Missense mutations of MADH4: characterization of the mutational hot spot and functional consequences in human tumors.
PURPOSE AND EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The mutational spectrum of MADH4 (DPC4/SMAD4) opens valuable insights into the functions of this protein that confer its tumor-suppressive nature in human tumors. We present the MADH4 genetic status determined on a new set of pancreatic, biliary, and duodenal cancers with comparison to the mutational data reported for various tumor types. RESULTS Homozygous del...
متن کاملNovel Missense Mitochondrial ND4L Gene Mutations in Friedreich's Ataxia
Objective(s) The mitochondrial defects in Friedreich's ataxia have been reported in many researches. Mitochondrial DNA is one of the candidates for defects in mitochondrion, and complex I is the first and one of the largest catalytic complexes of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) system. Materials and Methods We searched the mitochondrial ND4L gene for mutations by TTGE and sequencing on 30...
متن کاملBioinformatics Profiling of Missense Mutations
The ability to distinguish missense nucleotide substitutions that contribute to harmful effect from those that do not is a difficult problem usually accomplished through functional in vivo analyses. In this study, instead current biochemical methods, the effects of missense mutations upon protein structure and function were assayed by means of computational methods and information from the data...
متن کاملAnalysis of Missense Mutations of CX3CR1 Gene in Patients with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss Using Bioinformatics Tools
Introduction: Abortion is a common complication that refers to the early termination of pregnancy with the death of the fetus before the 20th week of pregnancy. Previous studies show that many genes are involved in this disease, including the CX3CR1 gene, which is one of the inflammatory response genes in the immune system. The pathogenicity of these variants was determined in this study using ...
متن کاملAssociation of Pathogenic Missense and Nonsense Mutations in Mitochondrial COII Gene with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP)
Nuclear genetic mutations have been extensively investigated in solid tumors. However, the role of the mitochondrial genome remains uncertain. Since the metabolism of solid tumors is associated with aerobic glycolysis and high lactate production, tumors may have mitochondrial dysfunctions. Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a rare form of colorectal cancer and an autosomal dominant inheri...
