Project name: Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome associated MYO1E mutations have differential effects on myosin 1e localization, dynamics, and activity

Description: Patients deficient in myosin 1e and mice in which Myo1e is knocked out develop Focal Segmental Glomerlosclerosis. To study the impact of myo1e deficiency on cultured podocytes, we derived conditionally immortalized glomerular epithelial cells from crosses between the Myo1e-KO mice and a H-2Kb-tsA58 mice (Immortomouse) to obtain Myo1e- heterozygous and Myo1e-KO podocyte-derived cells. The purpose of this study was to analyze the transcriptome differences between wild-type Murine Podocyte Cells (MPC) originally described in PMID 9344605 and mantained in our lab for several passages, Myo1e Heterozygous cells, and Myo1e KO cells. RNAseq and differential gene expression analysis was performed.Overall design: Three biological replicates from each genotype (MPC, Myosin 1e Heterozygous, and Myosin 1e Knockout) were analyzed.

Data type: Transcriptome or Gene expression
