A number of so-called lethal haplotypes, have been uncovered in Holstein Friesian cattle and, for at least seven of these, the causative mutations have been identified in candidate genes. However, several lethal haplotypes still remain elusive. Here we report the molecular genetic causes of lethal haplotype 5 (HH5) and cholesterol deficiency (CDH). A targeted enrichment for the known genomic regions, followed by massive parallel sequencing was used to interrogate for causative mutations in a case/control approach. Methods Targeted enrichment for the known genomic regions, followed by massive parallel sequencing was used in a case/control approach. PCRs for the causing mutations were developed and compared to routine imputing in 2,100 (HH5) and 3,100 (CDH) cattle. Results HH5 is caused by a deletion of 138kbp, spanning position 93,233kb to 93,371kb on chromosome 9 (BTA9), harboring only dimethyl-adenosine transferase 1 (TFB1M). The deletion breakpoints are flanked by bovine long interspersed nuclear elements Bov-B (upstream) and L1ME3 (downstream), suggesting a homologous recombination/deletion event. TFB1M di-methylates adenine residues in the hairpin loop at the 3'-end of mitochondrial 12S rRNA, being essential for synthesis and function of the small ribosomal subunit of mitochondria. Homozygous TFB1M(-/-) mice reportedly exhibit embryonal lethality with developmental defects. A 2.8% allelic frequency was determined for the German HF population. CDH results from a 1.3kbp insertion of an endogenous retrovirus (ERV2-1-LTR_BT) into exon 5 of the APOB gene at BTA11: 77,959kb. The insertion is flanked by 6bp target site duplications as described for insertions mediated by retroviral integrases. A premature stop codon in the open reading frame of APOB is generated, resulting in a truncation of the protein to a length of only < 140 amino acids. Such early truncations have been shown to cause an inability of chylomicron excretion from intestinal cells, resulting in malabsorption of cholesterol. The allelic frequency of this mutation in the German HF population was 6.7%, which is substantially higher than reported so far. Compared to PCR assays inferring the genetic variants directly, the routine imputing used so far showed a diagnostic sensitivity of as low as 91% (HH5) and 88% (CDH), with a high specificity for both (>= 99.7%). Conclusion With the availability of direct genetic tests it will now be possible to more effectively reduce the carrier frequency and ultimately eliminate the disorders from the HF populations. Beside this, the fact that repetitive genomic elements (RE) are involved in both diseases, underline the evolutionary importance of RE, which can be detrimental as here, but also advantageous over generations."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Open-Access-Publikationsfonds 2016"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1371/journal.pone.0154602"],["dc.identifier.isi","000375212600046"],["dc.identifier.pmid","27128314"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/13249"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/40795"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Public Library Science"],["dc.relation.issn","1932-6203"],["dc.rights.access","openAccess"],["dc.title","The Holstein Friesian Lethal Haplotype 5 (HH5) Results from a Complete Deletion of TBF1M and Cholesterol Deficiency (CDH) from an ERV-(LTR) Insertion into the Coding Region of APOB"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC WOS2017Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","549"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","4"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Cancer Cell"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","+"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","31"],["dc.contributor.author","Mohr, Sebastian"],["dc.contributor.author","Döbele, Carmen"],["dc.contributor.author","Comoglio, Federico"],["dc.contributor.author","Berg, Tobias"],["dc.contributor.author","Beck, Julia"],["dc.contributor.author","Bohnenberger, Hanibal"],["dc.contributor.author","Alexe, Gabriela"],["dc.contributor.author","Corso, Jasmin"],["dc.contributor.author","Ströbel, Philipp"],["dc.contributor.author","Wachter, Astrid"],["dc.contributor.author","Beißbarth, Tim"],["dc.contributor.author","Schnuetgen, Frank"],["dc.contributor.author","Cremer, Anjali"],["dc.contributor.author","Haetscher, Nadine"],["dc.contributor.author","Goellner, Stefanie"],["dc.contributor.author","Rouhi, Arefeh"],["dc.contributor.author","Palmqvist, Lars"],["dc.contributor.author","Rieger, Michael A."],["dc.contributor.author","Schroeder, Timm"],["dc.contributor.author","Boenig, Halvard"],["dc.contributor.author","Meuller-Tidow, Carsten"],["dc.contributor.author","Kuchenbauer, Florian"],["dc.contributor.author","Schuetz, Ekkehard"],["dc.contributor.author","Green, Anthony R."],["dc.contributor.author","Urlaub, Henning"],["dc.contributor.author","Stegmaier, Kimberly"],["dc.contributor.author","Humphries, R.

Key issues for the PK/PD relationships of this drug are: the role of metabolites, the usefulness of AUC versus predose levels, and the need to monitor the free concentration of MPA (f-MPA). Recent advances have revealed that, in addition to 7-O-MPAG, three additional MPA metabolites are present in the plasma of transplant recipients. One of these metabolites (M-2), identified as an acyl glucuronide of MPA, was found to inhibit IMPDH-II in vitro. This active metabolite was also found to cross-react in the Emit assay for MPA. In an ongoing multicenter study, the authors are evaluating the relevance of monitoring total (t-MPA) and free mycophenolic acid (f-MPA) in pediatric renal transplant recipients. As in adults, a time-dependant increase of t-MPA-AUC(0-12h) within the first 3 months posttransplant (35 versus 64 mg x L/h, 3 weeks versus 3 months respectively; daily dosage: 0.6 g/m(2) bid) was seen. Receiver operating characteristics curve analyses were used to test the ability of predose levels or AUC(0-12h) to discriminate between cases with no complications and those with acute rejection, adverse events (severe infections, leukopenia), or gastrointestinal disorders observed during the early posttransplant course, In agreement with observations in adults, a significant (p = 0.001) association was observed between AUC(0-12h) and acute rejection. A t-MPA-AUC(0-12h) of approximately 30-60 mg x L/h, as determined by HPLC, seems to be a reasonable target for the early posttransplant period. It remains to be elucidated whether regular predose level monitoring may be of more practical value. A higher incidence of rejection was observed at predose MPA concentrations less than or equal to 1 mg/L, as measured by HPLC. In contrast to t-MPA, f-MPA-AUC(0-12h) was significantly related to seven infections and leukopenia. The risk for severe adverse events was increased at f-MPA- AUC(0-12h) values greater than or equal to 600 mu g x Uh. On the basis of these data and the observed variability in the pharmacokinetics of MPA, the development of monitoring strategies for this drug appears to he promising."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1097/00007691-200002000-00004"],["dc.identifier.isi","000085149700004"],["dc.identifier.pmid","10688252"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/49780"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Lippincott Williams & Wilkins"],["dc.relation.issn","0163-4356"],["dc.title","Pharmacokinetic and metabolic investigations of mycophenolic acid in pediatric patients after renal transplantation: Implications for therapeutic drug monitoring"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC WOS2006Conference Paper [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","477"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","491"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","1069"],["dc.contributor.author","Schedel, Jörg"],["dc.contributor.author","Gödde, Andrea"],["dc.contributor.author","Schütz, Ekkehard"],["dc.contributor.author","Bongartz, Tim A."],["dc.contributor.author","Lang, Bernhard"],["dc.contributor.author","Schölmerich, Jürgen"],["dc.contributor.author","Müller-Ladner, Ulf"],["dc.date.accessioned","2018-11-07T10:30:44Z"],["dc.date.available","2018-11-07T10:30:44Z"],["dc.date.issued","2006"],["dc.description.abstract","As azathioprine is one of the standard immunosuppressive drugs used for treatment of patients with different chronic inflammatory diseases, the effect of the azathioprine metabolizing enzyme thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) activity on incidence of adverse events (AE) was examined. In addition, potential correlations between the concentration of the azathioprine metabolite 6-thioguanine nucleotide (6-TGN) in erythrocytes (RBC) and inflammatory disease activity as well as hematological AE were investigated. TPMT activities were investigated prospectively in 139 patients (35 mate, 104 female) with chronic inflammatory diseases [systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE, 38), progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS, 13), Wegener's granulomatosis (4), rheumatoid arthritis (RA, 5), and other chronic inflammatory diseases (79)].

The distribution of activities of TPMT in 139 patients showed a normal Gaussian distribution in the Caucasian population.

Its deficiency is mainly associated with the alleles PI S and PI Z and can lead to obstructive lung disease in adults and to liver cirrhosis during childhood. Methods: A multiplex PCR method has been established that uses two sets of primers to amplify the gene regions covering the PI S or PI Z mutations sites. Mutation detection was performed on the LightCycler by melting curve analysis of detection probes labeled with two different fluorescent dyes, LC-Red640 and LC-Red705. Results: Unequivocal genotyping results were obtained for all investigated samples in an assay time of similar to 30 min. The color compensation procedure greatly improved the readability of the resulting diagnostic melting curves. Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first report of simultaneous detection of two mutations in a single tube by PCR of genomic DNA and the use of two different reporter dyes with the LightCycler color compensation feature.

Damage in the neuronal cell layers (NeuN, NSE) was most severe after treatment with hiR6 (10(8) CFU/ml), followed by PG (100 mug/ml), pDNA (30 mug/ml), and LTA (30 mug/ml).

However, the determination of the origin and composition of a stain is in most cases a prerequisite for the final elucidation of a criminal case. Standard methodologies, e.g. amplification of DNA followed by microsatellite typing or mitochondrial DNA sequencing, are often not sensitive enough to result in sufficient and conclusive data. We have applied ultra-deep DNA sequencing using the 454 pyrosequencing technology on a whole genome amplified (WGA) environmental biological stain, which was analysed unsuccessfully with standard methodologies following WGA. With the combination of WGA and 454 pyrosequencing, however, we were able to generate 7242 single sequences with an average length of 195 bp. A total of 1,441,971 bp DNA sequences were generated and compared with public DNA sequence databases. Using RepeatMasker and basic logical alignment search tool (BLAST) searches against known microbial and mammalian genomes it was possible to determine the metagenomic composition of the stain, i.e. 4.2% bacterial DNA, 0.3% viral DNA, 2.7% fungal DNA, 10.3% mammalian repetitive DNA, 0.9% porcine DNA, 0.13% human DNA and 81.5% DNA of unknown origin. Our data demonstrate that 454 pyrosequencing has the potential to become a powerful tool not only in basic research but also in the metagenomic analysis of biological trace materials for forensic genetics.
