Ts65DnDown Syndrome mouse model
T1DS/T2N -twin 1 down syndrome/twin 2 normal
MZ1/MZ2
-supernumerary
RPKM-reads per kilobase million -gives you a normal for comparison
LADs are overtranscribed in down syndrome when they should have low expression
Think replication time and transcription levels are correlated, genes transcribed earlier are expressed lower and later transcribed are more expressed
Not just the overexpression of chromosome 21. It is the consequence of these products causing the LADs to be expressed higher. Effects of changing chromatin structure
1/31
Molecular characterization of Ts65Dn
Ts65Dn is the mouse model for trisomy 21 in humans
distal= further away from the centromere
Think that chromosome 16 and 17 were combined via NHEJ but there is a small overlap region of 7 bp that might have had a role in determining the 16/17 breakpoint
writing as an introduction, not necessarily concerned with what we're going to do in the future
2/2
We are examining cDNA from the mouse models ~20 million reads per file
Separate each read based on barcode=3x nucleotide at end of chain
Trimmomatic used to delete barcode
use RSEM to map reads to genes and counts how many reads an identified gene is counted
DEseq2- enter name of data then click which data you want and run by execute
2/7
Use gene plot in galaxy after running DEseq 2. look for outliers and to search genes, use http://www.informatics.jax.org/batch/summary and delete decimals from gene number
disomic vs trisomic-looking for differences in expression, gene names, fold change=look at log2(FC), wald stats used to sort, base mean=reads per kilobase million
Which dataset is numerator?-first data set is numerator and second is denominator
Want to generate KEGG pathway maps for genes of interest, not looking at methylation differences, cant do with this data. We are looking at differential expression. Maternal Cont compared to Maternal Ts65Dn
to remove decimals in excel =left(A1, 18)
Save tab files as opening in excel and use excel to sort and whatnot. p-value cutoff=0.05 adjusted p-values are adjusted for the multiple tests that are performed
We will use the p-values with a value of less than 0.0001. This provides 105 genes of interest in the dataset of maternal trisomic vs maternal disomic
We took the genes and ran them through the naming program and export to excel
2/9/17
gene interaction tool
Sorted genes of interest by chromosome location
log2(FC)= 2^that number = how much more expressed gene is
Filtered dataset by p-value of less than 0.0001 using workflow in galaxy, then sorted these data on log2(FC) greater than abs(.5)-using workflow to add filters and trims, etc.
2/16-working with visualizations in galaxy and after having found genes of interest, we are looking through these genes, trying to hone in on a few. We are using the p-values and fold change to determine which genes are expressed differently in the trisomic vs disomic
also, how do we get rid off the control variables between maternal and paternal
We are comparing Disomic maternal vs disomic paternal first to get a baseline difference in source dna and expression levels. Then we are comparing Trisomic maternal vs trisomic paternal to find differently expressed genes between these two. The next comparison will be between the Trisomic comp vs disomic comp to eliminate any differently expressed genes due to simply maternal vs paternal sources. setting our baseline from the disomic comparisons. We also will compare trisomic maternal to disomic maternal and trisomic paternal to disomic paternal

filter 1:c6<0.0001 filter 2: c3>=0.5 or c3<=-0.5 trim: column 1 everything to 18
Compared Trisomy maternal vs trisomy paternal, this resulted in 99 differently expressed genes, 10 of which were also differently expressed in the trisomy maternal vs disomic maternal. The whole dataset of trisomic paternal and maternal was run against the disomic maternal and paternal
could use two sample t test or one sample to explore stats of these differences between trisomic maternal and paternal and trisomic vs disomic

TIAM1 -cardiac muscle hypertrophy, Wnt signalling pathway
Heart defects and tiam1 Congenetial heart failure and tiam1 contributes to heart defects in a gene dosage manner
greater methylation in general in DS, along with faster fetal acquisition of methylation-RUNX1, which is crucial for hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell, NKT and T-cell development.

Information about ESCs
Changing Epigenetics during differentiation-implies that this might not be the best model due to epigenetic changes that would occur in these cells down the line in development -gain of histone modification is tissue specific and associated with a loss in methylation, the opposite is rarely seen. hypomethylation at specific loci are important in cell lineage fate
Sex Specific Effects on ESC transcriptome and epigenome -hormonal influence on epigenetic regulation, can be carried on even with new neuronal genesis

Why do we see so many genes differentially expressed between maternal trisomic and paternal trisomic that are not on the triplicated region of 17^16? What role do the triplicated genes play on the expression of these genes on other chromosomes. Does the triplicated region affect the geography of the nuclear DNA enough to cause these changes?
