Sorting genomes with rearrangements and segmental duplications through trajectory graphs

We study the problem of sorting genomes under an evolutionary model that includes genomic rearrangements and segmental duplications. We propose an iterative algorithm to improve any initial evolutionary trajectory between two genomes in terms of parsimony. ...

Substrates for Improved Live-Cell Fluorescence Labeling of SNAP-tag

Kai Johnsson, Luc Reymond, Grazvydas Lukinavicius

The SNAP-tag labeling technology provides a simple, robust, and versatile approach to the imaging of fusion proteins for a wide range of experimental applications. Owing to the specific and covalent nature of the labeling reaction, SNAP-tag is well suited ...

Impact of body biasing on the retention time of gain-cell memories

Andreas Peter Burg, Adam Shmuel Teman, Pascal Andreas Meinerzhagen

Gain-cell-based embedded dynamic random-access memory (DRAMs) are a potential high-density alternative to mainstream static random-access memory (SRAM). However, the limited data retention time of these dynamic bitcells results in the need for power-consum ...

Label-free, direct DNA detection by means of a standard CMOS electronic chip

Nico de Rooij, Peter Van der Wal, Stefano Lai

An integrated chip for DNA hybridization detection was realized in a standard CMOS process: it hosts 80 biosensors subdivided in 2 channels, as well as D/A and A/D converters for electrical stimulation and readout. A microfluidic system, bonded on the surf ...

Impact of copy number variations (CNVs) on long-range gene regulation at the HoxD locus

Denis Duboule

Copy number variations are genomic structural variants that are frequently associated with human diseases. Among these copy number variations, duplications of DNA segments are often assumed to lead to dosage effects by increasing the copy number of either ...

Breast cancer suppressor candidate-1 (BCSC-1) is a melanoma tumor suppressor that down regulates MITF

Mauro Delorenzi

Understanding the molecular aberrations involved in the development and progression of metastatic melanoma (MM) is essential for a better diagnosis and targeted therapy. We identified breast cancer suppressor candidate-1 (BCSC-1) as a novel tumor suppresso ...

Bimodal control of Hoxd gene transcription in the spinal cord defines two regulatory subclusters

Denis Duboule

The importance of Hox genes in the specification of neuronal fates in the spinal cord has long been recognized. However, the transcriptional controls underlying their collinear expression domains remain largely unknown. Here we show in mice that the corres ...

The Wnt inhibitory factor 1 (WIF1) is targeted in glioblastoma and has a tumor suppressing function potentially by induction of senescence

Mauro Delorenzi

Gene expression-based prediction of genomic copy number aberrations in the chromosomal region 12q13 to 12q15 that is flanked by MDM2 and CDK4 identified Wnt inhibitory factor 1 (WIF1) as a candidate tumor suppressor gene in glioblastoma. WIF1 encodes a sec ...

Genomic instability in induced stem cells

Didier Trono, Marc Samuel Friedli

The ability to reprogram adult cells into stem cells has raised hopes for novel therapies for many human diseases. Typical stem cell reprogramming protocols involve expression of a small number of genes in differentiated somatic cells with the c-Myc and Kl ...

Fast and accurate phylogenetic reconstruction from high-resolution whole-genome data and a novel robustness estimator

Bernard Moret, Yu Lin, Vaibhav Rajan

The rapid accumulation of whole-genome data has renewed interest in the study of genomic rearrangements. Comparative genomics, evolutionary biology, and cancer research all require models and algorithms to elucidate the mechanisms, history, and consequence ...
