Intended Use

The GluR4 Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can monitor GluR4 protein expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of GluR4 in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie. siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on GluR4.

Abstract

Smoking and major depression frequently co-occur, at least in part due to shared genetic risk. However, the nature of the shared genetic basis is poorly understood. To detect genetic risk variants for comorbid nicotine dependence (ND) and major depression (MD), we conducted genome-wide association study (GWAS) in two samples of African-American participants (Yale-Penn 1 and 2) using linear mixed model, followed by meta-analysis. 3724 nicotine-exposed subjects were analyzed: 2596 from Yale-Penn-1 and 1128 from Yale-Penn-2. Continuous measures (Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND) scores and DSM-IV MD criteria) rather than disorder status were used to maximize the power of the GWAS. Genotypes were ascertained using the Illumina HumanOmni1-Quad array (Yale-Penn-1 sample) or the Illumina HumanCore Exome array (Yale-Penn-2 sample), followed by imputation based on the 1000 Genomes reference panel. An intronic variant at the GRIA4 locus, rs68081839, was significantly associated with ND-MD comorbidity (beta = 0.69 [95% CI, 0.43-0.89], P = 1.53 x 10(-8)). GRIA4 encodes an AMPA-sensitive glutamate receptor that mediates fast excitatory synaptic transmission and neuroplasticity. Conditional analyses revealed that the association was explained jointly by both traits. Enrichment analysis showed that the top risk genes and genes co-expressed with GRIA4 are enriched in cell adhesion, calcium ion binding, and synapses. They also have enriched expression in the brain and they have been implicated in the risk for other neuropsychiatric disorders. Further research is needed to determine the replicability of these findings and to identify the biological mechanisms through which genetic risk for each condition is conveyed.

Abstract

We have constructed a long-range physical map for 12 markers, including genes for GRIA4, IL1BC, and ACAT, across 9 Mb of chromosome 11q22-q23 in the region of the major locus for ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T). The markers fall into proximal and distal groups with respect to the centromere. We have linked the proximal and distal groups by hybridization to a 2.7-Mb NotI fragment and a 4.6-Mb MluI fragment. The following locus order was obtained: centromere-CJ52.75-J12.1C2-Y11B11R-IL1BC-hbcDNA-GRIA4-CJ52.3-Y11B29L-ACAT-CJ52.193-J12.8-Y11B06R-telomere. We show that hbcDNA/GRIA4 and CJ52.3 are very closely linked to each end, respectively, of the 2.7-Mb NotI fragment, thereby fixing the position of the complete contig. Our results indicate that the gene for A-T is flanked by the markers GRIA4 and J12.8, which are no more than 3 Mb apart, on a 4.6-Mb MluI fragment. The physical map allows rapid positioning of markers, and this will facilitate the construction of a YAC contig across the region. (C) 1994 Academic Press, Inc.
