    De novo mutations in histone-modifying genes in congenital heart disease (2013)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)

    Publication Date: 2013-05-15
    Description: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most frequent birth defect, affecting 0.8% of live births. Many cases occur sporadically and impair reproductive fitness, suggesting a role for de novo mutations. Here we compare the incidence of de novo mutations in 362 severe CHD cases and 264 controls by analysing exome sequencing of parent-offspring trios. CHD cases show a significant excess of protein-altering de novo mutations in genes expressed in the developing heart, with an odds ratio of 7.5 for damaging (premature termination, frameshift, splice site) mutations. Similar odds ratios are seen across the main classes of severe CHD. We find a marked excess of de novo mutations in genes involved in the production, removal or reading of histone 3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methylation, or ubiquitination of H2BK120, which is required for H3K4 methylation. There are also two de novo mutations in SMAD2, which regulates H3K27 methylation in the embryonic left-right organizer. The combination of both activating (H3K4 methylation) and inactivating (H3K27 methylation) chromatin marks characterizes 'poised' promoters and enhancers, which regulate expression of key developmental genes. These findings implicate de novo point mutations in several hundreds of genes that collectively contribute to approximately 10% of severe CHD.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3706629/" 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/PMC3706629/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zaidi, Samir -- Choi, Murim -- Wakimoto, Hiroko -- Ma, Lijiang -- Jiang, Jianming -- Overton, John D -- Romano-Adesman, Angela -- Bjornson, Robert D -- Breitbart, Roger E -- Brown, Kerry K -- Carriero, Nicholas J -- Cheung, Yee Him -- Deanfield, John -- DePalma, Steve -- Fakhro, Khalid A -- Glessner, Joseph -- Hakonarson, Hakon -- Italia, Michael J -- Kaltman, Jonathan R -- Kaski, Juan -- Kim, Richard -- Kline, Jennie K -- Lee, Teresa -- Leipzig, Jeremy -- Lopez, Alexander -- Mane, Shrikant M -- Mitchell, Laura E -- Newburger, Jane W -- Parfenov, Michael -- Pe'er, Itsik -- Porter, George -- Roberts, Amy E -- Sachidanandam, Ravi -- Sanders, Stephan J -- Seiden, Howard S -- State, Mathew W -- Subramanian, Sailakshmi -- Tikhonova, Irina R -- Wang, Wei -- Warburton, Dorothy -- White, Peter S -- Williams, Ismee A -- Zhao, Hongyu -- Seidman, Jonathan G -- Brueckner, Martina -- Chung, Wendy K -- Gelb, Bruce D -- Goldmuntz, Elizabeth -- Seidman, Christine E -- Lifton, Richard P -- 5U54HG006504/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- F30 HL123238/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- P30 HD018655/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM007205/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- U01 HG006546/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL098123/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL098147/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL098153/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL098162/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL098163/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01-HL098123/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01-HL098147/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01-HL098153/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01-HL098162/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01-HL098163/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01-HL098188/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG006504/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- England -- Nature. 2013 Jun 13;498(7453):220-3. doi: 10.1038/nature12141.

    Cntnap4 differentially contributes to GABAergic and dopaminergic synaptic transmission (2014)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-05-30
    Description: Although considerable evidence suggests that the chemical synapse is a lynchpin underlying affective disorders, how molecular insults differentially affect specific synaptic connections remains poorly understood. For instance, Neurexin 1a and 2 (NRXN1 and NRXN2) and CNTNAP2 (also known as CASPR2), all members of the neurexin superfamily of transmembrane molecules, have been implicated in neuropsychiatric disorders. However, their loss leads to deficits that have been best characterized with regard to their effect on excitatory cells. Notably, other disease-associated genes such as BDNF and ERBB4 implicate specific interneuron synapses in psychiatric disorders. Consistent with this, cortical interneuron dysfunction has been linked to epilepsy, schizophrenia and autism. Using a microarray screen that focused upon synapse-associated molecules, we identified Cntnap4 (contactin associated protein-like 4, also known as Caspr4) as highly enriched in developing murine interneurons. In this study we show that Cntnap4 is localized presynaptically and its loss leads to a reduction in the output of cortical parvalbumin (PV)-positive GABAergic (gamma-aminobutyric acid producing) basket cells. Paradoxically, the loss of Cntnap4 augments midbrain dopaminergic release in the nucleus accumbens. In Cntnap4 mutant mice, synaptic defects in these disease-relevant neuronal populations are mirrored by sensory-motor gating and grooming endophenotypes; these symptoms could be pharmacologically reversed, providing promise for therapeutic intervention in psychiatric disorders.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4281262/" 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/PMC4281262/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Karayannis, T -- Au, E -- Patel, J C -- Kruglikov, I -- Markx, S -- Delorme, R -- Heron, D -- Salomon, D -- Glessner, J -- Restituito, S -- Gordon, A -- Rodriguez-Murillo, L -- Roy, N C -- Gogos, J A -- Rudy, B -- Rice, M E -- Karayiorgou, M -- Hakonarson, H -- Keren, B -- Huguet, G -- Bourgeron, T -- Hoeffer, C -- Tsien, R W -- Peles, E -- Fishell, G -- NS30989/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS50220/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P01 NS074972/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 DA033811/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH071679/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS030989/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS036362/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS050220/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS074972/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS081297/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- England -- Nature. 2014 Jul 10;511(7508):236-40.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24870235" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The landscape of recombination in African Americans (2011)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-07-22
    Description: Recombination, together with mutation, gives rise to genetic variation in populations. Here we leverage the recent mixture of people of African and European ancestry in the Americas to build a genetic map measuring the probability of crossing over at each position in the genome, based on about 2.1 million crossovers in 30,000 unrelated African Americans. At intervals of more than three megabases it is nearly identical to a map built in Europeans. At finer scales it differs significantly, and we identify about 2,500 recombination hotspots that are active in people of West African ancestry but nearly inactive in Europeans. The probability of a crossover at these hotspots is almost fully controlled by the alleles an individual carries at PRDM9 (P value 〈 10(-245)). We identify a 17-base-pair DNA sequence motif that is enriched in these hotspots, and is an excellent match to the predicted binding target of PRDM9 alleles common in West Africans and rare in Europeans. Sites of this motif are predicted to be risk loci for disease-causing genomic rearrangements in individuals carrying these alleles. More generally, this map provides a resource for research in human genetic variation and evolution.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3154982/" 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/PMC3154982/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hinch, Anjali G -- Tandon, Arti -- Patterson, Nick -- Song, Yunli -- Rohland, Nadin -- Palmer, Cameron D -- Chen, Gary K -- Wang, Kai -- Buxbaum, Sarah G -- Akylbekova, Ermeg L -- Aldrich, Melinda C -- Ambrosone, Christine B -- Amos, Christopher -- Bandera, Elisa V -- Berndt, Sonja I -- Bernstein, Leslie -- Blot, William J -- Bock, Cathryn H -- Boerwinkle, Eric -- Cai, Qiuyin -- Caporaso, Neil -- Casey, Graham -- Cupples, L Adrienne -- Deming, Sandra L -- Diver, W Ryan -- Divers, Jasmin -- Fornage, Myriam -- Gillanders, Elizabeth M -- Glessner, Joseph -- Harris, Curtis C -- Hu, Jennifer J -- Ingles, Sue A -- Isaacs, William -- John, Esther M -- Kao, W H Linda -- Keating, Brendan -- Kittles, Rick A -- Kolonel, Laurence N -- Larkin, Emma -- Le Marchand, Loic -- McNeill, Lorna H -- Millikan, Robert C -- Murphy, Adam -- Musani, Solomon -- Neslund-Dudas, Christine -- Nyante, Sarah -- Papanicolaou, George J -- Press, Michael F -- Psaty, Bruce M -- Reiner, Alex P -- Rich, Stephen S -- Rodriguez-Gil, Jorge L -- Rotter, Jerome I -- Rybicki, Benjamin A -- Schwartz, Ann G -- Signorello, Lisa B -- Spitz, Margaret -- Strom, Sara S -- Thun, Michael J -- Tucker, Margaret A -- Wang, Zhaoming -- Wiencke, John K -- Witte, John S -- Wrensch, Margaret -- Wu, Xifeng -- Yamamura, Yuko -- Zanetti, Krista A -- Zheng, Wei -- Ziegler, Regina G -- Zhu, Xiaofeng -- Redline, Susan -- Hirschhorn, Joel N -- Henderson, Brian E -- Taylor, Herman A Jr -- Price, Alkes L -- Hakonarson, Hakon -- Chanock, Stephen J -- Haiman, Christopher A -- Wilson, James G -- Reich, David -- Myers, Simon R -- 090532/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- CA060691/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA092447/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA100374/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA100598/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA1116460/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA1116460S1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA121197/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA121197S2/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA127219/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA1326792/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA140388/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA141716/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA148085/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA148127/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA22453/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA54281/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA55769/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA58223/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA63464/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA68485/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA68578/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA77305/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA87895/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA88164/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- ES007784/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- ES011126/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- ES06717/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- ES10126/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- GM08016/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM091332/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HD33175/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HG004726/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- HHSN268200960009C/PHS HHS/ -- HL084107/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- N01-HC-65226/HC/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- P30 ES010126/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA052689/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA092447/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG006399/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL084107-04/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01-CA73629/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HG004168/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HG004168-03/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- Intramural NIH HHS/ -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2011 Jul 20;476(7359):170-5. doi: 10.1038/nature10336.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics, Oxford University, Roosevelt Drive, Oxford OX3 7BN, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21775986" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
