Ascaris lumbricoides and Ascaris suum are parasitic nematodes living in the small intestine of humans and pigs, and can cause the disease ascariasis. For long, there has been controversy as to whether the two ascaridoid taxa represent the same species due to their significant resemblances in morphology. However, the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome data have been lacking for A. lumbricoides in spite...
EDA, the gene mutated in anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, encodes ectodysplasin, a TNF superfamily member that activates NF-kB mediated transcription. To identify EDA target genes, we have earlier used expression profiling to infer genes differentially expressed at various developmental time points in Tabby (Eda-deficient) compared to wild-type mouse skin. To increase the resolution to find genes...
Mutations in ectodysplasin-A (EDA) cause loss of hair, sweat glands, and teeth in man and mouse. Isoform EDA-A1 protein shows partial rescue of the affected Tabby mouse phenotypes, suggesting that other isoforms may be required for full function. We describe genomic structure for five EDA isoforms, EDA-A1′, A5, A5′, A6, and A6′, in addition to the previously known EDA-A1, A2, A3, and A4. The novel...
Lesions in the anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (EDA) gene cause the recessive human genetic disorder X-linked anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, which is characterized by the poor development of ectoderm-derived structures. Ectodysplasin-A, the protein encoded by the EDA gene, is a member of the tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily that forms a collagen triple helix, suggesting functions in signal...
