Abstract

The anatomic gene expression atlas (AGEA) of the adult mouse brain of the Allen Institute for Brain Science is a transcriptome-based atlas of the adult C57Bl/6 J mouse brain, based on the extensive in situ hybridization dataset of the Institute. This spatial mapping of the gene expression levels of mice under baseline conditions could assist in the formation of new, reasonable transcriptome-derived hypotheses on brain structure and underlying biochemistry, which could also have functional implications. The aim of this work is to use the data of the AGEA (in combination with Tabula Muris, a compendium of single cell transcriptome data collected from mice, enabling direct and controlled comparison of gene expression among cell types) to provide further insights into the physiology of TAG-1/Contactin-2 and its interactions, by presenting the expression of the corresponding gene across the adult mouse brain under baseline conditions and to investigate any spatial genomic correlations between TAG-1/Contactin-2 and its interacting proteins and markers of mature and immature oligodendrocytes, based on the pre-existing experimental or bibliographical evidence. The across-brain correlation analysis on the gene expression intensities showed a positive spatial correlation of TAG-1/Contactin-2 with the gene expression of Plp1, Myrf, Mbp, Mog, Cldn11, Bace1, Kcna1, Kcna2, App and Nfasc and a negative spatial correlation with the gene expression of Cspg4, Pdgfra, L1cam, Ncam1, Ncam2 and Ptprz1. Spatially correlated genes are mainly expressed by mature oligodendrocytes (like Cntn2), while spatially anticorrelated genes are mainly expressed by oligodendrocyte precursor cells. According to the data presented in this work, we propose that even though Contactin-2 expression during development correlates with high plasticity events, such as neuritogenesis, in adulthood it correlates with pathways characterized by low plasticity.
