Analysis of SARS-CoV-2 genomic epidemiology reveals disease transmission coupled to variant emergence and allelic variation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The spread of SARS-CoV-2 created a pandemic crisis with > 150,000 cumulative cases in > 65 countries within a few months. The reproductive number (R) is a metric to estimate the transmission of a pathogen during an outbreak.

Deciphering Signatures of Mutational Processes Operative in Human Cancer

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
The genome of a cancer cell carries somatic mutations that are the cumulative consequences of the DNA damage and repair processes operative during the cellular lineage between the fertilized egg and the cancer cell. Remarkably, these mutational processes

Mutational signatures of ionizing radiation in second malignancies

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Ionizing radiation may induce irreparable DNA damage leading to cancer. Here, the authors identify a specific signature of mutations arising in patients exposed to ionizing radiation and suggest that radiation-induced tumorigenesis is associated with ...

Analyses of publicly available Hungatella hathewayi genomes revealed genetic distances indicating they belong to more than one species

open access: yesVirulence, 2021
Hungatella hathewayi has been observed to be a member of the gut microbiome. Unfortunately, little is known about this organism in spite of being associated with human fatalities; it is important to understand virulence mechanisms and epidemiological ...
