Mutational spectrum and genotype-phenotype relationships in a cohort of Romanian hereditary angioedema patients caused by C1 inhibitor deficiency

Romanian Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2019
Background: Hereditary angioedema due to C1 inhibitor deficiency (C1-INH-HAE) caused by SERPING1 mutations is a rare monogenic disorder characterized by a high frequency of de novo mutations, allelic heterogeneity and populational differences.

Mutant p53R273H disrupts PDPK1 homodimerization and contributes to PDPK1 activation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
How mutant p53R273H drives AKT signaling is unclear. We show that p53R273H, but not wild‐type, directly binds PDPK1 via a mutation‐dependent conformational change. This interaction disrupts inhibitory PDPK1 homodimerization and enhances AKT phosphorylation.

Novel Heterozygous Sequence Variant in the HOXD13 Gene Underlie Non-syndromic Syndactyly

Journal of Biochemical and Clinical Genetics, 2023
Background: The term "Syndactyly" referred to an inherited deformity of the hand or foot marked by persistence of the webbing between adjacent digits that are more or less completely attached and mostly inherited in an autosomal dominant manner.

Loss of AMBRA1 activates MAPK and angiogenesis signaling pathways in melanoma cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Loss of AMBRA1 in melanoma cells activates multiple oncogenic pathways associated with tumor progression. Transcriptomic and protein network analyses revealed that AMBRA1 depletion enhances MAPK/ERK signaling, angiogenesis, TGF‐β/EMT signaling, and Wnt/axon guidance pathways.

Preliminary study on the function of the POLD1 (CDC2) EXON2 c.56G>A mutation

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2020
Background Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare recessive disease characterized by DNA damage repair deficiency, and DNA polymerase δ (whose catalytic subunit is encoded by POLD1, also known as CDC2) is closely related to DNA damage repair.

A missense mutation in the skeletal muscle chloride channel 1 (CLCN1) as candidate causal mutation for congenital myotonia in a New Forest pony

, 2012
A 7-month-old New Forest foal presented for episodes of recumbency and stiffness with myotonic discharges on electromyography. The observed phenotype resembled congenital myotonia caused by CLCN1 mutations in goats and humans.

A method and server for predicting damaging missense mutations [PDF]

Nature Methods, 2010
To the Editor: Applications of rapidly advancing sequencing technologies exacerbate the need to interpret individual sequence variants. Sequencing of phenotyped clinical subjects will soon become a method of choice in studies of the genetic causes of Mendelian and complex diseases.

Evolution‐guided yeast complementation reveals functional differences in human PSPH variants

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Ancient genomes can help guide which human genetic variants are tested experimentally. This study applies that idea to PSPH, a gene involved in serine biosynthesis, and uses high‐throughput yeast complementation to compare variant function. The findings reveal measurable differences among selected alleles and illustrate the value of evolution‐guided ...

Analyse der transkriptionellen Regulation des humanen endogenen Retrovirus HTDV/HERV-K [PDF]

, 2004
Das humane Genom besteht zu etwa 8% aus retroviralen Sequenzen. Davon sind ca. 1-2% dem humanen endogenen Retrovirus K (HERV-K) zuzuordnen. Das Virus ist mit ca. 30-50 Proviren und ca. 10.000 sLTRs im humanen Genom vertreten.

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...
