Molecular basis of normal and pahtological positioning of nuclei in muscle fibres
Final Report Abstract
Both projects described in the application (identification of new CNM genes and in vivo imaging of muscle fibers) were executed with success. I could idenfify novel BINI mutations associated with autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy and I am currently investigating the functional impact of those mutations. I furthermore discovered and characterized the first mutation in canine X-linked CNM and these results will lead to preclinical trials using AAV on dogs in the near future. Owing to the rapid progression of novel sequencing techniques, we decided to adapt the project "Identification of new CNM genes" and to focus on high-throughput sequencing. The IGBMC sequencing platform purchased an lllumina GAIIx sequencer and our team was the first in the institute to propose and launch a new project using the novel technology. After an extensive establishment of the technical protocol and the bioinformatical analysis, we accomplished a successful test run and the preliminary data on whole-exome sequencing are highly promising. The in vivo imaging project faced major and unexpected technical obstacles, in particular movement artefacts, imaging speed and imaging depth. The tight cooperation wilh the IGBMC imaging platform helped to seize these challenges and to propose satisfactory approaches and solutions.
