Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

Polygenic risk for schizophrenia and season of birth within the UK Biobank cohort [PDF]
Background: There is strong evidence that people born in winter and in spring have a small increased risk of schizophrenia. As this ‘season of birth’ effect underpins some of the most influential hypotheses concerning potentially modifiable risk ...

Population genetics meets cancer genomics [PDF]
There is a broad consensus that genetic alterations of normal body cells are the basis of cancer progression. Throughout the lifetime of an individual, her or his cells have to divide often, which is associated with occasional genetic changes. Some of the changes lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation and, at later stages of cancer progression, to ...

In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.

A toolkit to get insights into evolutionary process in the past, presence and future
I reviewed a book Population Genomics that fills in the noticeable lack of a general introductory textbook to population genomics, one of the most exciting and rapidly developing branches of life sciences nowadays. Highly recommended to everybody willing

An evaluation of genotyping by sequencing (GBS) to map the Breviaristatum-e (ari-e) locus in cultivated barley [PDF]
: We explored the use of genotyping by sequencing (GBS) on a recombinant inbred line population (GPMx) derived from a cross between the two-rowed barley cultivar ‘Golden Promise’ (ari-e.GP/Vrs1) and the six-rowed cultivar ‘Morex’ (Ari-e/vrs1) to map ...

Enabling Population and Quantitative Genomics
Dissection of quantitative traits to the nucleotide level requires phenotypic and genotypic analysis of traits on a genome scale. Here we discuss the set of community-wide genetic and molecular resources, including panels of specific types of inbred lines and high density resequencing and SNP detection, that will facilitate such studies.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Genetical genomics dissection of cotton fiber quality [PDF]
Cotton fiber is a commodity of key economic importance in both developed and developing countries. The two cultivated species, Gossypium hirsutum and G. barbadense , are tetraploid (2n=1x= 52 . 2.3 Gb).

Genomics clarifies taxonomic boundaries in a difficult species complex. [PDF]
Efforts to taxonomically delineate species are often confounded with conflicting information and subjective interpretation. Advances in genomic methods have resulted in a new approach to taxonomic identification that stands to greatly reduce much of this
