Targeting the Menin–KMT2A interaction in leukemia: Lessons learned and future directions

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Chromosomal rearrangements involving the Mixed Lineage Leukemia gene (MLL1, KMT2A) are defining a genetically distinct subset in about 10% of human acute leukemias. Translocations involving the KMT2A‐locus at chromosome 11q23 are resulting in the formation of a chimeric oncogene, where the N‐terminal part of KMT2A is fused to a variety of ...

Features of Methylation and Gene Expression in the Promoter-Associated CpG Islands Using Human Methylome Data

Comparative and Functional Genomics, 2012
CpG islands are typically located in the 5′ end of genes and considered as gene markers because they play important roles in gene regulation via epigenetic change.

Enhancer‐dependent gene regulation in space, time, and malignancies

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Control of cell‐type‐specific gene activation requires the coordinated activity of distal regulatory elements, including enhancers, whose inputs must be temporally integrated. Dysregulation of this regulatory capacity, such as aberrant usage of enhancers, can result in malignant transformation of cells.

Identifying Epigenetic Signature of Breast Cancer with Machine Learning [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
The research reported in this paper identifies the epigenetic biomarker (methylation beta pattern) of breast cancer. Many cancers are triggered by abnormal gene expression levels caused by aberrant methylation of CpG sites in the DNA. In order to develop early diagnostics of cancer-causing methylations and to develop a treatment, it is necessary to ...

CpG Islands and Double-Minute Chromosomes

Genomics, 1998
Double-minute chromosomes (DMs) amplify oncogenes in human tumors. The organization of genomic DNA in four independently isolated DMs amplifying the DHFR (dihydrofolate reductase) gene has been compared by mapping locations of CpG islands. When cleaved with methylation-sensitive rare-cutting restriction endonucleases, three hypomethylated GC-rich DNA ...

Comprehensive genetic and epigenetic characterization of Lynch‐like syndrome patients

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Lynch‐like syndrome is associated with development of colorectal cancer (CRC) with microsatellite instability and loss of expression of certain mismatch repair (MMR) genes, similar to Lynch syndrome, but unlike Lynch syndrome, the genetic cause of Lynch‐like syndrome (LLS) remains unknown.

Molecular subtyping and precision therapy for esophageal cancer

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
The molecular typing of esophageal cancer based on genome, transcriptome, proteome, and multi‐omics revealed various molecular features and provided potential targets for the precision therapy. Recent trials have shown that immunotherapy or molecular targeted therapy plus chemoradiotherapy can improve overall survival and progression‐free survival in ...

Identification of DNA-Methylated CpG Islands Associated With Gene Silencing in the Adult Body Tissues of the Ogye Chicken Using RNA-Seq and Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark that plays an essential role in regulating gene expression. CpG islands are DNA methylations regions in promoters known to regulate gene expression through transcriptional silencing of the corresponding gene.
