  3. The genome encodes the buttons and circuits of our immune system - we just need to know how to read the instructions Fumbling for his recline button, Ted unwittingly instigates a disaster

  4. Systematic screening for recessive Mendelian syndromes in the immune system caused by single nucleotide variants G0: ENU treated C57BL/6 male C57BL/6 female Random base substitutions in spermatogonial stem cells C57BL/6 female * G1 progeny: carry ~3000 single nucleotide substitutions spread randomly across paternal chromosomes: ~35 functional variants/G1 * G2progeny: Single nucleotide substitutions segregate G3 progeny: 12.5% of SNVs brought to homozygosity in each mouse

  5. Genotype: mutation mapped to chromosomal interval and identified by DNA sequencing “Endophenotypes”: eg altered blood cells in flow cytometry, altered antibody response to immunization Clinical Phenotype: eg susceptibility to infection with M tuberculosis or Poxvirus, allergic dermatitis, disseminated lymphoid cancer Preclinical model for treatment or prevention

  6. SSC FSC CD3 CD4 Tube 040: lowish CD4s & CD8s & higher %CD44hi in CD8s CD3 CD44 CD3 CD44 T Cells

  7. CD3 B220 IgD IgM Tube 046: slightly higher IgM CD3 NK1_1 CD44 NK1_1 B Cells

  8. CD44 IgE IgG2a IgE CD44 IgE IgG2a IgE Monocytes

  9. Plate 14062 Blood FACs bled 064/10 (05.03.10) Comment: Mehmet : Sample 37,38,40 and 65 have reduced CD4 and CD8 T cells Sample 37 and 40 elevated IgE Chris Goodnow: Stains and gates look great. I worry that we’re not picking up IgE+ cells in most samples: gating or staining intensity problem? Tube 040: lowish CD4s & CD8s & higher %CD44hi in CD8s, higher IgE Tube 046: slightly higher IgM Tube 037: higher IgE I think the technician forgot to scan following mouse: Sample 73 is ENU14Yaa:047:B6:G2 # 2

  11. Example #1: the value of integrating clinical correlations of DNA variants with understanding of mechanism from the mouse: Regulating NFkB activity and cell growth in normal, autoimmune and malignant B cells

  12. Discovering new regulators of B cell growth by forward genetics: phenotypic screening of a library of mice segregating thousands of randomly-induced single nucleotide substitutions • Unmodulated  detected from B cell screen • Each dot represent one mouse. • Dashed lines  two SD • ~ 400 G3 animals Amount of complement receptor on B cell surface Amount of antigen receptor on B cell surface Changes in antigen receptor density often indicate abnormalilities in the BCR signalling pathways

  13. Unmodulated variant breeds true as a simple Mendelian recessive trait Control Amount of complement receptor on B cell surface Variant Amount of antigen receptor on B cell surface Mean values for individual offspring from unmodulated affected mouse (un/un) crossed with heterozygous (un/+) carrier

  14. Homozygous un/un mice make little antibody upon immunization, because their B cells proliferate poorly to BCR-stimulation Relative amount of antibody in serum Th1 / IgG2a Th2 / IgG1

  17. Building up mechanistic information from knockouts, point mutants, knock-downs, etc:essential roles of individual genes; groups of genes clustered by pathway; …towards a systems-level understanding of how human alleles of different genes might interact CARD11 PKC (eg. MYC)
