BIRC5 Genomic Copy Number Variation in Early-Onset Breast Cancer
Background: Baculoviral inhibitor of apoptosis repeat-containing 5 (BIRC5) gene is an inhibitor of apoptosis that expresses in human embryonic tissues but it is absent in most healthy adult tissues. The copy number of BIRC5 has been indicated to be highly increased in tumor tissues; however, its association with the age of onset in breast cancer is not well understood. Methods: Forty tumor tiss...
متن کاملPervasive gene content variation and copy number variation in maize and its undomesticated progenitor.
Individuals of the same species are generally thought to have very similar genomes. However, there is growing evidence that structural variation in the form of copy number variation (CNV) and presence-absence variation (PAV) can lead to variation in the genome content of individuals within a species. Array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to compare gene content and copy number ...
متن کاملGenome Architecture and Its Roles in Human Copy Number Variation
Besides single-nucleotide variants in the human genome, large-scale genomic variants, such as copy number variations (CNVs), are being increasingly discovered as a genetic source of human diversity and the pathogenic factors of diseases. Recent experimental findings have shed light on the links between different genome architectures and CNV mutagenesis. In this review, we summarize various geno...
متن کاملSulfotransferase gene copy number variation: pharmacogenetics and function.
Pharmacogenetics is the study of the role of inheritance in variation to drug response. Drug response phenotypes can vary from adverse drug reactions at one end of the spectrum to equally serious lack of the desired effect of drug therapy at the other. Many of the current important examples of pharmacogenetics involve inherited variation in drug metabolism. Sulfate conjugation catalyzed by cyto...
متن کاملEvaluation of HER2, MDM2, MYC, MET and TP53 gene copy number alterations in gastric cancer patients
Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is considered as one of the most common types of cancer worldwide with poor prognosis and generally limited treatment options. Recent studies have indicated that HER2, MDM2, MYC, MET, and TP53 play an important role in the development of gastric cancer. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of amplification/deletion of these genes in pati...
