Protein-coding mutation in <i>Adcy3</i> increases adiposity and alters emotional behaviors sex-dependently in rats
2024-06-16
Abstract excerpt
1 <h4>Objective</h4> Adenylate cyclase 3 (Adcy3) has been linked to both obesity and major depressive disorder (MDD). Our lab identified a protein-coding variant in the 2 nd transmembrane (TM) helix of Adcy3 in rats, and similar obesity variants have been identified in humans. The current study investigates the role of a TM variant in adiposity and behavior. <h4>Methods</h4> We used CRISPR-SpCas9 to mutate th...
