Abstract Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats‐associated protein (CRISPR/Cas9), an adaptive microbial immune system, has been exploited as a robust, accurate, efficient and programmable method for genome targeting and editing. This innovative and revolutionary technique can play a significant role in animal modeling, in vivo genome

IMPORTANCE OF PLASMA E APOLYPROTEIN DOSAGE, OF GENETIC POLYMORPHISM AND LIPID PROFILE IN DIABETIC PATIENTS [PDF]
Apolipoproteine E (ApoE) is known for its ability to suppress atherosclerosis. Besides its activity to remove the remaining lipoproteins from plasma, ApoE is also known for its direct influence on the numerous cells of the vascular walls, immune system ...

The role of APOBEC3-induced mutations in the differential evolution of monkeypox virus [PDF]
Recent studies show that newly sampled monkeypox virus (MPXV) genomes exhibit mutations consistent with Apolipoprotein B mRNA Editing Catalytic Polypeptide-like3 (APOBEC3)-mediated editing, compared to MPXV genomes collected earlier. It is unclear whether these single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) result from APOBEC3-induced editing or are a ...

Principal Regression for High Dimensional Covariance Matrices [PDF]
This manuscript presents an approach to perform generalized linear regression with multiple high dimensional covariance matrices as the outcome. Model parameters are proposed to be estimated by maximizing a pseudo-likelihood. When the data are high dimensional, the normal likelihood function is ill-posed as the sample covariance matrix is rank ...

An Investigation of Hepatitis B Virus Genome using Markov Models [PDF]
The human genome encodes a family of editing enzymes known as APOBEC3 (apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like 3). Several family members, such as APO-BEC3G, APOBEC3F, and APOBEC3H haplotype II, exhibit activity against viruses such as HIV. These enzymes induce C-to-U mutations in the negative strand of viral genomes, resulting

Relationship of cognitive decline with glucocerebrosidase activity and amyloid‐beta 42 in DLB and PD
Abstract Objective Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson's disease (PD) share clinical, pathological, and genetic risk factors, including GBA1 and APOEε4 mutations. Biomarkers associated with the pathways of these mutations, such as glucocerebrosidase enzyme (GCase) activity and amyloid‐beta 42 (Aβ42) levels, may hold potential as predictive ...

Familial dysbetalipoproteinemia: highly atherogenic and underdiagnosed disorder
Familial dysbetalipoproteinemia (FD) is a genetic, highly atherogenic disorder. The penetrance of FD depends on the patient’s lifestyle and concomitant diseases. Despite the fact that FD was described almost half a century ago, it is still insufficiently

A deep belief network-based method to identify proteomic risk markers for Alzheimer disease [PDF]
While a large body of research has formally identified apolipoprotein E (APOE) as a major genetic risk marker for Alzheimer disease, accumulating evidence supports the notion that other risk markers may exist. The traditional Alzheimer-specific signature analysis methods, however, have not been able to make full use of rich protein expression data ...

Abstract Objectives This study sought to evaluate proteomic, metabolomic, and immune signatures in the cerebrospinal fluid of individuals with Down Syndrome Regression Disorder (DSRD). Methods A prospective case–control study comparing proteomic, metabolomic, and immune profiles in individuals with DSRD was performed.

Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is an exchangeable apolipoprotein that functions as a ligand for members of the LDL receptor family, promoting lipoprotein clearance from the circulation. Productive receptor binding requires that apoE adopt an LDL receptor-active
