Overlap in somatic mutation calls.

open access: yes, 2013
Verified somatic mutation calls were compared across three callers in 5 different tumor purity mixtures. Values are number of calls in 100%, 80%, 60%, 40% and 20% tumor content mixture, from top to bottom.

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Germline and somatic mutations in patients with multiple primary melanomas: a next generation sequencing study

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2019
Introduction Multiple primary melanomas (MPM) occur up to 8% of patients with cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM). They are often sporadic harbouring several somatic mutations, but also familial cases harbouring a CDKN2A germline mutation have been ...

The Somatic Mutation Hit on Top of Genetic APC mutations Cause Skin Tumor

open access: yesTranslational Oncology, 2020
Inactivation of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene is the initiating event in familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) patients. Up to 90% of FAP patients show intestinal tumors and other extracolonic malignancies including hepatoblastomas, desmoid ...

Gene expression analyses on skin lesions from patients with familial adenomatous polyposis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Familial adenomatous polyposis coli (FAP) is an autosomal dominant colorectal cancer predisposition syndrome caused by germline mutations in the APC gene.

Soft motions encoded by the fold and mediated by conserved hinge sites drive V‐ATPase allosteric machinery and autoinhibition

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Vacuolar H+‐ATPase (V‐ATPase) is a multisubunit rotary proton pump that acidifies intracellular compartments. Using elastic network models, we identified conserved hinge residues that govern its large‐scale functional motions. We show that intrinsically encoded ‘soft modes’ drive critical functional transitions, including rotary catalysis and ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Cancer as a Mitochondrial Metabolic Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2015
Cancer is widely considered a genetic disease involving nuclear mutations in oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. This view persists despite the numerous inconsistencies associated with the somatic mutation theory.

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

Somatic mutation rates scale with time not growth rate in long-lived tropical trees

open access: yeseLife
The rates of appearance of new mutations play a central role in evolution. However, mutational processes in natural environments and their relationship with growth rates are largely unknown, particular in tropical ecosystems with high biodiversity. Here,
