Evaluating Random Mutant Selection at Class-Level in Projects with Non-Adequate Test Suites [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 20th International Conference on Evaluation and Assessment in Software Engineering (EASE '16). ACM, New York, NY, USA, 2016, 2016
Mutation testing is a standard technique to evaluate the quality of a test suite. Due to its computationally intensive nature, many approaches have been proposed to make this technique feasible in real case scenarios. Among these approaches, uniform random mutant selection has been demonstrated to be simple and promising.

Invariants of genus 2 mutants [PDF]

open access: yesJ.Knot Theor.Ramifications 18:1423-1438,2009, 2007
Pairs of genus 2 mutant knots can have different Homfly polynomials, for example some 3-string satellites of Conway mutant pairs. We give examples which have different Kauffman 3-variable polynomials, answering a question raised by Dunfield et al in their study of genus 2 mutants.

The gut microbiome switches mutant p53 from tumour-suppressive to oncogenic

open access: yesNature, 2020
Somatic mutations in p53, which inactivate the tumour-suppressor function of p53 and often confer oncogenic gain-of-function properties, are very common in cancer 1 , 2 .

Genetic compensation triggered by mutant mRNA degradation

open access: yesNature, 2019
Genetic robustness, or the ability of an organism to maintain fitness in the presence of harmful mutations, can be achieved via protein feedback loops. Previous work has suggested that organisms may also respond to mutations by transcriptional adaptation,

Mutant knots with symmetry [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2009
AbstractMutant knots, in the sense of Conway, are known to share the same Homfly polynomial. Their 2-string satellites also share the same Homfly polynomial, but in general theirm-string satellites can have different Homfly polynomials form> 2.

Phenotypic mixing and hiding may contribute to memory in viral quasispecies [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Microbiology 3:11 (2003), 2003
Background. In a number of recent experiments with food-and-mouth disease virus, a deleterious mutant, was found to avoid extinction and remain in the population for long periods of time. This observation was called quasispecies memory. The origin of quasispecies memory is not fully understood. Results.

A combinatorial strategy for treating KRAS-mutant lung cancer

open access: yesNature, 2016
Therapeutic targeting of KRAS-mutant lung adenocarcinoma represents a major goal of clinical oncology. KRAS itself has proved difficult to inhibit, and the effectiveness of agents that target key KRAS effectors has been thwarted by activation of ...

Mutant Kras copy number defines metabolic reprogramming and therapeutic susceptibilities

open access: yesNature, 2016
The RAS/MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) signalling pathway is frequently deregulated in non-small-cell lung cancer, often through KRAS activating mutations.

A dominant-negative FGF1 mutant (the R50E mutant) suppresses tumorigenesis and angiogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Fibroblast growth factor-1 (FGF1) and FGF2 play a critical role in angiogenesis, a formation of new blood vessels from existing blood vessels. Integrins are critically involved in FGF signaling through crosstalk. We previously reported that FGF1 directly
