Mutation analysis of TCOF1 gene in Chinese Treacher Collins syndrome patients [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundTreacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a rare autosomal dominant or recessive disorder, that involves unique bilateral craniofacial malformations. The phenotypes of TCS are extremely diverse. Interventional surgery can improve hearing loss and facial deformity in TCS patients.MethodWe recruited seven TCS families.

CRISPR/Cas9 allows efficient and complete knock-in of a destabilization domain-tagged essential protein in a human cell line, allowing rapid knockdown of protein function. [PDF]
Although modulation of protein levels is an important tool for study of protein function, it is difficult or impossible to knockdown or knockout genes that are critical for cell growth or viability.

Sequence Analysis, Identification of Evolutionary Conserved Motifs and Expression Analysis of Murine tcof1 Provide Further Evidence for a Potential Function for the Gene and Its Human Homologue, TCOF1 [PDF]
The gene mutated in Treacher Collins syndrome, an autosomal dominant disorder of facial development, has recently been cloned. While the function of the predicted protein, Treacle, is unknown, it has been shown to share a number of features with the highly phosphorylated nucleolar phosphoproteins, which play a role in nucleolar-cytoplasmic transport ...

TRF2 recruits nucleolar protein TCOF1 to coordinate telomere transcription and replication
Telomeres are transcribed into telomeric RNA termed as TERRA. However, the transcription itself and excessive TERRA may interfere with telomere replication during S phase. The mechanism that coordinates telomere transcription and replication is unknown.

Mutational Analysis of TCOF1, GSC, and HOXA2 in Patients With Treacher Collins Syndrome [PDF]
Treacher Collins syndrome is an autosomal dominant craniofacial malformation mainly caused by mutations in the TCOF1 gene. Few cases have been observed in the Chinese population. Herein, the authors report the mutational analysis of TCOF1, GSC, and HOXA2 to determine the mutational features of the 3 genes in Chinese patients with Treacher Collins ...

Tissue specific roles for the ribosome biogenesis factor Wdr43 in zebrafish development. [PDF]
During vertebrate craniofacial development, neural crest cells (NCCs) contribute to most of the craniofacial pharyngeal skeleton. Defects in NCC specification, migration and differentiation resulting in malformations in the craniofacial complex are ...
