Candidate Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Markers for Arsenic Responsiveness of Protein Targets

Bioinformatics and Biology Insights, 2010
Arsenic is a toxic metalloid that causes skin cancer and binds to cysteine residues—a property that could be used to infer arsenic responsiveness of a target protein.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Array Lesions, TET2, DNMT3A, ASXL1 and CBL Mutations Are Present in Systemic Mastocytosis

PLoS ONE, 2012
We hypothesized that analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism arrays (SNP-A) and new molecular defects may provide new insight in the pathogenesis of systemic mastocytosis (SM).

XBP1s Mediates Cross‐resistance to Combination Treatment of CDK4/6 Inhibitors plus Endocrine Therapy in Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Elevated spliced form of X‐box–binding protein 1 (XBP1) correlates with unfavorable responses to endocrine therapy plus CDK4/6 inhibitors in HR+/HER2− advanced breast cancer. XBP1s facilitates cell proliferation and G1/S transition by transcriptionally activating SND1, thereby activating the E2F1 pathway.

A Single Nucleotide Polymorphism in 3′-Untranslated Region Contributes to the Regulation of Toll-like Receptor 4 Translation*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
Background: Genetic variation of SNP rs11536889 in 3′-UTR of TLR4 is implicated in certain diseases, including periodontitis, gastric atrophy, and prostate cancer. Results: The G allele of rs11536889 inhibited translation, but not transcription, of TLR4.

No association of CTLA-4 polymorphisms with susceptibility to Behcet disease [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) is a key negative regulator of T lymphocytes and has been shown to be associated with a number of autoimmune diseases. The present study was performed to assess the association between CTLA-

An Allele of Glutamate Formiminotransferase Triggers 5‐Methyl‐Tetrahydrofolate‐to‐MeFox Conversion and Facilitates Folate Biofortification in Maize

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the distinct roles of the glutamate formiminotransferase (GFT) enzyme in plants. The GFT triggers the conversion of 5‐methyl‐tetrahydrofolate to MeFox in plants, a process distinct from its role as a formiminotransferase in mammals.

ICAM G241A polymorphism and soluble ICAM-1 serum levels: Evidence for an active immune process in schizophrenia [PDF]

, 2005
Objectives: We have previously reported reduced serum levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) in schizophrenic patients. A single-nucleotide polymorphism ( SNP) of the ICAM-1 gene was described at position 241.

Life Factors and Melanoma: From the Macroscopic State to the Molecular Mechanism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Melanoma, an aggressive skin cancer, arises from dynamic interactions between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. This review explores how age, gender, obesity, diet, exercise, smoking, alcohol, UV exposure, circadian rhythms, and medications influence melanoma risk and progression.

CONTRASTING EFFECTS OF AN MDM2 FUNCTIONAL POLYMORPHISM ON TUMOR PHENOTYPES [PDF]

, 2017
Cancer predisposition by the cooperation of genetic variants, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), may be of much greater significance to public health than previously appreciated.

A Study on the Cell Layer Patterns of a Citrus Periclinal Chimera Reveals β‐Cryptoxanthin Regulation in Citrus Fruits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers have identified a citrus chimera with distinctive tissue origins and carotenoid profiles. It is discovered that fruit tissues develop from all three cell layers but in different proportions. A key transcription factor, MYB107, regulates β‐cryptoxanthin production by directly activating carotenoid biosynthesis genes, explaining why some ...
