When is an SNP not an SNP?

open access: yesBioTechniques
Genomic duplications are important sources of structural change and gene innovation. In humans, the most recent and highly identical sequences (>90% homology, >1 kb long) are known as segmental duplications (SDs). Single-nucleotide variants or single-nucleotide polymorphisms within SDs have not been systematically assessed due to limitations around ...

SumHer better estimates the SNP heritability of complex traits from summary statistics

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2018
We present SumHer, software for estimating confounding bias, SNP heritability, enrichments of heritability and genetic correlations using summary statistics from genome-wide association studies. The key difference between SumHer and the existing software

Proteomic Insight into Susac Syndrome Utilizing Tear Fluid—Case Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Susac Syndrome (SuS) is a rare autoimmune neurovascular disorder characterized by sudden visual loss, hearing disturbances, and encephalopathy. Pathology affects the small vessels of the brain, retina, and inner ear.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the Treatment of Human Spinal Cord Injury: The Effect on Individual Values of pNF-H, GFAP, S100 Proteins and Selected Growth Factors, Cytokines and Chemokines

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2022
At present, there is no effective way to treat the consequences of spinal cord injury (SCI). SCI leads to the death of neural and glial cells and widespread neuroinflammation with persisting for several weeks after the injury.

Migrating the SNP array-based homologous recombination deficiency measures to next generation sequencing data of breast cancer

open access: yesnpj Breast Cancer, 2018
The first genomic scar-based homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) measures were produced using SNP arrays. As array-based technology has been largely replaced by next generation sequencing approaches, it has become important to develop algorithms ...

An intracellular transporter mitigates the CO2‐induced decline in iron content in Arabidopsis shoots

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study identifies a gene encoding a transmembrane protein, MIC, which contributes to the reduction of shoot Fe content observed in plants under elevated CO2. MIC is a putative Fe transporter localized to the Golgi and endosomal compartments. Its post‐translational regulation in roots may represent a potential target for improving plant nutrition ...

Specific Urinary Metabolites in Malignant Melanoma

open access: yesMedicina, 2019
Background and objectives: Melanin, which has a confirmed role in melanoma cell behaviour, is formed in the process of melanogenesis and is synthesized from tryptophan, L-tyrosine and their metabolites.

MMP-2 geno-phenotype is prognostic for colorectal cancer survival, whereas MMP-9 is not. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The prognostic significance of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and tumour protein levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 was evaluated in 215 colorectal cancer patients.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only
