We show that the majority of the 18 analyzed recurrent cancer‐associated ERBB4 mutations are transforming. The most potent mutations are activating, co‐operate with other ERBB receptors, and are sensitive to pan‐ERBB inhibitors. Activating ERBB4 mutations also promote therapy resistance in EGFR‐mutant lung cancer.

Divergent modulation of nociception by glutamatergic and GABAergic neuronal subpopulations in the periaqueductal gray [PDF]
The ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG) constitutes a major descending pain modulatory system and is a crucial site for opioid-induced analgesia. A number of previous studies have demonstrated that glutamate and GABA play critical opposing roles in

Improved reference genome of the arboviral vector Aedes albopictus [PDF]
Background: The Asian tiger mosquito Aedes albopictus is globally expanding and has become the main vector for human arboviruses in Europe. With limited antiviral drugs and vaccines available, vector control is the primary approach to prevent mosquito ...

Screening Chickens for Endogenous Virus ev 21 Viral Element by the Polymerase Chain Reaction
The molecular architecture of the sex-linked late-feathering region of the chicken genome is still poorly defined. Current evidence points to a strong association between the presence of the endogenous viral element ev21 and the late-feathering phenotype.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Integrase-associated niche differentiation of endogenous large DNA viruses in crustaceans
Crustacean genomes harbor sequences originating from nimaviruses, a family of large double-stranded DNA viruses infecting crustaceans. In this study, we recovered metagenome-assembled genomes of 27 endogenous nimaviruses from crustacean genome data ...

ViFi: accurate detection of viral integration and mRNA fusion reveals indiscriminate and unregulated transcription in proximal genomic regions in cervical cancer. [PDF]
The integration of viral sequences into the host genome is an important driver of tumorigenesis in many viral mediated cancers, notably cervical cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma.

ATP13A2 is involved in intracellular polyamine transport in lung epithelial cells
Spermidine transport in lung epithelial cells involves the polyamine transporter ATP13A2. Cell proliferation is associated with the upregulation of ATP13A2. Polyamines are present in all living cells and are implicated in various crucial cellular processes such as proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy.

Force for ancient and recent life: viral and stem-loop RNA consortia promote life. [PDF]
Lytic viruses were thought to kill the most numerous host (i.e., kill the winner). But persisting viruses/defectives can also protect against viruses, especially in a ubiquitous virosphere. In 1991, Yarmolinsky et al.
