Problems solved by technology

Multiple substrates of the E3 ubiquitin ligase UBE3A have been reported, but still cannot be used to elucidate the mechanism of autism, so there may be other unknown substrate proteins that are dysfunctional in the brain of autistic patients (Sell et al., 2015)

[0147] 18. Virus Preparation and Brain-Targeted Injection

[0148] All indicated genes are driven by the Synapsin I (SynI) promoter and have a Flag tag fused to the N-terminus. The envelope protein serotype of adeno-associated virus (AAV) is AAV2 / 9, which is packaged by Shanghai Heyuan Biotechnology Company (Obio). AAV-SynI-Flag-UBE3A and AAV-SynI-Flag-UBE3A-T508E virus titers were approximately 1.5×10 13 Copy number / mL, AAV-SynI-Flag-EGFP virus titer is about 9.5×10 12 Copy number / mL.

[0149] 3-week-old mice were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital (50 mg / kg), and then fixed on a locator (Rivold, China). AAV virus diluted in 1 μL PBS was injected with a quantitative syringe pump (Stoelting) at a speed of 0.2 μL / min on both sides of the PFC area in the inner side of the mouse brain. Positions of targeted injections (relative to the bregma): AP, +2 mm; ML, ±0.5 mm; DV, -1.3 mm. The amount of virus injected at each injection point was: AAV-SynI-Flag-...

Embodiment 1

[0166] Example 1 The copy number amplification of chromosome 15q11.2-14 was found in the samples of autism patients

[0167] Three clinically diagnosed patients with autism phenotype were collected in the early stage, and the amplification of chromosome 15q11.2-14 ( figure 1 a-b). A series of genes are included in this expanded region, and their association with autism is not clear, except for the UBE3A gene which is generally confirmed to play a key role in the 15q expansion syndrome ( figure 1 b-c). The peripheral blood lymphocytes of these patients were established into immortalized cell lines by EBV virus infection method, so as to facilitate the follow-up functional research. Among them, compared with the control cells from healthy volunteers, the expression levels of UBE3A protein in these three autistic cells were significantly increased ( figure 1 d).

Embodiment 2

[0168] Example 2 Screening out the new substrate ALDH1A protein family of UBE3A

[0169] Since there is no known substrate of UBE3A that can explain the association between the pathogenesis of ASD and the overactivation of UBE3A from a mechanistic point of view (Glessner et al., 2009; Sell et al., 2015), the human UBE3A protein was first used as a bait, Unknown substrate proteins were screened by yeast two-hybrid method. Among them, many positive clones were found to carry the cDNA encoding the rate-limiting enzyme ALDH1A2 for RA synthesis ( figure 2 a). Retinoic acid RA, as an active metabolite of vitamin A (retinol), is required for the development and growth of higher animals including humans (Shearer et al., 2012). The synthesis of RA is completed by two steps, including retinol dehydrogenase (RDH10) that catalyzes retinol to retinal, and retinal dehydrogenase (ALDH1A1,2) that catalyzes retinal to retinoic acid. , 3 families). Co-immunoprecipitation experiments verifi...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, in particular, the invention relates to the use of ALDH1A and its agonists, catalytic products and inhibitors. Background technique [0002] Autism spectrum disorder, referred to as "autism", also known as "autism", its core symptoms are social communication and communication barriers, repetitive stereotyped behavior, is a serious neurodevelopmental disorder. Among them, in autism cases, chromosome 15q11-q13 copy number amplification (CNV) accounts for 1-3%; this CNV can cause excessive activation of UBE3A E3 ubiquitin ligase, but its specific pathogenic mechanism is not clear . [0003] Autism spectrum disorder is a generalized neurodevelopmental disorder with diverse etiologies, and its core symptoms are mainly reflected in deficits in social interaction and communication skills, and limited repetitive interests, behaviors or activities (Huguet et al. , 2013; Zoghbi et al., 2012). So far, the ge...
