First-of-Its-Kind Atlas Maps Complexities of Autoimmune Disease


 
Each person only has one genome, but different parts of the genome are active in different cell types. In the example above, a region of regulatory DNA (blue star) is active only in Cell A. This regulatory DNA controls expression level of Gene Y. Different people have different variations of that regulatory DNA sequence (AA, AG or GG genetic polymorphisms), which lead to different expression levels of Gene Y (top right red graph). This type of data was used to build the ImmuNexUT database, which will allow experts to understand how DNA sequence differences lead to changes in gene expression and cause different immune system diseases.

Resource Links Gene Variants with Immune System Regulation and Immune-Mediated Diseases


Resource Links Gene Variants with Immune System Regulation and Immune-Mediated Diseases
April 30, 2021
University of Tokyo researchers and colleagues at the RIKEN Research Institute have compiled a first-of-its-kind genetic database for autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases. It’s hoped that the resource will offer up new insights into how immune disorders develop, and potentially aid in drug discovery. Scientists also hope that the atlas of immune-related genome data may eventually be applied to investigations of infectious diseases, such as COVID-19.
“To understand diseases, a deep comprehension of the function of genetic variants is essential,” said University of Tokyo project research associate Mineto Ota, MD, PhD, a clinical rheumatologist and expert in functional genomics. “With this data set, we can connect the data about changes to DNA sequence associated with a disease to genes and cell types that are important for disease pathogenesis.” Ota is lea ....
