High impact information on Gene Deletion

  • We generated mice with a targeted gene deletion of S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR), and show that they exhibit substantial increases in whole-cell S-nitrosylation, tissue damage, and mortality following endotoxic or bacterial challenge [9].
  • The pattern of expression of the USH1C protein is consistent with the clinical features exhibited by individuals with the contiguous gene deletion and with isolated Usher type 1C [10].
  • Targeted gene deletion of dHAND in mouse embryos resulted in embryonic lethality at embryonic day 10.5 from heart failure [11].
  • The high level of genomic detail in this region allowed us to characterize the first complete emerin gene deletion mutation that also involved a partial duplication of the nearby FLN1 gene [12].
  • We show that two mottled (Mo) alleles, dappled (Modp) and blotchy (Moblo), have abnormalities in the murine mRNA and that Modp has a partial gene deletion [13].

Associations of Gene Deletion with chemical compounds

  • Partial deficiencies of C4A and C4B, primarily due to gene deletions and homoexpression of C4A proteins, have a combined frequency of 31.6% [29].
  • 3. However, only some C4 null alleles are due to gene deletions, the remainder were thought to be nonexpressed genes [30].
  • This proposal was supported by our finding that individuals with these immunodeficiencies have in common a high incidence of C4A gene deletions and C2 rare gene alleles [31].
  • In contrast, the only biochemical abnormalities detected in subjects with the MAO-B gene deletion are a complete absence of platelet MAO-B activity and an increased urinary excretion of phenylethylamine [32].
  • We report the generation of GDPMP gene deletion mutants of this human pathogen that are devoid of detectable GDPMP activity and completely lack mannose-containing glycoproteins and glycolipids, such as lipophosphoglycan, proteophosphoglycans, glycosylphosphatidylinositol protein membrane anchors, glycoinositolphospholipids and N-glycans [33].
 

Gene context of Gene Deletion

  • To study the role of cytokines in long-term cardiac allografts we have used recipient mice with targeted gene deletions (-/-) in IFN-gamma, IL-4, or IL-10 [34].
  • This was confirmed in mice heterozygous for Ttf1 gene deletion, heretofore considered to be normal [35].
  • Our results show that there is a very high frequency (33%) of 21-hydroxylase deficiency haplotypes where functional CYP21B gene sequence has been removed as a consequence of CYP21 + C4 gene deletion while several haplotypes show evidence of gene addition [36].
  • Furthermore, the metabolic adaptation to a change in carbon source, a complex multistep process, was unaffected in a DJP1 gene deletion mutant [37].
  • We hypothesized that gross gene deletions and mutations in the PTEN promoter might alternatively account for a subset of apparently mutation-negative patients with CS and BRRS [38].
