How does mutation relate to the activation of oncogenes? Does monoclonal cancer theory result from genetic mutation? How does mutation relate to adaptive radiation? Is KRAS mutation genetic? How are U2AF1 mutations acquired? What is the germline BRCA mutation? What happens if oncogenes are mutated?
As a potential solution in EGFR-mutant NSCLC, this testing can mitigate some of the limitations of clinical immunotherapy. In ovarian cancer, ACSL1 can contribute to resistance to ferroptosis through modulation of the N-myristoylation of FSP1 (enhancing its stability)[142]. Notably, in platinum-...
GAPDH converts glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) and NAD+ into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (1,3-BPG) and NADH. It also plays an important role in aerobic glycolysis and has been found to be upregulated in the contexts of several kinds of cancer, but the exact cause of the upregulation remai...
mutant mice presented decreased survival, increased serum levels of IFN-γ, IL-6, IL-10, and TNF, and organ involvement. ThisTLR7gain-of-function variant enhanced TLR7 activation by selectively increasing the sensing of guanosine. The overactive immune response resulted in aberrant survival of B ...
To initiate homologous recombination, the BRCA1/2 (Breast Cancer 1/2) interacts with and recruits RAD51 recombinase that replaces RPA coating ssDNA. RAD51 initiates homology search and facilitates strand invasion into the homologous template. After recognition of the donor molecule, the 3′ ...
This structure permitted the detection of BRCA1 breast cancer gene. A very similar approach, but with three different DNA strands, was applied for BCL2 gene detection, suggesting the reproducibility of this experimental approach to detect different mutations [67]. Figure 7. A prototype of sandwich...
Genetic fate mapping studies commonly use a lineage-specific promoter followed by an inducible form of Cre recombinase fused to the mutant ligand-binding domain of the human estrogen receptor (CreER, CreERT, or CreERT2) [19,20,21], which does not bind to endogenous estradiol, but can be ac...
However, this mutant has only slightly reduced clonogenic survival in comparison to wild-type cells [97,98]. These studies suggest that while mono-ubiquitination is a bona-fide mechanism for regulating Pol η/PCNA interaction and foci formation, this modification does not dramatically reduce its ...
