1 Jackie Mitchell Department of Basic and Clinical Neuroscience - IoPPN Why do we need model genetic systems? What does it take to be a good model? Common in vivo model species Genetic manipulations (Lecture 2) To catalogue/identify gene function 30,000 protein coding genes <10,000 with known function Recent identification of functional non-coding RNAs To identify gene/protein role in disease Multiple genes in multiple neurological disorders Often little knowledge of functional relevance Model disease causative and healthy genes Develop models for therapeutic assessment 1
2 Study genetic perturbations under a controlled environment Gene/protein knockouts Gene/protein overexpression Normal Disease mutant Gene/protein point mutations/knock-ins Multiple genetic variations Natural variation (inbred/outbred strains) Trait selection Response to environmental manipulation Its not as simple as it seems! One gene can have several functions Multiple genes can perform the same function What is a model? A small measure A simplified representation used to explain/understand the workings of a real system Two basic types In vitro A controlled environment outside the living organism Test tube Cell culture In vivo A whole living organism Also ex vivo intact tissue from a living organism 2
3 genetic models drug models environmental manipulation models behavioural models Simple genetic system vs. close relatives Breeding capacity and known history Ease of genetic manipulation Quantifiable phenotypes Experimental tractability Ease of environmental manipulation Construct Validity How well the model reflects theoretical assumptions (the human condition) Predictive Validity How well a manipulation in the model being studied predicts performance (again in the human condition) Face Validity Degree of similarity between responses observed in the model and the disorder it simulates in humans 3
4 Reproducibility Relevance Decreases with increasing model simplicity Interpretation (interpretability) Species specific responses Humans are the worst model system!!!! 4
5 Unicellular Organisms Bacteria (Escherischia coli) Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) Non-vertebrates Worms (caenorhabditis elegans) Flies (drosophila melanogaster) Non-mammalian vertebrates Fish (danio rerio, takifugu rubripes) Frogs (Xenopus laevis) Non-primate mammals Rodents (mus muscularis, rattus norvegicus) Non-human primates Monkeys (macaca mulatta) mammals bacteria archarea eucaryota reptiles and amphibians animalia plants funghi protist birds fish invertebrates arachnids vertebrates urchins corals and anemones insects bivalves jellyfish worms and leeches crustaceans Monotremata Marsupialia Afrotheria Xenarthra snails Laurasiatheria and slugs Euarchontoglires squids, cuttlefish and octopi Humans Primates Rodents Euarchonta Glires 5
6 Unicellular Organisms Bacteria (Escherischia coli) Prokaryotes (no nucleus) Rapid growth Easily manipulated bacteria archarea eucaryota Used in neuroscience research predominantly to grow proteins or plasmids expressing genes of interest Unicellular Organisms Baker s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) First eukaryote to have its genome fully sequenced (1996) Genetic simplicity ~6200 genes (humans have ~20,800) Breeding capacity h (doubling) Genetic manipulations eucaryota Direct cellular transfection Experimental tractability Petri dish cultures animalia plants funghi protist Unicellular Organisms Baker s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) Quantifiable phenotypes Cell death/dysfunction Protein mislocalisation/aggregate formation Environmental manipulations Chemical or physical (i.e. heat) stimuli can readily be applied to petri dish Other Factors No central nervous system Research use Basic cellular mechanisms of the cell cycle (DNA replication, recombination, cell division, metabolism, cellular proteins). Yeast two hybrid assay (protein-protein/dna interactions) 6

How well will a model answer it? How easily can you extrapolate back to the human? All the model species have benefits and drawbacks, they must be used together, and in conjunction with in vitro studies, to help piece together the answers 11
