Genomic instability — the engine of tumorigenesis?
Human cancers harbour numerous mutations and it has been proposed that these result from some form of inherent genomic instability. Some cancers have proven genomic instability or features that are indicative of this. Inherited cancer syndromes exist that are caused by deficient DNA repair or chromosomal integrity. By contrast, theoretical analysis and

Energetics of whole genome doubling and genomic instability. [PDF]
Whole genome doubling (WGD) is among the most prevalent genomic alterations in cancer, present in approximately one third of patients at the time of diagnosis. WGD provides cancer cells with a selective advantage, by protecting against mutations in haploinsufficient genes or buffering deleterious mutations.

Genomic instability as a driver and suppressor of anti-tumor immunity
Genomic instability is a driver and accelerator of tumorigenesis and influences disease outcomes across cancer types. Although genomic instability has been associated with immune evasion and worsened disease prognosis, emerging evidence shows that ...

Candida albicans is a pathobiont that inflicts serious bloodstream fungal infections in individuals with compromised immunity and gut dysbiosis. Genomic diversity in the form of copy number alteration, ploidy variation, and loss of heterozygosity as an ...

Candida albicans survives as a commensal fungus in the gastrointestinal tract, and that its excessive growth causes infections in immunosuppressed individuals is widely accepted. However, any mutualistic relationship that may exist between C.

FBXW7 is one of the most frequently mutated tumor suppressors, deficiency of which has been associated with resistance to some anticancer therapies. Through bioinformatics and genome‐wide CRISPR screens, we here reveal that FBXW7 deficiency leads to ...

Genome Instability and γH2AX [PDF]
γH2AX has emerged in the last 20 years as a central player in the DDR (DNA damage response), with specificity for DSBs (double-strand breaks). Upon the generation of DSBs, γ-phosphorylation extends along megabase-long domains in chromatin, both sides of the damage.

Bacterial Genome Instability [PDF]
SUMMARY Bacterial genomes are remarkably stable from one generation to the next but are plastic on an evolutionary time scale, substantially shaped by horizontal gene transfer, genome rearrangement, and the activities of mobile DNA elements. This implies the existence of a delicate balance between the maintenance of genome stability and the ...
