    Detection of four isomers of the human cytomegalovirus genome using nanopore long-read sequencing

    Human cytomegalovirus has a linear DNA genome with a total length of approximately 235 kb. This large genome is divided into two domains, "Long" and "Short". There are four isomers of the cytomegalovirus genom...

    Identification and clinical significance of somatic oncogenic mutations in epithelial ovarian cancer

    Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a heterogeneous disease with diverse clinicopathological features and behaviors, and its heterogeneity may be concerned with the accumulation of multiple somatic oncogenic mu...

    Clinical implication of oncogenic somatic mutations in early-stage cervical cancer with radical hysterectomy

    It is well known that tumour initiation and progression are primarily an accumulation of genetic mutations. The mutation status of a tumour may predict prognosis and enable better selection of targeted therapi...

    Tumor mutation burden and immunological, genomic, and clinicopathological factors as biomarkers for checkpoint inhibitor treatment of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer

    Cancer treatment using immune checkpoint inhibitors is widely used, although biomarkers predictive of response are not well established. However, both the expressions of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) ...

    Human protein factory for converting the transcriptome into an in vitro–expressed proteome

    A collection of 33,275 human Gateway entry clones and complementary in vitro protein expression methodologies are described that allow proteome-scale production of human proteins. This 'human protein factory' was...

    Complete sequencing and characterization of 21,243 full-length human cDNAs

    As a base for human transcriptome and functional genomics, we created the “full-length long Japan” (FLJ) collection of sequenced human cDNAs. We determined the entire sequence of 21,243 selected clones and fou...

    Construction of a 7-Aminocephalosporanic Acid (7ACA) Biosynthetic Operon and Direct Production of 7ACA in Acremonium Chrysogenum

    We have used cDNA encoding D-amino acid oxidase, and genomic DNA encoding cephalosporin acylase from Fusarium solani and Pseudomonas diminuta, respectively, to construct a novel hybrid 7-aminocephalosporanic acid...
