Disease relevance of NIPBL

 

Psychiatry related information on NIPBL

 

High impact information on NIPBL

  • CdLS individuals were recently shown to have heterozygous mutations in a previously uncharacterised gene, NIPBL, which encodes delangin, a homologue of fungal Scc2-type sister chromatid cohesion proteins and the Drosophila Nipped-B developmental regulator [3].
  • Mutations in the cohesin regulators NIPBL and ESCO2 are causative of the Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS) and Roberts or SC phocomelia syndrome, respectively [4].
  • Here we report direct observations of mitotic progression in individual HeLa cells after functional disruptions of hRad21, NIPBL, a loading factor for hRad21, and topo II alpha,beta by RNAi and a topo II inhibitor, ICRF-193 [5].
  • About 50% of CdLS patients have been found to have heterozygous mutations in the NIPBL gene and a few cases were recently found to be caused by mutations in the X-linked SMC1L1 gene [6].
  • We performed a mutation screening of all NIPBL coding exons by direct sequencing in 11 patients (nine sporadic and two familial cases) diagnosed with CdLS in Sweden and detected mutations in seven of the cases [6].
 

Biological context of NIPBL

 

Anatomical context of NIPBL

  • Using real-time quantitative PCR, we showed that NIPBL mRNA expression was lowered in patients' lymphocytes compared to control samples [12].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of NIPBL

  • METHODS: Nipped-B-like (NIPBL) gene mutations were screened using in denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography and sequencing in peripheral blood samples, from one of the affected siblings and her parents, as well as from a sperm sample from the father [13].
