Groin hernias emerge at the myopectineal orifice of Fruchaud which is closed off by the fascia transversalis. Our previous studies showed structural and quantitative changes of the fascia transversalis elastic fibers of inguinal hernia patients and elderly people. The present study used single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) elastin (analysis to investigate the 34 exons of the ELN gene ...
Bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) offer many advantages for functional studies of large eukaryotic genes. To utilize the potential applications of BACs optimally, new approaches that allow rapid and precise engineering of these large molecules are required. Here, we describe a simple and flexible two-step approach based on ET recombination, which permits point mutations to be introduced i...
The recent discovery of activating somatic mutations in cancer that correlate with phenotypes such as drug responsiveness, has generated renewed interest in the sequencing of genomes of tumor samples and cancer cancer cell lines with the goal of identifying the set of mutations that produce those phenotypes [1]. The two most popular strategies for discovering these events are array CGH [2], and...
Somatic mutation calling from next-generation sequencing data remains a challenge due to the difficulties of distinguishing true somatic events from artifacts arising from PCR, sequencing errors or mis-mapping. Tumor cellularity or purity, sub-clonality and copy number changes also confound the identification of true somatic events against a background of germline variants. We have developed a ...
Factor lX,, ,,,. is a variant factor IX molecule responsible for a clinically moderate form of hemophilia B. Twenty-five kilobases (kb) of the variant gene, including seven exons coding for the structural protein, were cloned and characterized. The restriction map and the arrangement of coding regions are identical to those of the normal gene. DNA sequence analysis of the coding regions reveale...
Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) plays an important role in cell growth, and its activity is regulated by many mechanisms. The biochemical characteristics of ODC in malignant cells differ from those of ODC in normal cells. To determine whether novel changes occur in ODC in neoplastic tissue, we compared the nucleotide sequence of ODC cDNA obtained from human hepatoma tissue as determined by revers...
Mutations in TRPM1 are found in humans with an autosomal recessive form of complete congenital stationary night blindness (cCSNB). The Trpm1(-/-) mouse has been an important animal model for this condition. Here we report a new mouse mutant, tvrm27, identified in a chemical mutagenesis screen. Genetic mapping of the no b-wave electroretinogram (ERG) phenotype of tvrm27 localized the mutation to...
Infection with equid herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) leads to respiratory disease, abortion, and neurologic disorders in horses. Molecular epidemiology studies have demonstrated that a single nucleotide polymorphism resulting in an amino acid variation of the EHV-1 DNA polymerase (N752/D752) is significantly associated with the neuropathogenic potential of naturally occurring strains. To test the hy...
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP; OMIM 135100) is a rare but extremely disabling genetic disorder of the skeletal system, and is characterized by the progressive development of ectopic ossification of skeletal muscles and subsequent joint ankylosis. The c.617G>A; p.R206H point mutation in the activin A type I receptor (ACVR1) gene has been reported to be a causative mutation of FOP. I...
We have examined the relationship between point mutation of the p53 tumor suppressor gene and survival in colorectal cancer patients. We found that patients with tumors harboring mutated p53 genes showed a significantly poorer prognosis than did those patients with genes without point mutations, and, moreover, patient response to postoperative therapies depended significantly on mutation status...
