G2CMine integrates the scientific findings of the Genes to Cognition Programme that utilised neuroproteomics, psychiatric genetics, high-throughput mouse gene targeting combined with behavioural and electrophysiological phenotyping and informatics in order to develop a general strategy for understanding cognition at the molecular, cellular and systems neuroscience levels.
G2CMine provides comprehensive Gene Ontology, Mammalian Phenotype Ontology, Human Phenotype Ontology, UniProt, genetic and protein interactions, and regional mouse brain expression results, together with the phenotyping results of the G2C Programme.
Mutation
HE14TG2a mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells were targeted with a vector containing Dusp7 flanking genomic DNA sequence. This replaced 3.2kb of Dusp7 genomic DNA (X106370900 to X106374100; Ensemble Build 75) with IRES-lacZ-neo cassette. Genomic DNA was isolated from ES cells by Wizard SV 96 Genomic DNA purification system (Promega Cat A2371). Correctly targeted ES cells were identified by long range PCR using Expand Long Template PCR system (Roche Cat 11681842001).
The correctly targeted ES cells were injected into C57BL/6 blastocysts to create chimeric mice, which were bred with 129S5 mice to generate heterozygous (+/–) Dusp7 mutant mice. Those F1 heterozygous mice had been backcrossed with 129S5 mice for 1-2 times before being used for intercrossing.
Generation of Dusp7 targeted mice. Dusp7 is a 3 exon gene encoding a protein which contains Rhodanese-like and Dual specificity phosphatase domains (top). We replaced Dusp7 exons 2-3 with a selection cassette in targeted mice which deleted the rest of the gene . Primers used for genotyping (a,b,x & w) and RT-PCR (y&z)
Genotyping
PCR genotyping of targeted Dusp7 mice using primer pairs (A-B) and (X-W) to amplify the wt and mutant alleles respectively.
Genotyping PCR consisted of a 317bp product amplified from the wild-type (wt) allele using a forward primer A (GTCTCTGTGGGATCCAGGTG) in the wt sequence deleted by targeted mutation and a reverse primer B (AGCCCAGCTGACACTAAACG) downstream of the cassette. A 550bp product was amplified from the targeted allele using forward primer X (TCGCCTTCTTGACGAGTTCT), within the selection cassette with reverse primer W (GCTATCAGCCGAATGGATGT). After enzymatic amplification for 35 cycles (45 seconds at 94 °C, 45 seconds at 55 °C, and 1 minute at 72 °C), the PCR products were size-fractionated on a 2% agarose gel in 1x Tris borate-EDTA buffer.
Expression
Total RNA was extracted from whole mouse brain using RNeasy Midi kit (Qiagen, Cat 75144). RT-PCR was performed by generating first strand cDNA and using a forward primer, Y (GGAGCCAGAACCTCTCTCAG), which anneals to exon 2 and a reverse primer, Z (GGCGTGGAGAAGTAGAGCTG), which anneals to exon 3. A product of 305bp was generated from WT cDNA and no product detected from homozygote cDNA where the exons have been replaced by the cassette.
Breeding
Birth of Dusp7-/- mice followed Mendelian ratios with 23% of offspring being homozygous knockouts. Genotypes of 3-week-old pups from Dusp7 +/- intercrosses identified 53 wt, 121 Dusp7 +/- and 52 Dusp7-/- progeny (Χ2 p= 0.565). Male and female Dusp7-/- mice developed normally to adulthood, exhibited normal body size and no gross abnormalities Dusp7 mice were maintained by backcrossing onto the 129S5/SvEvBrd background; heterozygous males and females were fertile and used to set up intercrosses to generate homozygous and wildtype mice to study.
Overview
Mutant mice showed little overall behavioural difference from wildtypes, with four of 16 behaviour variables significantly impacted by this mutation. In the rotarod task, one behavioural variable, RR naive fall time, was significantly increased in mutants. In the fear learning task, two behavioural variables of two were significantly impacted in mutants.
