The induction of somatic hypermutation (SHM) in various cell lines by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) has been used in protein-directed selection, especially in antibody affinity maturation.

This integrated high‐resolution copy number and histomolecular analysis of diffuse hemispheric glioma, H3 G34‐mutant expands the spectrum of associated genetic changes and underscores the presence of universal TP53 abnormalities at copy number, sequence, and protein expression level, with frequent yet largely unrecognized TP53 copy‐neutral loss of ...

Genesis of ancestral haplotypes: RNA modifications and reverse transcription–mediated polymorphisms
Understanding the genesis of the block haplotype structure of the genome is a major challenge. With the completion of the sequencing of the Human Genome and the initiation of the HapMap project the concept that the chromosomes of the mammalian genome are

Reflections on the state of play in somatic hypermutation
Somatic hypermutation (SHM) of rearranged variable genes proceeds in two phases. Phase I which is well understood is triggered by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) and targets mutations at C:G base pairs equally on both DNA strands.

Somatic mutation patterns in non-lymphoid cancers resemble the strand biased somatic hypermutation spectra of antibody genes [PDF]
It has been long accepted that many types of B cell cancer (lymphomas, myelomas, plasmacytomas, etc.) are derived from the antigen-stimulated B cell Germinal Center (GC) reaction [1], [2], [3] and [4], i.e.

It has been suggested that codon insertion and/or deletion may represent a mechanism that, along with hypermutation, contributes to the affinity maturation of antibodies.

Transcription-dependent somatic hypermutation occurs at similar levels on functional and nonfunctional rearranged IgH alleles. [PDF]
Allelic exclusion of IgH chain expression is stringently established before or during early B cell maturation. It likely relies both on cellular mechanisms, selecting those cells in which a single receptor allows the best possible Ag response, and on ...

Targeting of somatic hypermutation by immunoglobulin enhancer and enhancer-like sequences.
Somatic hypermutation (SH) generates point mutations within rearranged immunoglobulin (Ig) genes of activated B cells, providing genetic diversity for the affinity maturation of antibodies.

PATH-29. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF TEMOZOLOMIDE-INDUCED SOMATIC HYPERMUTATION IN INITIALLY LOW-GRADE IDH-MUTANT DIFFUSE GLIOMAS [PDF]
INTRODUCTION Diffuse low-grade gliomas (DLGG) treated with temozolomide (TMZ) can develop somatic hypermutation. We present data on the incidence and prognostic importance of somatic hypermutation in IDH-mutant DLGGs.
