  1. See pp. 412-420 (Chapter 14) of book Positional Cloning of Spinocerebellar Ataxia-1 (SCA-1) “Cloning genes (when you know nothing about the gene product) by determining the exact location of the locus on the chromosome”

  2. Ataxia = “loss of coordination” Nicholas Friedreich (Germany) first described an inherited ataxia (1860s, 1870s): Friedreich’s Ataxia

  3. Pierre Marie (French) observed 4 families with different symptoms (1893): Marie’s Ataxia …but now generally known as SCA

  4. “Graft-vs-Host Disease” involving skin lesions in a patient following bone marrow transplantation for myelodysplasia. Image courtesy of Romeo A. Mandanas

  5. White Blood Cells of Immune System Capable of recognizing HLA proteins that are located on the outer surfaces of most other cells Human Leukocyte Antigens HLA Many different loci… With numerous alleles at each locus… A = 19 alleles B = 20 alleles

  6. Japanese researchers in the 1970s found a family with 5 children, where 3 had Marie’s Ataxia. Lets look at their data….. From:Hereditary Ataxia and the HLA Genotypes. New England Journal of Medicine, 1974, Vol. 291:154.

  7. “This result could easily be interpreted if we assume the ataxia gene locus to be on the sixth chromosome near the HLA loci.”Yakura et al., 1974 (Japan)

  8. From Somatic Cell Hybridization studies it was shown that all of the HLA loci are on Chromosome 6 ! “This result could easily be interpreted if we assume the ataxia gene locus to be on the sixth chromosome near the HLA loci.”Yakura et al., 1974 (Japan)

  11. 6 T 1 6 1T Translocation Exchange of chromosome parts Francke et al. 1977 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (Vol. 74:1147)

  12. 6 T 1 6 1T UC-San Diego,1977 Got cell lines from a family with a translocation. 6T line = no HLA 1T line = had HLA ! Concluded that the HLA genes lie on that segment of Chromosome 6.

  13. HLA gene region on Chromosome 6 MHC = Major Histocompatability Complex

  14. stopped Notice that the alleles for Loci A & B did not get swapped, But the alleles for A & C did!

  15. Lots of loci in the HLA region

  16. 1977

  17. Linkage Analysis RFLP RFLP STRP Ranum et. al., 1991, American Journal of Human Genetics, (49:31). Done in Harry Orr’s lab.

  18. Normal Cerebellar Ataxia The Purkinje Cells which normally line up between the layers of the cerebellum (arrows) are lost in hereditary ataxia. First observed in SCA patients (post-mortem) in 1974. http://www.cvm.missouri.edu/ataxia/causes.htm

  19. Annals of Neurology, 1988. • Spinocerebellar ataxia: variable age of onset and linkage to human leukocyte antigen in a large kindred. • Zoghbi HY, Pollack MS, Lyons LA, Ferrell RE, Daiger SP, Beaudet A.Department of Pediatrics, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX 77030. • We studied a seven-generation kindred with autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) to assess linkage relationships to multiple human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loci on the short arm of chromosome 6. Age at onset, clinical features, and course of the disease are described. Although the mean age of onset was 34 years in this family, in 6 of 41 affected individuals onset was below 15 years of age and was accompanied by the unique clinical features of mental retardation and rapid progression of disease. Linkage studies were performed on 93 individuals, and the results show strong evidence for linkage of the SCA locus to the HLA loci. A maximum logarithm of the odds score of 5.83 was found at a recombination fraction of 0.12. This is the first documentation of childhood onset in the HLA-linked form of SCA. .

  27. Once they found an RFLP probe that appeared to be close to the SCA gene they used that same probe to screen Genomic Libraries from healthy and ataxic people, as well as to screen a cDNA Library (made from fetal brain tissue).

  28. Nature Genetics, 1993 Muscular Dystrophy gene = 2.4 million bases

  29. Southern Blot showing “Anticipation” Onset =4 years 23 x 3 = 69 bases Onset =30 years Normal

  30. 6-39 repeats in healthy people

  31. In: Nature, 1994 (7:513) mRNA = less than 1% of gene

  32. Where is the Polyglutamine (Poly Q) Tract?

  33. Where is the Polyglutamine (Poly Q) Tract? 30 Q

  34. Lets continue the story of SCA as told by Dr. Huda Zoghbi

  35. Nature Genetics, 1993 So, Positional Cloning techniques were used to isolate a 1,200,000 bp piece of Chromosome #6. Less than 1% of this region actually codes for the SCA-1 transcript (mRNA).

  36. Globin gene Healthy Anemic Use a probe from for this region For Sickle Cell Anemia

  37. Probes are valuable for identifying the mutations in a well-characterized gene A and B are homologous chromosomes Not cut here You can think of “B” as “little a” Southern Blots (of genomic DNA) following digestion with EcoRI enzyme

  38. And how does that help Positionally Clone genes??

  39. EcoRI cuts the “A” allele in half, and Probe 3 allows you to visualize that. Lets pretend the “A” allele is the diseased allele. A and B are homologous chromosomes Not cut here You can think of “B” as “little a” If you made a genomic library of a person with a RFLP-mapped disease, you could use Probe 3 to screen the library. The other two probes would work too, but be further away from mutation.

  40. that reveals RFLP

  41. The RE site for this disease must be here Healthy Diseased Diseased Healthy Diseased Healthy

  42. So, the hard part is finding the right combination of RE and probe….which is one reason why Postional Cloning is so slow and expensive. If this band is always present in people with the disease then the probe could be useful in screening a library.

  43. One way of finding the best probe is: “Chromosome Walking” If linkage (by studying pedigree analysis) can be shown for a disease (that is already cloned), then begin there, and “walk” to the gene of interest.

  44. Linked gene here Different library made with different RE Each time you make a new probe, use that to look for RFLPs in healthy vs. diseased people. Different library made with different RE
