mSphere of Influence: Considering Complex Mutational Processes That Shape Microbial Virulence
Matt Anderson works in the field of genetics and infectious disease, with a focus on the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans. In this mSphere of Influence article, he reflects on how two papers, “Gene Flow Contributes to Diversification of the Major ...

ADD3 Deletion in Glioblastoma Predicts Disease Status and Survival
Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosome 10 frequently occurs in gliomas. Whereas genetic loci with allelic deletion often implicate tumor suppressor genes, a putative tumor suppressor Adducin3 (ADD3) mapped to chromosome 10q25.2 was found to be ...

The design of effective antimicrobial therapies for serious eukaryotic pathogens requires a clear understanding of their highly variable genomes. To facilitate analysis of copy number variations, single nucleotide polymorphisms and loss of heterozygosity

Does age influence loss of heterozygosity? [PDF]
The striking correlation between advanced age and an increased incidence of cancer has led investigators to examine the influence of aging on genome maintenance. Because loss of heterozygosity (LOH) can lead to the inactivation of tumor suppressor genes, and thus carcinogenesis, understanding the affect of aging on this type of mutation event is ...

Loss of the frequently mutated chromatin remodeler ARID1A, a subunit of the SWI/SNF cBAF complex, results in less open chromatin, alternative splicing, and the failure to stop cells from progressing through the cell cycle after DNA damage in bladder (cancer) cells. Created in BioRender. Epigenetic regulators, such as the SWI/SNF complex, with important

Intracranial aneurysmal rupture is the common cause of spontaneous subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). This haemorrhage is typically diffuse and located in extracerebral subarachnoid space in which main cerebral arterial branches are situated.

Selection for heterozygosity gives hope to a wild population of inbred wolves. [PDF]
Recent analyses have questioned the usefulness of heterozygosity estimates as measures of the inbreeding coefficient (f), a finding that may have dramatic consequences for the management of endangered populations.

Evidence for loss of heterozygosity in human psoriatic lesions [PDF]
Psoriasis, a disease of human skin, is characterized by abnormal differentiation and hyperproliferation of keratinocytes; it has a genetic background. Using 11 highly polymorphic microsatellite markers on eight chromosome arms, we performed an allelotype analysis in 14 psoriatic plaques, in order to reveal any chromosome deletions involved in the ...

This study develops a semi‐supervised classifier integrating multi‐genomic data (1404 training/5893 validation samples) to improve homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) detection in breast cancer. Our method demonstrates prognostic value and predicts chemotherapy/PARP inhibitor sensitivity in HRD+ tumours.

Pediatric follicular lymphoma is a rare disease that differs genetically and clinically from its adult counterpart. With the exception of pediatric follicular lymphoma with IRF4-translocation, the genetic events associated with these lymphomas have not ...
