Molecular dissection of the mechanism by which EWS/FLI expression compromises actin cytoskeletal integrity and cell adhesion in Ewing sarcoma. [PDF]
Ewing sarcoma is the second-most-common bone cancer in children. Driven by an oncogenic chromosomal translocation that results in the expression of an aberrant transcription factor, EWS/FLI, the disease is typically aggressive and micrometastatic upon ...

Gene Expression Dominance in Allopolyploids: Hypotheses and Models [PDF]
The classical example of nonadditive contributions of the two parents to allopolyploids is nucleolar dominance, which entails silencing of one parental set of ribosomal RNA genes. This has been observed for many other loci. The prevailing explanation for this genome-wide expression disparity is that the two merged genomes differ in their transposable ...

Oakleaf: an S locus-linked mutation of Primula vulgaris that affects leaf and flower development [PDF]
•In Primula vulgaris outcrossing is promoted through reciprocal herkogamy with insect-mediated cross-pollination between pin and thrum form flowers. Development of heteromorphic flowers is coordinated by genes at the S locus.

Evaluation of polygenic determinants of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by a candidate genes resequencing strategy [PDF]
NAFLD is a polygenic condition but the individual and cumulative contribution of identified genes remains to be established. To get additional insight into the genetic architecture of NAFLD, GWAS-identified GCKR, PPP1R3B, NCAN, LYPLAL1 and TM6SF2 genes ...

A dominant gene for developmental dyslexia on chromosome 3 [PDF]
Developmental dyslexia is a neurofunctional disorder characterised by an unexpected difficulty in learning to read and write despite adequate intelligence, motivation, and education. Previous studies have suggested mostly quantitative susceptibility loci for dyslexia on chromosomes 1, 2, 6, and 15, but no genes have been identified yet.
