Host Genomics of the HIV-1 Reservoir Size and Its Decay Rate During Suppressive Antiretroviral Treatment

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Alessandro Borghesi

Background: The primary hurdle for the eradication of HIV-1 is the establishment of a latent viral reservoir early after primary infection. Here, we investigated the potential influence of human genetic variation on the HIV-1 reservoir size and its decay r ...

A fully joint Bayesian quantitative trait locus mapping of human protein abundance in plasma

Anthony Christopher Davison, Jörg Hager, Hélène Ruffieux, Radu Popescu

Molecular quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses are increasingly popular to explore the genetic architecture of complex traits, but existing studies do not leverage shared regulatory patterns and suffer from a large multiplicity burden, which hampers the ...

The DEAD-box RNA helicase CshA is required for fatty acid homeostasis inStaphylococcus aureus

Bianca Marie Petrignani

Staphylococcus aureusis an opportunistic pathogen that can grow in a wide array of conditions: on abiotic surfaces, on the skin, in the nose, in planktonic or biofilm forms and can cause many type of infections. Consequently,S.aureusmust be able to adapt r ...

TBX3 acts as tissue-specific component of the Wnt/beta-catenin transcriptional complex

Michel Aguet, Andreas Eduard Moor

BCL9 and PYGO are beta-catenin cofactors that enhance the transcription of Wnt target genes. They have been proposed as therapeutic targets to diminish Wnt signaling output in intestinal malignancies. Here we find that, in colorectal cancer cells and in de ...

Biotransformation Capacity of Zebrafish (Danio rerio) Early Life Stages: Functionality of the Mercapturic Acid Pathway

Kristin Schirmer, Alena Tierbach

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) early life stages offer a versatile model system to study the efficacy and safety of drugs or other chemicals with regard to human and environmental health. This is because, aside from the well-characterized genome of zebrafish and ...

VIDIT: Virtual Image Dataset for Illumination Transfer

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Ruofan Zhou

Deep image relighting is gaining more interest lately, as it allows photo enhancement through illumination-specific retouching without human effort. Aside from aesthetic enhancement and photo montage, image relighting is valuable for domain adaptation, whe ...

Chromatin three-dimensional interactions mediate genetic effects on gene expression

David Hacker, Giovanna Ambrosini, Philipp Bucher, Sanjeev Kumar

Studying the genetic basis of gene expression and chromatin organization is key to characterizing the effect of genetic variability on the function and structure of the human genome. Here we unravel how genetic variation perturbs gene regulation using a da ...

Genome-wide variation in nucleotides and retrotransposons in alpine populations of Arabis alpina (Brassicaceae)

Stéphane Joost, Aude Rogivue

Advances in high‐throughput sequencing have promoted the collection of reference genomes and genome‐wide diversity. However, the assessment of genomic variation among populations has hitherto mainly been surveyed through single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SN ...

Histone Modifications in Development and Malignancy

Elisa Oricchio

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) development is driven by the accumulations of multiple genetic, epigenetic, and chromosomal alterations. These lesions can lead to modifications of the chromatin architecture. To identify novel oncogenic interactions driven by mo ...
