Werner syndrome is a progeroid disease characterised by genetic instability due to mutations to the WRN helicase/exonuclease. Here the authors define a novel Ku binding motif (KBM) and show that two such motifs facilitate the involvement of WRN in DNA ...

Summary The butterfly‐shaped keel flower is a highly successful floral form in angiosperms. These flowers steer the mechanical interaction with bees and thus are hypothesized to accelerate pollinator‐driven diversification. The exceptionally labile evolution of keel flowers in Papilionoideae (Fabaceae) provides a suitable system to test this hypothesis.

A novel ZRS variant causes preaxial polydactyly type I by increased sonic hedgehog expression in the developing limb bud. [PDF]
PurposePreaxial polydactyly (PPD) is a common congenital hand malformation classified into four subtypes (PPD I-IV). Variants in the zone of polarizing activity regulatory sequence (ZRS) within intron 5 of the LMBR1 gene are linked to most PPD types ...

Werner's syndrome and malignancy
Ten per cent of all patients with Werner's syndrome develop some form of malignant disease, half of them sarcomas. A case of Werner's syndrome is reported in which the patient had a malignant fibroxanthoma of the thigh followed by a papillary cystadenocarcinoma of the ovaries. A brother with clinical signs of Werner's syndrome died of acute leukaemia.
