    Description: The cytokine interleukin-21 (IL-21) is closely related to IL-2 and IL-15, and their receptors all share the common cytokine receptor gamma chain, gammac, which is mutated in humans with X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency disease (XSCID). We demonstrate that, although mice deficient in the receptor for IL-21 (IL-21R) have normal lymphoid development, after immunization, these animals have higher production of the immunoglobulin IgE, but lower IgG1, than wild-type animals. Mice lacking both IL-4 and IL-21R exhibited a significantly more pronounced phenotype, with dysgammaglobulinemia, characterized primarily by a severely impaired IgG response. Thus, IL-21 has a significant influence on the regulation of B cell function in vivo and cooperates with IL-4. This suggests that these gammac-dependent cytokines may be those whose inactivation is primarily responsible for the B cell defect in humans with XSCID.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ozaki, Katsutoshi -- Spolski, Rosanne -- Feng, Carl G -- Qi, Chen-Feng -- Cheng, Jun -- Sher, Alan -- Morse, Herbert C 3rd -- Liu, Chengyu -- Schwartzberg, Pamela L -- Leonard, Warren J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Nov 22;298(5598):1630-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892-1674, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12446913" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Usher syndrome type IIa (OMIM 276901), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by moderate to severe sensorineural hearing loss and progressive retinitis pigmentosa, maps to the long arm of human chromosome 1q41 between markers AFM268ZD1 and AFM144XF2. Three biologically important mutations in Usher syndrome type IIa patients were identified in a gene (USH2A) isolated from this critical region. The USH2A gene encodes a protein with a predicted size of 171.5 kilodaltons that has laminin epidermal growth factor and fibronectin type III motifs; these motifs are most commonly observed in proteins comprising components of the basal lamina and extracellular matrixes and in cell adhesion molecules.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Eudy, J D -- Weston, M D -- Yao, S -- Hoover, D M -- Rehm, H L -- Ma-Edmonds, M -- Yan, D -- Ahmad, I -- Cheng, J J -- Ayuso, C -- Cremers, C -- Davenport, S -- Moller, C -- Talmadge, C B -- Beisel, K W -- Tamayo, M -- Morton, C C -- Swaroop, A -- Kimberling, W J -- Sumegi, J -- 5PO1 DC01813-05/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- DC03402/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- EY07003/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Jun 12;280(5370):1753-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology and Microbiology, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE 68198, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9624053" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Soybean (Glycine max) is one of the most important crop plants for seed protein and oil content, and for its capacity to fix atmospheric nitrogen through symbioses with soil-borne microorganisms. We sequenced the 1.1-gigabase genome by a whole-genome shotgun approach and integrated it with physical and high-density genetic maps to create a chromosome-scale draft sequence assembly. We predict 46,430 protein-coding genes, 70% more than Arabidopsis and similar to the poplar genome which, like soybean, is an ancient polyploid (palaeopolyploid). About 78% of the predicted genes occur in chromosome ends, which comprise less than one-half of the genome but account for nearly all of the genetic recombination. Genome duplications occurred at approximately 59 and 13 million years ago, resulting in a highly duplicated genome with nearly 75% of the genes present in multiple copies. The two duplication events were followed by gene diversification and loss, and numerous chromosome rearrangements. An accurate soybean genome sequence will facilitate the identification of the genetic basis of many soybean traits, and accelerate the creation of improved soybean varieties.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schmutz, Jeremy -- Cannon, Steven B -- Schlueter, Jessica -- Ma, Jianxin -- Mitros, Therese -- Nelson, William -- Hyten, David L -- Song, Qijian -- Thelen, Jay J -- Cheng, Jianlin -- Xu, Dong -- Hellsten, Uffe -- May, Gregory D -- Yu, Yeisoo -- Sakurai, Tetsuya -- Umezawa, Taishi -- Bhattacharyya, Madan K -- Sandhu, Devinder -- Valliyodan, Babu -- Lindquist, Erika -- Peto, Myron -- Grant, David -- Shu, Shengqiang -- Goodstein, David -- Barry, Kerrie -- Futrell-Griggs, Montona -- Abernathy, Brian -- Du, Jianchang -- Tian, Zhixi -- Zhu, Liucun -- Gill, Navdeep -- Joshi, Trupti -- Libault, Marc -- Sethuraman, Anand -- Zhang, Xue-Cheng -- Shinozaki, Kazuo -- Nguyen, Henry T -- Wing, Rod A -- Cregan, Perry -- Specht, James -- Grimwood, Jane -- Rokhsar, Dan -- Stacey, Gary -- Shoemaker, Randy C -- Jackson, Scott A -- England -- Nature. 2010 Jan 14;463(7278):178-83. doi: 10.1038/nature08670.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉HudsonAlpha Genome Sequencing Center, 601 Genome Way, Huntsville, Alabama 35806, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20075913" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Significant fractions of eukaryotic genomes give rise to RNA, much of which is unannotated and has reduced protein-coding potential. The genomic origins and the associations of human nuclear and cytosolic polyadenylated RNAs longer than 200 nucleotides (nt) and whole-cell RNAs less than 200 nt were investigated in this genome-wide study. Subcellular addresses for nucleotides present in detected RNAs were assigned, and their potential processing into short RNAs was investigated. Taken together, these observations suggest a novel role for some unannotated RNAs as primary transcripts for the production of short RNAs. Three potentially functional classes of RNAs have been identified, two of which are syntenically conserved and correlate with the expression state of protein-coding genes. These data support a highly interleaved organization of the human transcriptome.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kapranov, Philipp -- Cheng, Jill -- Dike, Sujit -- Nix, David A -- Duttagupta, Radharani -- Willingham, Aarron T -- Stadler, Peter F -- Hertel, Jana -- Hackermuller, Jorg -- Hofacker, Ivo L -- Bell, Ian -- Cheung, Evelyn -- Drenkow, Jorg -- Dumais, Erica -- Patel, Sandeep -- Helt, Gregg -- Ganesh, Madhavan -- Ghosh, Srinka -- Piccolboni, Antonio -- Sementchenko, Victor -- Tammana, Hari -- Gingeras, Thomas R -- N01-CO-12400/CO/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U01HG003147/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Jun 8;316(5830):1484-8.

    Description: Kwashiorkor, an enigmatic form of severe acute malnutrition, is the consequence of inadequate nutrient intake plus additional environmental insults. To investigate the role of the gut microbiome, we studied 317 Malawian twin pairs during the first 3 years of life. During this time, half of the twin pairs remained well nourished, whereas 43% became discordant, and 7% manifested concordance for acute malnutrition. Both children in twin pairs discordant for kwashiorkor were treated with a peanut-based, ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF). Time-series metagenomic studies revealed that RUTF produced a transient maturation of metabolic functions in kwashiorkor gut microbiomes that regressed when administration of RUTF was stopped. Previously frozen fecal communities from several discordant pairs were each transplanted into gnotobiotic mice. The combination of Malawian diet and kwashiorkor microbiome produced marked weight loss in recipient mice, accompanied by perturbations in amino acid, carbohydrate, and intermediary metabolism that were only transiently ameliorated with RUTF. These findings implicate the gut microbiome as a causal factor in kwashiorkor.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3667500/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3667500/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Smith, Michelle I -- Yatsunenko, Tanya -- Manary, Mark J -- Trehan, Indi -- Mkakosya, Rajhab -- Cheng, Jiye -- Kau, Andrew L -- Rich, Stephen S -- Concannon, Patrick -- Mychaleckyj, Josyf C -- Liu, Jie -- Houpt, Eric -- Li, Jia V -- Holmes, Elaine -- Nicholson, Jeremy -- Knights, Dan -- Ursell, Luke K -- Knight, Rob -- Gordon, Jeffrey I -- DK078669/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK30292/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- F32 DK091044/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P01 DK078669/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P30 DK056341/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R37 DK030292/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- T32 HD049338/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- T32-HD049338/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- T35 DK074375/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2013 Feb 1;339(6119):548-54. doi: 10.1126/science.1229000.

    Description: Computational tools can markedly accelerate the rate at which murine genetic models can be analyzed. We developed a computational method for mapping phenotypic traits that vary among inbred strains onto haplotypic blocks. This method correctly predicted the genetic basis for strain-specific differences in several biologically important traits. It was also used to identify an allele-specific functional genomic element regulating H2-Ealpha gene expression. This functional element, which contained the binding sites for YY1 and a second transcription factor that is probably serum response factor, is located within the first intron of the H2-Ealpha gene. This computational method will greatly improve our ability to identify the genetic basis for a variety of phenotypic traits, ranging from qualitative trait information to quantitative gene expression data, which vary among inbred mouse strains.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Liao, Guochun -- Wang, Jianmei -- Guo, Jingshu -- Allard, John -- Cheng, Janet -- Ng, Anh -- Shafer, Steve -- Puech, Anne -- McPherson, John D -- Foernzler, Dorothee -- Peltz, Gary -- Usuka, Jonathan -- 1 R01 HG02322-01/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Oct 22;306(5696):690-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Genetics and Genomics, Roche Palo Alto, 3431 Hillview Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304-1397, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15499019" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Natural killer (NK) cells provide a central defense against viral infection by using inhibitory and activation receptors for major histocompatibility complex class I molecules as a means of controlling their activity. We show that genes encoding the inhibitory NK cell receptor KIR2DL3 and its human leukocyte antigen C group 1 (HLA-C1) ligand directly influence resolution of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. This effect was observed in Caucasians and African Americans with expected low infectious doses of HCV but not in those with high-dose exposure, in whom the innate immune response is likely overwhelmed. The data strongly suggest that inhibitory NK cell interactions are important in determining antiviral immunity and that diminished inhibitory responses confer protection against HCV.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Khakoo, Salim I -- Thio, Chloe L -- Martin, Maureen P -- Brooks, Collin R -- Gao, Xiaojiang -- Astemborski, Jacquie -- Cheng, Jie -- Goedert, James J -- Vlahov, David -- Hilgartner, Margaret -- Cox, Steven -- Little, Ann-Margeret -- Alexander, Graeme J -- Cramp, Matthew E -- O'Brien, Stephen J -- Rosenberg, William M C -- Thomas, David L -- Carrington, Mary -- DA00441/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- DA04334/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- DA13324/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- N01-CO-12400/CO/NCI NIH HHS/ -- N01-CP-01004/CP/NCI NIH HHS/ -- N01-CP-33002/CP/NCI NIH HHS/ -- N01-HD-4-3200/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Aug 6;305(5685):872-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Liver Group, Division of Infection, Inflammation, and Repair, Southampton University, Southampton 5016 6YD, UK. sik@soton.ac.uk〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15297676" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Sites of transcription of polyadenylated and nonpolyadenylated RNAs for 10 human chromosomes were mapped at 5-base pair resolution in eight cell lines. Unannotated, nonpolyadenylated transcripts comprise the major proportion of the transcriptional output of the human genome. Of all transcribed sequences, 19.4, 43.7, and 36.9% were observed to be polyadenylated, nonpolyadenylated, and bimorphic, respectively. Half of all transcribed sequences are found only in the nucleus and for the most part are unannotated. Overall, the transcribed portions of the human genome are predominantly composed of interlaced networks of both poly A+ and poly A- annotated transcripts and unannotated transcripts of unknown function. This organization has important implications for interpreting genotype-phenotype associations, regulation of gene expression, and the definition of a gene.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cheng, Jill -- Kapranov, Philipp -- Drenkow, Jorg -- Dike, Sujit -- Brubaker, Shane -- Patel, Sandeep -- Long, Jeffrey -- Stern, David -- Tammana, Hari -- Helt, Gregg -- Sementchenko, Victor -- Piccolboni, Antonio -- Bekiranov, Stefan -- Bailey, Dione K -- Ganesh, Madhavan -- Ghosh, Srinka -- Bell, Ian -- Gerhard, Daniela S -- Gingeras, Thomas R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 May 20;308(5725):1149-54.

    Description: Genotypic differences greatly influence susceptibility and resistance to disease. Understanding genotype-phenotype relationships requires that phenotypes be viewed as manifestations of network properties, rather than simply as the result of individual genomic variations. Genome sequencing efforts have identified numerous germline mutations, and large numbers of somatic genomic alterations, associated with a predisposition to cancer. However, it remains difficult to distinguish background, or 'passenger', cancer mutations from causal, or 'driver', mutations in these data sets. Human viruses intrinsically depend on their host cell during the course of infection and can elicit pathological phenotypes similar to those arising from mutations. Here we test the hypothesis that genomic variations and tumour viruses may cause cancer through related mechanisms, by systematically examining host interactome and transcriptome network perturbations caused by DNA tumour virus proteins. The resulting integrated viral perturbation data reflects rewiring of the host cell networks, and highlights pathways, such as Notch signalling and apoptosis, that go awry in cancer. We show that systematic analyses of host targets of viral proteins can identify cancer genes with a success rate on a par with their identification through functional genomics and large-scale cataloguing of tumour mutations. Together, these complementary approaches increase the specificity of cancer gene identification. Combining systems-level studies of pathogen-encoded gene products with genomic approaches will facilitate the prioritization of cancer-causing driver genes to advance the understanding of the genetic basis of human cancer.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3408847/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3408847/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rozenblatt-Rosen, Orit -- Deo, Rahul C -- Padi, Megha -- Adelmant, Guillaume -- Calderwood, Michael A -- Rolland, Thomas -- Grace, Miranda -- Dricot, Amelie -- Askenazi, Manor -- Tavares, Maria -- Pevzner, Samuel J -- Abderazzaq, Fieda -- Byrdsong, Danielle -- Carvunis, Anne-Ruxandra -- Chen, Alyce A -- Cheng, Jingwei -- Correll, Mick -- Duarte, Melissa -- Fan, Changyu -- Feltkamp, Mariet C -- Ficarro, Scott B -- Franchi, Rachel -- Garg, Brijesh K -- Gulbahce, Natali -- Hao, Tong -- Holthaus, Amy M -- James, Robert -- Korkhin, Anna -- Litovchick, Larisa -- Mar, Jessica C -- Pak, Theodore R -- Rabello, Sabrina -- Rubio, Renee -- Shen, Yun -- Singh, Saurav -- Spangle, Jennifer M -- Tasan, Murat -- Wanamaker, Shelly -- Webber, James T -- Roecklein-Canfield, Jennifer -- Johannsen, Eric -- Barabasi, Albert-Laszlo -- Beroukhim, Rameen -- Kieff, Elliott -- Cusick, Michael E -- Hill, David E -- Munger, Karl -- Marto, Jarrod A -- Quackenbush, John -- Roth, Frederick P -- DeCaprio, James A -- Vidal, Marc -- F32 GM095284/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- F32GM095284/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- K08 CA122833/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- K08 HL098361/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- K08HL098361/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- K25 HG006031/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- K25HG006031/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA050661/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01CA050661/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P50 HG004233/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- P50HG004233/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA047006/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA063113/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA066980/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA081135/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA085180/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA093804/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA131354/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG001715/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01CA047006/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01CA063113/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01CA066980/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01CA081135/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01CA085180/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01CA093804/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01CA131354/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01HG001715/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- T32 HL007208/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- T32HL007208/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01 CA141583/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U01CA141583/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2012 Jul 26;487(7408):491-5. doi: 10.1038/nature11288.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Genomic Analysis of Network Perturbations Center of Excellence in Genomic Science, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, Massachusetts 02215, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22810586" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
