Germline APOBEC3B deletion increases somatic hypermutation in Asian breast cancer that is associated with Her2 subtype, PIK3CA mutations and immune activation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, 2021
A 30‐kb deletion that eliminates the coding region of APOBEC3B (A3B) is >5 times more common in women of Asian descent compared to European descent.

Histone H2A and H2B are monoubiquitinated at AID-targeted loci. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Somatic hypermutation introduces base substitutions into the rearranged and expressed immunoglobulin (Ig) variable regions to promote immunity. This pathway requires and is initiated by the Activation Induced Deaminase (AID) protein, which deaminates ...

Tandem Substitutions in Somatic Hypermutation

open access: yesBlood, 2021
Upon antigen recognition, activation-induced cytosine deaminase initiates affinity maturation of the B-cell receptor by somatic hypermutation (SHM) through error-prone DNA repair pathways.

Rapid Hypermutation B Cell Trajectory Recruits Previously Primed B Cells Upon Third SARS-Cov-2 mRNA Vaccination

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The COVID-19 pandemic shows that vaccination strategies building on an ancestral viral strain need to be optimized for the control of potentially emerging viral variants.

Somatic immunoglobulin hypermutation [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Immunology, 2002
Immunoglobulin hypermutation provides the structural correlate for the affinity maturation of the antibody response. Characteristic modalities of this mechanism include a preponderance of point-mutations with prevalence of transitions over transversions, and the mutational hotspot RGYW sequence.

Modulation of Pleurodeles waltl DNA polymerase mu expression by extreme conditions encountered during spaceflight. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
DNA polymerase µ is involved in DNA repair, V(D)J recombination and likely somatic hypermutation of immunoglobulin genes. Our previous studies demonstrated that spaceflight conditions affect immunoglobulin gene expression and somatic hypermutation ...
