Somatic Mitochondrial DNA Point Mutations Used as Biomarkers to Demonstrate Genomic Heterogeneity in Primary Prostate Cancer

Paul Refinetti, Per Olaf Ekstrom

Primary prostate tumor heterogeneity is poorly understood, leaving research efforts with challenges regarding the initiation and advancement of the disease. The growth of tumor cells is accompanied by mutations in nuclear and in mitochondrial genomes. Thus ...

The effect of single amino acid mutations on the rebinding dynamics of nitrogen monoxide (NO) to myoglobin is investigated using reactive molecular dynamics simulations. In particular, mutations of residues surrounding the heme-active site (Leu29, His64, V ...

Directed evolution of the optoelectronic properties of synthetic nanomaterials

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian, Benjamin Paul Johanès Gabriel Lambert, Alice Judith Gillen, Shang-Jung Wu

Directed evolution is a powerful approach to tailor protein properties toward new or enhanced functions. Herein, we use directed evolution to engineer the optoelectronic properties of DNA-wrapped single-walled carbon nanotube sensors through DNA mutation. ...

Since most dominant human mutations are single nucleotide substitutions(1,2), we explored gene editing strategies to disrupt dominant mutations efficiently and selectively without affecting wild-type alleles. However, single nucleotide discrimination can b ...

Enhanced Rate of Acquisition of Point Mutations in Mouse Intestinal Adenomas Compared to Normal Tissue

Paloma Ordonez Moran

The most prevalent single-nucleotide substitution (SNS) found in cancers is a C-to-T substitution in the CpG motif. It has been proposed that many of these SNSs arise during organismal aging, prior to transformation of a normal cell into a precancerous/can ...

Mapping mitochondrial heteroplasmy in a Leydig tumor by laser capture microdissection and cycling temperature capillary electrophoresis

Stephan Morgenthaler, Paul Refinetti, Per Olaf Ekstrom

Background: The growth of tumor cells is accompanied by mutations in nuclear and mitochondrial genomes creating marked genetic heterogeneity. Tumors also contain non-tumor cells of various origins. An observed somatic mitochondrial mutation would have occu ...

Identification and Characterization of Tyrosine Kinase Nonreceptor 2 Mutations in Leukemia through Integration of Kinase Inhibitor Screening and Genomic Analysis

Oliver Hantschel, Sina Maren Reckel

The amount of genomic information about leukemia cells currently far exceeds our overall understanding of the precise genetic events that ultimately drive disease development and progression. Effective implementation of personalized medicine will require t ...

Phenome-wide association is a novel reverse genetic strategy to analyze genome-to-phenome relations in human clinical cohorts. Here we test this approach using a large murine population segregating for similar to 5 million sequence variants, and we compare ...

Potential blindness in children of patients with hereditary bone disease

Mono- and bi-allelic mutations in the low-density lipoprotein receptor related protein 5 (LRP5) may cause osteopetrosis, autosomal dominant and recessive exudative vitreoretinopathy, juvenile osteoporosis, or persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV) ...

Melanization contributes to arthropod-specific innate immunity through deposition of melanin at wound sites or around parasites, with concomitant release of microbicidal reactive oxygen species. Melanization requires sequential activation of proteolytic en ...
