Published in 2018 at "Cancer cell"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ccell.2018.10.003

Abstract: Driver mutations in oncogenes encode proteins with gain-of-function properties that enhance fitness. Heterozygous mutations are thus viewed as sufficient for tumorigenesis. We describe widespread oncogenic mutant allele imbalance in 13,448 prospectively characterized cancers. Imbalance was… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "European Heart Journal"

DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehae666.3750

Abstract: Heart failure (HF) can be influenced by diverse modulators, such as genes involved in iron metabolism - HFE, SLC40A1 and TMPRSS6, and haematological and biochemical parameters - serum iron, ferritin, transferrin saturation, mean corpuscular volume… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Genome Biology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evae261

Abstract: Abstract Sexual reproduction with alternative generations in a life cycle is an important feature in eukaryotic evolution. Partial selfing can regulate the efficacy of purging deleterious alleles in the gametophyte phase and the masking effect… read more here.
