Migraine Aura A Knockin Mouse with a Knockout Message
Migraine aura is a sometimes disabling disorder of the brain that involves significant neurological symptoms in about 30% of patients. In this issue of Neuron, van den Maagdenberg et al. characterize a mouse with a knockin mutation known to cause familial hemiplegic migraine and provide evidence that a lowered threshold to the triggering of CSD may account for the devastating phenotype of famil...
متن کاملImproved methods for the generation of human gene knockout and knockin cell lines
Recent studies have demonstrated the utility of recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vectors in the generation of human knockout cell lines. The efficiency with which such cell lines can be generated using rAAV, in comparison with more extensively described plasmid-based approaches, has not been directly tested. In this report, we demonstrate that targeting constructs delivered by rAAV vec...
متن کاملA Rapid FACS-Based Strategy to Isolate Human Gene Knockin and Knockout Clones
Gene targeting protocols for mammalian cells remain inefficient and labor intensive. Here we describe FASTarget, a rapid, fluorescent cell sorting based strategy to isolate rare gene targeting events in human somatic cells. A fluorescent protein is used as a means for direct selection of targeted clones obviating the need for selection and outgrowth of drug resistant clones. Importantly, the us...
متن کاملGSK-3β heterozygous knockout is cardioprotective in a knockin mouse model of familial dilated cardiomyopathy.
Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) plays a central role in both cardiac physiology and pathology. Herein we want to clarify the role of GSK-3β in familial dilated cardiomyopathy. We generated a mouse model carrying a heterozygous knockout mutation of GSK-3β (GSK-3β(+/-) KO), together with a ΔK210 knockin mutation in cardiac troponin T (ΔK210 cTnT KI), which was proved to be one of the genetic...
متن کاملNeuronal nicotinic receptors: insights gained from gene knockout and knockin mutant mice.
Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are ligand-gated ion channels that subserve a range of functions in the brain and peripheral nervous system. They are pentamers variously composed of alpha (alpha2-alpha10) and beta subunits (beta2-beta4). Pharmacological and ligand-binding studies have shown that the different subunits vary in their distribution and channel properties, but precise del...
