Chapter 1: Epistasis for beginners
Basic principles of DT40
DT40: A genetically tractable eukaryotic cell line
DT40
• Genetically tractable
• Good model for genome stability in mammals
• Complementation by human genes
• Good database
versus humans
Genetically tractable DT40
Phenotypic analysis
Knocking out or mutating genes and looking at cellular function
Mapping genetic pathways
Combining mutations- epistasis
Structure/function analysis/ cell biology
Complementation, proteomics
Genetic regulation
Reporter assays
All these require manipulation of the genome
Integrate DNA
Target DNA
*
Alter DNA
*
Remove DNA
Genetic Recombination is our tool
Random Integration- non homologous end joining
Targeted Integration- Homologous/Homeologous recombination
Site specific recombination
Non Homologous End Joining-Random integration
Ku, DNA-PKcs, LigIV,
Advantages
Simple
Relatively high frequency
Disadvantages
Potential uncharacterised genetic effect
Multiple integration
Shut down of expression
Homologous recombination- site specific integration, gene disruption, mutation
DNA End Resection
Mre11/RAD50/NBS1, CtIP, Exo1
Strand Invasion
RAD51
Holliday Junctions
Branch Migration
RAD51BCD
Resolution
Slx1/4, GEN1
Homologous recombination
Homologous Recombination
Advantage
s
Acurate/error free
Introduction of multiple changes
Disdvantages
Easy to introduce errors
Aberrant recombination
Neighbouring sequences
Epistasis difficult for HR genes
Site specific recombination- cre/lox

Understanding recombination is the key
to manipulating the DT40 genome
Words of warning
3 copies of chromosome 2
Genomes are ‘plastic’- Don’t culture for too long
