Evidence of widespread degradation of gene control regions in hominid genomes [PDF]

, 2005
Although sequences containing regulatory elements located close to protein-coding genes are often only weakly conserved during evolution, comparisons of rodent genomes have implied that these sequences are subject to some selective constraints ...

Class IIa HDACs forced degradation allows resensitization of oxaliplatin‐resistant FBXW7‐mutated colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
HDAC4 is degraded by the E3 ligase FBXW7. In colorectal cancer, FBXW7 mutations prevent HDAC4 degradation, leading to oxaliplatin resistance. Forced degradation of HDAC4 using a PROTAC compound restores drug sensitivity by resetting the super‐enhancer landscape, reprogramming the epigenetic state of FBXW7‐mutated cells to resemble oxaliplatin ...

Rapid single nucleotide polymorphism mapping in C. elegans

BMC Genomics, 2005
Background In C. elegans, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can function as silent genetic markers, with applications ranging from classical two- and three-factor mapping to measuring recombination across whole chromosomes. Results Here, we describe

Effect of chemotherapy on passenger mutations in metastatic colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Changes in passenger mutation load and predicted immunotherapy response after chemotherapy treatment. Tumor cells rich with passenger mutations have increased sensitivity to chemotherapy. Correlation of passenger mutations with neoantigen load suggests highly mutated clones promote a more effective response to immunotherapy, and therefore, first‐line ...

Correlation between MDM2 T309G single nucleotide polymorphism and esophageal cancer susceptibility: An updated meta‐analysis

Thoracic Cancer, 2020
Background The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between MDM2 T309G single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and esophageal cancer susceptibility through pooling the open published data.

Cryptic MHC Polymorphism Revealed but Not Explained by Selection on the Class IIB Peptide-Binding Region [PDF]

, 2012
The immune genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are characterized by extraordinarily high levels of nucleotide and haplotype diversity. This variation is maintained by pathogen-mediated balancing selection that is operating on the peptide ...

Molecular characterisation of human penile carcinoma and generation of paired epithelial primary cell lines

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Generation of two normal and tumour (cancerous) paired human cell lines using an established tissue culture technique and their characterisation is described. Cell lines were characterised at cellular, protein, chromosome and gene expression levels and for HPV status.

MT1A single Nucleotide Polymorphism and Blood Mercury Levels

Journal of Current Oncology and Medical Sciences, 2022
Introduction: The risk factors for the metallothionein (MT) polymorphism in concentrations of heavy metals, especially mercury, in the blood are subject to several confounding factors, including differences in the ethnicity of the population analyzed ...

The Drosophila genome nexus: a population genomic resource of 623 Drosophila melanogaster genomes, including 197 from a single ancestral range population. [PDF]

, 2015
Hundreds of wild-derived Drosophila melanogaster genomes have been published, but rigorous comparisons across data sets are precluded by differences in alignment methodology.
