Models and partition of variance for quantitative trait loci with epistasis and linkage disequilibrium

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2006
Background A genetic model about quantitative trait loci (QTL) provides a basis to interpret the genetic basis of quantitative traits in a study population, such as additive, dominance and epistatic effects of QTL and the partition of genetic variance ...

Mitochondrial Carrier SLC25A13 Drives Ferroptosis Resistance and Immune Evasion via a STAT3–IFI6 Circuit in Breast Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SLC25A13 is identified as an immunometabolic driver of triple‐negative breast cancer that sustains ferroptosis resistance and immune evasion through a STAT3–IFI6 circuit. Pharmacologic degradation of SLC25A13 restores ferroptosis sensitivity and enhances anti‐PD‐1 efficacy, highlighting a strategy to convert immune‐cold tumors into immunotherapy ...

EPISTASIS BETWEEN NEW MUTATIONS AND GENETIC BACKGROUND AND A TEST OF GENETIC CANALIZATION [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 2001
The importance for fitness of epistatic interactions among mutations is poorly known, yet epistasis can exert important effects on the dynamics of evolving populations. We showed previously that epistatic interactions are common between pairs of random insertion mutations in the bacterium Escherichia coli. In this paper, we examine interactions between

Positive epistasis drives the acquisition of multidrug resistance. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2009
The evolution of multiple antibiotic resistance is an increasing global problem. Resistance mutations are known to impair fitness, and the evolution of resistance to multiple drugs depends both on their costs individually and on how they interact ...

ZER1 Restrains Pressure Overload‐Induced Cardiac Remodeling by Targeting DVL2 for Gly/N‐Degron‐Dependent Degradation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Pressure overload suppresses cardiomyocyte ZER1, weakening CRL2Zer1‐mediated DVL2 degradation and allowing DVL2 accumulation. Elevated DVL2 activates CaMKII‐HDAC4‐MEF2C signaling, drives fetal gene reactivation, and promotes pathological remodeling.

Contribution of genetic effects to genetic variance components with epistasis and linkage disequilibrium [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2009
Cockerham genetic models are commonly used in quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis with a special feature of partitioning genotypic variances into various genetic variance components, while the F(infinity) genetic models are widely used in genetic association studies. Over years, there have been some confusion about the relationship between these two

A method for detecting epistasis in genome-wide studies using case-control multi-locus association analysis

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Background The difficulty in elucidating the genetic basis of complex diseases roots in the many factors that can affect the development of a disease.

MAM‐Localized MANF Counteracts Microinflammatory Stress to Attenuate Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Cataractogenesis in High Myopia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic microinflammation in high myopia suppresses MANF in lens epithelial cells. MANF normally resides within MAMs and promotes ubiquitin‐mediated degradation of the ER Ca2+ pump SERCA2. MANF loss causes pathological SERCA2 accumulation, MAM hyperassembly, and disrupted ER‐to‐mitochondria Ca2+ transfer, leading to mitochondrial failure, oxidative ...

Speciation Genetics: Epistasis, Conflict and the Origin of Species [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2007
Evolutionary biologists have long recognized that the sterility and inviability of species hybrids must involve incompatible epistatic interactions between two (or more) genes. The first pair of such hybrid incompatibility genes has now been identified.

Inferring Epistasis from Genetic Time-series Data

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2022
AbstractEpistasis refers to fitness or functional effects of mutations that depend on the sequence background in which these mutations arise. Epistasis is prevalent in nature, including populations of viruses, bacteria, and cancers, and can contribute to the evolution of drug resistance and immune escape.
