CLN3 by allele specific PCR
نویسنده
چکیده
The recent isolation of the CLN3 gene involved in Batten disease (juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis) creates possibilities for direct detection of mutations which can confirm or indicate the clinical diagnosis of Batten disease. We have designed a rapid and reliable allele specific PCR test for the detection of the major deletion, which can be used in carrier diagnosis, presymptomatic diagnosis, and prenatal diagnosis.

The Cln3-Cdc28 kinase complex of S. cerevisiae is regulated by proteolysis and phosphorylation.
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, several of the proteins involved in the Start decision have been identified; these include the Cdc28 protein kinase and three cyclin-like proteins, Cln1, Cln2 and Cln3. We find that Cln3 is a very unstable, low abundance protein. In contrast, the truncated Cln3-1 protein is stable, suggesting that the PEST-rich C-terminal third of Cln3 is necessary for rapid turnove...

Background and purpose: Molecular detection of antibiotic resistance in clinical strains of M.tuberculosis is of great importance. In this study, we developed a method for rapid detection of mutations resistant to the rifabutin antibiotic resistant gene. Material and methods: In this study 40 clinical isolates of M.tuberculosis including 12 resistant and 28 susceptible isolates to rifabutin we...
متن کاملTranscript and in silico analysis of CLN3 in juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis and associated mouse models.
Juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (JNCL), commonly known as Batten disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder of childhood characterized by blindness, seizures, motor and cognitive decline, leading to death in early adulthood. Mutations within the CLN3 gene, which encodes a putative lysosomal protein of unknown function, are the underlying cause of JNCL. Over 85% of JNCL patient...
متن کاملOsmotic Stress Changes the Expression and Subcellular Localization of the Batten Disease Protein CLN3
Juvenile CLN3 disease (formerly known as juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis) is a fatal childhood neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in the CLN3 gene. CLN3 encodes a putative lysosomal transmembrane protein with unknown function. Previous cell culture studies using CLN3-overexpressing vectors and/or anti-CLN3 antibodies with questionable specificity have also localized CLN3 in ...
