CRISPR-Cas9-mediated saturated mutagenesis screen predicts clinical drug resistance with improved accuracy

Publications associées (29)

Crizotinib acts as ABL1 inhibitor combining ATP-binding with allosteric inhibition and is active against native BCR-ABL1 and its resistance and compound mutants BCR-ABL1(T315I) and BCR-ABL1(T315I-E255K)

Resistance remains the major clinical challenge for the therapy of Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) leukemia. With the exception of ponatinib, all approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are unable to inhibit the common "gatekeeper" mutation T315I ...

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 ...

Trametinib Induces the Stabilization of a Dual GNAQ p.Gly48Leu-and FGFR4 p.Cys172Gly-Mutated Uveal Melanoma. The Role of Molecular Modelling in Personalized Oncology

Olivier Michielin, Krisztian Homicsko, Alexandre Wicky

We report a case of an uveal melanoma patient with GNAQ p.Gly48Leu who responded to MEK inhibition. At the time of the molecular analysis, the pathogenicity of the mutation was unknown. A tridimensional structural analysis showed that G alpha(q) can adopt ...

Notch Signaling - a Booster of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia During Initiation and Disease Progression

Delphine Maude Tardivon

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a B cell malignancy and represents the most common leukemia in adults within the Western world. This disease mainly affects the elderly, with a median age of diagnosis over 70. The disease course is highly variable amo ...

Rapid Screen for Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Resistance Mutations and Substrate Specificity

Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Oliver Hantschel, Sina Maren Reckel

We present a rapid and high-throughput yeast and flow cytometry based method for predicting kinase inhibitor resistance mutations and determining kinase peptide substrate specificity. Despite the widespread success of targeted kinase inhibitors as cancer t ...

Directed evolution of the optoelectronic properties of synthetic nanomaterials

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

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. ...

Predicting the Occurrence of Variants in RAG1 and RAG2

Jacques Fellay, Flavia Aurelia Shoko Hodel, Dylan Lawless

While widespread genome sequencing ushers in a new era of preventive medicine, the tools for predictive genomics are still lacking. Time and resource limitations mean that human diseases remain uncharacterized because of an inability to predict clinically ...

Analysis of Inherited Optic Neuropathies

Background Inherited optic neuropathies (IONs) cover a spectrum of clinically and genetically heterogenic conditions. Genetic evaluation of patients with IONs may enable their better clinico-diagnostic assessment and management of the disease. The aim of t ...

Method for Identification of Threonine Isoforms in Peptides by Ultraviolet Photofragmentation of Cold Ions

Oleg Boyarkine, Vladimir Kopysov, Aleksandr Pereverzev, Elizaveta Solovyeva

Identification of isomeric amino acid residues in peptides and proteins is challenging but often highly desired in proteomics. One of the practically important cases that require isomeric assignments is that associated with single-nucleotide polymorphism s ...

ZNF445 is a primary regulator of genomic imprinting

Didier Trono, Priscilla Turelli, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Sandra Eloise Kjeldsen, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert, Michaël Imbeault, Andrea Coluccio

Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic process regulated by germline-derived DNA methylation, causing parental origin-specific monoallelic gene expression. Zinc finger protein 57 (ZFP57) is critical for maintenance of this epigenetic memory during post-fertil ...
