Preferential attachment in the protein network evolution

open access: yes, 2003
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein-protein interaction map, as well as many natural and man-made networks, shares the scale-free topology. The preferential attachment model was suggested as a generic network evolution model that yields this universal ...

Detection of circulating tumor DNA in colorectal cancer patients using a methylation‐specific droplet digital PCR multiplex

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We developed a cost‐effective methylation‐specific droplet digital PCR multiplex assay containing tissue‐conserved and tumor‐specific methylation markers. The assay can detect circulating tumor DNA with high accuracy in patients with localized and metastatic colorectal cancer.

Universal Pacemaker of Genome Evolution

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2012
Molecular clock (MC) is a central concept of molecular evolution according to which each gene evolves at a characteristic, near constant rate. Numerous evolutionary studies have demonstrated the validity of MC but also have shown that MC is substantially overdispersed, i.e. lineage-specific deviations of the evolutionary rate of the given gene from the

Characterization of the Mycobiome of the Seagrass, Zostera marina, Reveals Putative Associations With Marine Chytrids

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Seagrasses are globally distributed marine flowering plants that are foundation species in coastal ecosystems. Seagrass beds play essential roles as habitats and hatcheries, in nutrient cycling, and in protecting the coastline from erosion. Although many

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...

Tumour mutational burden: primary versus metastatic tissue creates systematic bias

open access: yesImmuno-Oncology and Technology, 2019
Tumour mutational burden (TMB) has emerged as a reproducible biomarker to predict immunotherapy response across multiple cancer types. However, a key aspect of TMB measurement that is often overlooked is the source of tissue sample used, which creates a ...

Monitoring of circulating tumor DNA allows early detection of disease relapse in patients with operable breast cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Monitoring circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in patients with operable breast cancer can reveal disease relapse earlier than radiology in a subset of patients. The failure to detect ctDNA in some patients with recurrent disease suggests that ctDNA could serve as a supplement to other monitoring approaches.

Comparative genomics and genome evolution in yeasts [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2006
Yeasts provide a powerful model system for comparative genomics research. The availability of multiple complete genome sequences from different fungal groups—currently 18 hemiascomycetes, 8 euascomycetes and 4 basidiomycetes—enables us to gain a broad perspective on genome evolution.

Evolution signatures in genome network properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Genomes maybe organized as networks where protein-protein association plays the role of network links. The resulting networks are far from being random and their topological properties are a consequence of the underlying mechanisms for genome evolution ...
