Synthetic Genes for the Treatment of Propionic Acidemia (PA) Caused by Mutations in Propionyl-coA Carboxylase Alpha (PCCA)

Propionic acidemia (PA) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by mutations in either PCCA or PCCB. The products of these genes form the alpha and beta subunits of the enzyme propionyl-Co A carboxylase (PCC), a critically important mitochondrial enzyme involved in the catabolism of branched chain amino acids. NHGRI scientist have developed...

Viral Like Particles Based Chikungunya Vaccines

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is mosquito-borne alphavirus endemic in Africa, India, and Southeast Asia. In 2013 CHIKV infection has also emerged in the Caribbean and a pandemic of CHIKV has re-emerged in the Philippines following Typhoon Haiyan. Currently, there is no vaccine available for the prevention of CHIKV infection and no specific therapy exists...

Gs Alpha LoxP (Gnastm1Lsw) Mouse Model for Metabolism Studies

Generation of a floxed Gnsa gene for the G-protein Gs alpha (Gsalpha) for the construction of conditional knockout mice. The heterotrimeric G protein Gsalpha couples many receptors to adenylyl cyclase and is essential for hormone-stimulated cAMP generation. Previous mouse models with germ-line mutations in Gnas, the gene that encodes Gsalpha had limited...

Mice with a Floxed Allele of the alpha Subunit of the Heterotrimeric G Protein Go or Gi2

Heterotrimeric G proteins couple signals between GPCRs (G protein coupled receptors) and effectors such as adenylyl cyclase, phospholipase C and ion channels. Among the G proteins are Go and Gi2. Go is highly expressed in the brain and some endocrine tissues while Gi2 is widely expressed throughout the body. The ß?-subunits of Go interact with ion...
