Open AccessSystems-wide RNAi analysis of CASP8AP2/FLASH shows transcriptional deregulation of the replication-dependent histone genes and extensive effects on the transcriptome of colorectal cancer cells
Colorectal carcinomas (CRC) carry massive genetic and transcriptional alterations that influence multiple cellular pathways. The study of proteins whose loss-of-function (LOF) alters the growth of CRC cells ca...

Open AccessPvt1-encoded microRNAs in oncogenesis
The functional significance of the Pvt1 locus in the oncogenesis of Burkitt's lymphoma and plasmacytomas has remained a puzzle. In these tumors, Pvt1 is the site of reciprocal translocations to immunoglobulin loc...

Open AccessControl region mutations and the 'common deletion' are frequent in the mitochondrial DNA of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
North central China has some of the highest rates of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in the world with cumulative mortality surpassing 20%. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) accumulates more mutations than nuclear ...

Double light chain producing lymphocytes
The infrequent double light chain producing lymphocyte (DLCPL) is discussed in the context of allelic exclusion. Principally allelic selection rather than allelic exclusion would suggest a role for the DLCPL i...

Genomic instability in MycER-activated Rat1A-MycER cells
The deregulated expression of c-Myc protein is associated with the non-random locus-specific amplification of the dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) gene. This study was performed to determine whether additional chro...

Relative Predispositional Effect of a PADPRP Marker Allele in B-Cell and Some Non B-Cell Malignancies
The gene PADPRP codes for a nuclear enzyme Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase. This enzyme is a DNA binding protein that modulates chromatin structure adjacent to DNA strand breaks (Smulson and Sugimura 1980). The p...

Myc-1 is centromeric to the linkage group Ly-6--Sis--Gdc-1 on mouse chromosome 15
A survey of wild mouse DNA with a c-myc exon 1 probe revealed a Taq I restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) among Mus species. As a result of this Taq I RFLP, a cross between Mus musculus domesticus and...

The context of T-cell receptor gamma chain genes among wild mouse species
We have examined the context of mouse T-cell receptor gamma (Tcr γ) chain variable (V γ) and constant (Cγ) genes among a panel of geographically isolated species of mice. Our Southern hybridization survey with Cγ...

Amplification of immunoglobulin λ constant genes in populations of wild mice
The λ immunoglobulin light chain (Igλ) locus of BALB/c inbred mice consists of two variable region gene segments (Vλ)1–3, and four constant region gene segments (Cλ)1,2,4,5. Each Cλ gene segment is associated wit...
