation of Trbp was also detected to a lesser extent in the liver. Once mastered, rAAV preparation can be done in five days, if it is formulated properly.While attempting this procedure, it is important to remember to use healthy 293 cells for rAAV packaging. After its development, this technique paved the way for researchers in the field of cardiology and genetics to explore gene functions and gene therapeutic potentials in mouse hearts. After watching this video, you should have a good understanding of how to prepare recombinant AAV9 to manipulate the gene expressing any function in mouse hearts.

The Use of Induced Somatic Sector Analysis (ISSA) for Studying Genes and Promoters Involved in Wood Formation and Secondary Stem Development

Secondary stem growth in trees and associated wood formation are significant both from biological and commercial perspectives. However, relatively little is known about the molecular control that governs their development. This is in part due to physical, resource and time limitations often associated with the study of secondary growth processes. A number of in vitro techniques have been used involving either plant part or whole plant system in both woody and non-woody plant species. However, questions about their applicability for the study of secondary stem growth processes, the recalcitrance of certain species and labor intensity are often prohibitive for medium to high throughput applications. Also, when looking at secondary stem development and wood formation the specific traits under investigation might only become measurable late in a tree&#39;s lifecycle after several years of growth. In addressing these challenges alternative in vivo protocols have been developed, named Induced Somatic Sector Analysis, which involve the creation of transgenic somatic tissue sectors directly in the plant&#39;s secondary stem. The aim of this protocol is to provide an efficient, easy and relatively fast means to create transgenic secondary plant tissue for gene and promoter functional characterization that can be utilized in a range of tree species. Results presented here show that transgenic secondary stem sectors can be created in all live tissues and cell types in secondary stems of a variety of tree species and that wood morphological traits as well as promoter expression patterns in secondary stems can be readily assessed facilitating medium to high throughput functional characterization.

Peptide-derived Method to Transport Genes and Proteins Across Cellular and Organellar Barriers in Plants

The capacity to introduce exogenous proteins and express (or down-regulate) specific genes in plants provides a powerful tool for fundamental research as well as new applications in the field of plant biotechnology. Viable methods that currently exist for protein or gene transfer into plant cells, namely Agrobacterium and microprojectile bombardment, have disadvantages of low transformation frequency, limited host range, or a high cost of equipment and microcarriers. The following protocol outlines a simple and versatile method, which employs rationally-designed peptides as delivery agents for a variety of nucleic acid- and protein-based cargoes into plants. Peptides are selected as tools for development of the system due to their biodegradability, reduced size, diverse and tunable properties as well as the ability to gain intracellular/organellar access. The preparation, characterization and application of optimized formulations for each type of the wide range of delivered cargoes (plasmid DNA, double-stranded DNA or RNA, and protein) are described. Critical steps within the protocol, possible modifications and existing limitations of the method are also discussed.

Existing methods for the modification of plants have limited applicability. The novel peptide-derived technology proposed here promises both simplicity and efficiency in the introduction of exogenous protein or genes into the desired intracellular compartments of intact plants.

Rearing and Double-stranded RNA-mediated Gene Knockdown in the Hide Beetle, Dermestes maculatus

Advances in genomics have raised the possibility of probing biodiversity at an unprecedented scale. However, sequence alone will not be informative without tools to study gene function. The development and sharing of detailed protocols for the establishment of new model systems in laboratories, and for tools to carry out functional studies, is thus crucial for leveraging the power of genomics. Coleoptera (beetles) are the largest clade of insects and occupy virtually all types of habitats on the planet. In addition to providing ideal models for fundamental research, studies of beetles can have impacts on pest control as they are often pests of households, agriculture, and food industries. Detailed protocols for rearing and maintenance of D. maculatus laboratory colonies and for carrying out dsRNA-mediated interference in D. maculatus are presented. Both embryonic and parental RNAi procedures-including apparatus set up, preparation, injection, and post-injection recovery-are described. Methods are also presented for analyzing embryonic phenotypes, including viability, patterning defects in hatched larvae, and cuticle preparations for unhatched larvae. These assays, together with in situ hybridization and immunostaining for molecular markers, make D. maculatus an accessible model system for basic and applied research. They further provide useful information for establishing procedures in other emerging insect model systems.

Targeted in Situ Mutagenesis of Histone Genes in Budding Yeast

We describe a PCR- and homologous recombination-based system for generating targeted mutations in histone genes in budding yeast cells. The resulting mutant alleles reside at their endogenous genomic sites and no exogenous DNA sequences are left in the genome following the procedure. Since in haploid yeast cells each of the four core histone proteins is encoded by two non-allelic genes with highly homologous open reading frames (ORFs), targeting mutagenesis specifically to one of two genes encoding a particular histone protein can be problematic. The strategy we describe here bypasses this problem by utilizing sequences outside, rather than within, the ORF of the target genes for the homologous recombination step. Another feature of this system is that the regions of DNA driving the homologous recombination steps can be made to be very extensive, thus increasing the likelihood of successful integration events. These features make this strategy particularly well-suited for histone gene mutagenesis, but can also be adapted for mutagenesis of other genes in the yeast genome.

Transient Expression of Foreign Genes in Insect Cells (sf9) for Protein Functional Assay

The transient gene expression system is one of the most important technologies for performing protein functional analysis in the baculovirus in vitro cell culture system. This system was developed to express foreign genes under the control of the baculoviral promoter in transient expression plasmids. Furthermore, this system can be applied to a functional assay of either the baculovirus itself or foreign proteins. The most widely and commercially available transient gene expression system is developed based on the immediate-early gene (IE) promoter of Orgyia pseudotsugata multicapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (OpMNPV). However, a low expression level of foreign genes in insect cells was observed. Therefore, a transient gene expression system was constructed for improving protein expression. In this system, recombinant plasmids were constructed to contain the target sequence under the control of the Drosophila heat shock 70 (Dhsp70) promoter. This protocol presents the application of this heat shock-based pDHsp/V5-His (V5 epitope with 6 histidine)/Spodoptera frugiperda cell (sf9 cell) system; this system is available not only for gene expression but also for evaluating the anti-apoptotic activity of candidate proteins in insect cells. Furthermore, this system can be either transfected with one recombinant plasmid or co-transfected two potentially functionally antagonistic recombinant plasmids in insect cells. The protocol demonstrates the efficiency of this system and provides a practical case of this technique.

Transient Expression of Foreign Genes in Insect Cells sf9 for Protein Functional Assay

This protocol describes a heat shock-induced protein expression system (pDHsp/V5-His/sf9 cell system), which can be used for either expressing foreign proteins or evaluating the anti-apoptotic activity of potential foreign proteins and their truncated amino acids in insect cells.

Simultaneous Video-EEG-ECG Monitoring to Identify Neurocardiac Dysfunction in Mouse Models of Epilepsy

In epilepsy, seizures can evoke cardiac rhythm disturbances such as heart rate changes, conduction blocks, asystoles, and arrhythmias, which can potentially increase risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Electroencephalography (EEG) and electrocardiography (ECG) are widely used clinical diagnostic tools to monitor for abnormal brain and cardiac rhythms in patients. Here, a technique to simultaneously record video, EEG, and ECG in mice to measure behavior, brain, and cardiac activities, respectively, is described. The technique described herein utilizes a tethered (i.e., wired) recording configuration in which the implanted electrode on the head of the mouse is hard-wired to the recording equipment. Compared to wireless telemetry recording systems, the tethered arrangement possesses several technical advantages such as a greater possible number of channels for recording EEG or other biopotentials; lower electrode costs; and greater frequency bandwidth (i.e., sampling rate) of recordings. The basics of this technique can also be easily modified to accommodate recording other biosignals, such as electromyography (EMG) or plethysmography for assessment of muscle and respiratory activity, respectively. In addition to describing how to perform the EEG-ECG recordings, we also detail methods to quantify the resulting data for seizures, EEG spectral power, cardiac function, and heart rate variability, which we demonstrate in an example experiment using a mouse with epilepsy due to Kcna1 gene deletion. Video-EEG-ECG monitoring in mouse models of epilepsy or other neurological disease provides a powerful tool to identify dysfunction at the level of the brain, heart, or brain-heart interactions.

Here, we present a protocol to record brain and heart bio signals in mice using simultaneous video, electroencephalography (EEG), and electrocardiography (ECG). We also describe methods to analyze the resulting EEG-ECG recordings for seizures, EEG spectral power, cardiac function, and heart rate variability.

qKAT: Quantitative Semi-automated Typing of Killer-cell Immunoglobulin-like Receptor Genes

Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) are a set of inhibitory and activating immune receptors, on natural killer (NK) and T cells, encoded by a polymorphic cluster of genes on chromosome 19. Their best-characterized ligands are the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules that are encoded within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) locus on chromosome 6. There is substantial evidence that they play a significant role in immunity, reproduction, and transplantation, making it crucial to have techniques that can accurately genotype them. However, high-sequence homology, as well as allelic and copy number variation, make it difficult to design methods that can accurately and efficiently genotype all KIR genes. Traditional methods are usually limited in the resolution of data obtained, throughput, cost-effectiveness, and the time taken for setting up and running the experiments. We describe a method called quantitative KIR semi-automated typing (qKAT), which is a high-throughput multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction method that can determine the gene copy numbers for all genes in the KIR locus. qKAT is a simple high-throughput method that can provide high-resolution KIR copy number data, which can be further used to infer the variations in the structurally polymorphic haplotypes that encompass them. This copy number and haplotype data can be beneficial for studies on large-scale disease associations, population genetics, as well as investigations on expression and functional interactions between KIR and HLA.

Quantitative killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) semi-automated typing (qKAT) is a simple, high-throughput, and cost-effective method to copy number type KIR genes for their application in population and disease association studies.

An In Vitro Protocol for Evaluating MicroRNA Levels, Functions, and Associated Target Genes in Tumor Cells

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small regulatory RNAs which are recognized to modulate numerous intracellular signaling pathways in several diseases including cancers. These small regulatory RNAs mainly interact with the 3&#8217; untranslated regions (3&#8217; UTR) of their target messenger RNAs (mRNAs) ultimately resulting in the inhibition of decoding processes of mRNAs and the augmentation of target mRNA degradations. Based on the expression levels and intracellular functions, miRNAs are able to serve as regulatory factors of oncogenic and tumor-suppressive mRNAs. Identification of bona fide target genes of a miRNA among hundreds or even thousands of computationally predicted targets is a crucial step to discern the roles and basic molecular mechanisms of a miRNA of interest. Various miRNA target prediction programs are available to search possible miRNA-mRNA interactions. However, the most challenging question is how to validate direct target genes of a miRNA of interest. This protocol describes a reproducible strategy of key methods on how to identify miRNA targets related to the function of a miRNA. This protocol presents a practical guide on step-by-step procedures to uncover miRNA levels, functions, and related target mRNAs using the probe-based real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay following a miRNA mimic transfection, dose-response curve generation, and luciferase assay along with the cloning of 3&#8217; UTR of a gene, which is necessary for proper understanding of the roles of individual miRNAs.

This protocol uses a probe-based real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), a sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay, 3&#8217; untranslated regions (3&#8217; UTR) cloning, and a luciferase assay to verify the target genes of a miRNA of interest and to understand the functions of miRNAs.

In Vivo Forward Genetic Screen to Identify Novel Neuroprotective Genes in Drosophila melanogaster

There is much to understand about the onset and progression of neurodegenerative diseases, including the underlying genes responsible. Forward genetic screening using chemical mutagens is a useful strategy for mapping mutant phenotypes to genes among Drosophila and other model organisms that share conserved cellular pathways with humans. If the mutated gene of interest is not lethal in early developmental stages of flies, a climbing assay can be conducted to screen for phenotypic indicators of decreased brain functioning, such as low climbing rates. Subsequently, secondary histological analysis of brain tissue can be performed in order to verify the neuroprotective function of the gene by scoring neurodegeneration phenotypes. Gene mapping strategies include meiotic and deficiency mapping that rely on these same assays can be followed by DNA sequencing to identify possible nucleotide changes in the gene of interest.

Modulation of Tau Subcellular Localization as a Tool to Investigate the Expression of Disease-related Genes

Tau is a microtubule binding protein expressed in neurons and its main known function is related to the maintenance of cytoskeletal stability. However, recent evidence indicated that Tau is present also in other subcellular compartments including the nucleus where it is implicated in DNA protection, in rRNA transcription, in the mobility of retrotransposons and in the structural organization of the nucleolus. We have recently demonstrated that nuclear Tau is involved in the expression of the VGluT1 gene, suggesting a molecular mechanism that could explain the pathological increase of glutamate release in the early stages of Alzheimer&#39;s disease. Until recently, the involvement of nuclear Tau in modulating the expression of target genes has been relatively uncertain and ambiguous due to technical limitations that prevented the exclusion of the contribution of cytoplasmic Tau or the effect of other downstream factors not related to nuclear Tau. To overcome this uncertainty, we developed a method to study the expression of target genes specifically modulated by the nuclear Tau protein. We employed a protocol that couples the use of localization signals and the subcellular fractionation, allowing the exclusion of the interference from the cytoplasmic Tau molecules. Most notably, the protocol is easy and is composed of classic and reliable methods that are broadly applicable to study the nuclear function of Tau in other cell types and cellular conditions.

Tau is a neuronal protein present both in the cytoplasm, where it binds microtubules, and in the nucleus, where it exerts unconventional functions including the modulation of Alzheimer&#39;s disease-related genes. Here, we describe a method to investigate the function of nuclear Tau while excluding any interferences coming from cytoplasmic Tau.
