Divergent Levels of Marker Chromosomes in an hiPSC-Based Model of Psychosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the process of generating presumably clonal human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from two carriers of a complex structural rearrangement, each having a psychotic disorder, we also serendipitously generated isogenic non-carrier control hiPSCs, finding that the rearrangement occurs as an extrachromosomal marker (mar) element. All confirmed carrier hiPSCs and differentiated neural progenitor cell lines were found to be mosaic. We caution that mar elements may be difficult to functionally evaluate in hiPSC cultures using currently available methods, as it is difficult to distinguish cells with and without mar elements in live mosaic cultures.

Transposons and their application in plant pathology
Prokaryote, viruses, and eukaryotes chromosomes contain fragments of DNA can move and migrate to other parts of the chromosome calling as Transposition and play an important role in new combinations of gene production. DNA fragments carrier the genes or transposons are the transposable elements that may called gene mutant also. Transposons can move to another position of the same chromosome or ...
متن کاملAssociation mapping for resistance to powdery mildew in oriental tobacco (Nicotiana tabaccum L.) germplasm
Powdery mildew caused by Erysiphe cichoracearum is an important fungal disease which threatens tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) production. The objective of this study was to determine DNA markers linked to genomic regions associated with resistance to powdery mildew in tobacco through the association mapping approach. Seventy tobacco geno-types were fingerprinted using 26 simple se-quence repeat...
متن کاملQuantitative trait loci for body weight and carcass traits in Japanese quail
Body weight (BW) and carcass traits are complex and important economic traits that may benefit from the implementation of MAS. The objective of the current study was to identify QTL associated with BW and carcass traits in an experimental half-sib cross of Japanese quails selected for BW at 4 weeks of age. Body weight and carcass traits were measured in the F2 population. Total F2 individuals a...
