The role of fibroblast growth factors in cell and cancer metabolism

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling regulates crucial signaling cascades that promote cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism. Therefore, FGFs and their receptors are often dysregulated in human diseases, including cancer, to sustain proliferation and rewire metabolism.

Retrospective evaluation of whole exome and genome mutation calls in 746 cancer samples

Nature Communications, 2020
With the generation of large pan-cancer whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing projects, a question remains about how comparable these datasets are. Here, using The Cancer Genome Atlas samples analysed as part of the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes

Whole Genome Sequencing

, 2023
Virilizer (Vir), first isolated from Drosophila melanogaster, plays a role in sex determination. In humans, its homologue and METTL3 are involved in N6-adenosine methylation (m6A) writing. As m6A of mRNA is an important process in most eukaryotes, it is very important to understand its role and the status of factors accompanying this modification ...

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

FEBS 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 ...

Whole-genome sequencing analysis of semi-supercentenarians

eLife, 2021
Extreme longevity is the paradigm of healthy aging as individuals who reached the extreme decades of human life avoided or largely postponed all major age-related diseases.

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

Virological Aspects of COVID-19 in Patients with Hematological Malignancies: Duration of Viral Shedding and Genetic Analysis

Viruses
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been associated with a significant fatality rate and persistent evolution in immunocompromised patients. In this prospective study, we aimed to determine the duration of excretion of severe acute respiratory ...

PennCNV in whole-genome sequencing data

BMC Bioinformatics, 2017
Background The use of high-throughput sequencing data has improved the results of genomic analysis due to the resolution of mapping algorithms. Although several tools for copy-number variation calling in whole genome sequencing have been published, the ...

The IQ‐compete assay for measuring mitochondrial protein import efficiencies in living yeast cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The efficiency of mitochondrial protein import depends on the properties of the newly synthesized precursor proteins. The Import and de‐Quenching Competition (IQ‐compete) assay is a novel method to monitor the import efficiency of different proteins by fluorescence in living yeast cells.

Future of whole genome sequencing [PDF]

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 2014
The era of genomic medicine, anticipated since the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003, is now upon us. Before long, genomic information will be an integral part of the medical record, and paediatricians will be able to interrogate these data for a range of purposes: to make a diagnosis in a sick child, to diagnose or exclude a rare genetic ...
