Claspin-Dependent and -Independent Chk1 Activation by a Panel of Biological Stresses
Replication stress has been suggested to be an ultimate trigger of carcinogenesis. Oncogenic signal, such as overexpression of CyclinE, has been shown to induce replication stress. Here, we show that various biological stresses, including heat, oxidative

Genome-wide copy number variation analysis of hepatitis B infection in a Japanese population
Hepatitis B: Gene copy numbers associated with risk of infection The risk of contracting the hepatitis B virus may be linked to the number of copies of certain genes in an individual’s genome.

The medaka Oryzias latipes is a small egg-laying freshwater teleost, and has become an excellent model system for ecotoxicology, developmental genetics, genomics and evolutionary biology studies. A high-quality draft genome sequence (700 Mb) of the medaka inbred strain, Hd-rR, has now been completed. In this review, we present an overview of the medaka

The Cancer Genome Atlas Pan-Cancer analysis project
Current clinical practice is organized according to tissue or organ of origin of tumors. Now, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Research Network has started to identify genomic and other molecular commonalities among a dozen different types of cancer ...

MitoHiFi: a python pipeline for mitochondrial genome assembly from PacBio high fidelity reads
Background PacBio high fidelity (HiFi) sequencing reads are both long (15–20 kb) and highly accurate (> Q20). Because of these properties, they have revolutionised genome assembly leading to more accurate and contiguous genomes.

Deciphering Signatures of Mutational Processes Operative in Human Cancer
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
