    Description: The diatom flora of three lakes in the ice-free Amery Oasis, East Antarctica, was studied. Two of the lakes are meltwater reservoirs, Terrasovoje Lake (31 m depth) and Radok Lake (362 m depth), while Beaver Lake (〉435 m depth) is an epishelf lake. The lakes can be characterized as cold, ultra-oligotrophic and alkaline, displaying moderate (Radok and Terrasovoje lakes) to high (Beaver Lake) conductivities. There was no diatom phytoplankton present in any of the three lakes. While 34 benthic diatom taxa were identified from modern and Holocene sediments of Terrasovoje and Radok lakes, a 30-cm long sediment core recovered in Beaver Lake was barren. Five species (Luticola muticopsis, Muelleria peraustralis, Pinnularia cymatopleura, Psammothidium metakryophilum, P. stauroneioides) are endemic to the Antarctic region. All identified taxa are photographically documented and brief notes on their taxonomy, biogeography and ecology are provided. The most abundant diatom taxa are Amphora veneta, Craticula cf. molesta, Diadesmis spp, M. peraustralis and Stauroneis anceps. This is the first report on the diatom flora in lakes of the Amery Oasis.

    Water chemistry, sediment radiocarbon age and diatom zonation at Peterson Inlet and Browning Bay, Antarctica (2003)
    PANGAEA
    In:  Supplement to: Cremer, Holger; Gore, Damian B; Melles, Martin; Roberts, Donna (2003): Palaeoclimatic significance of late Quaternary diatom assemblages from southern Windmill Islands, East Antarctica.

    Description: The late Quaternary palaeoenvironmental history of the southern Windmill Islands, East Antarctica, has been reconstructed using diatom assemblages from two long, well-dated sediment cores taken in two marine bays. The diatom assemblage of the lowest sediment layers suggests a warm climate with mostly open water conditions during the late Pleistocene. During the following glacial, the Windmill Islands were covered by grounded ice preventing any in situ bioproductivity. Following deglaciation, a sapropel with a well-preserved diatom assemblage was deposited from ~10500 cal yr BP. Between ~10500 and ~4000 cal yr BP, total organic carbon (Corg) and total diatom valve concentrations as well as the diatom species composition suggest relatively cool summer temperatures. Hydrological conditions in coastal bays were characterised by combined winter sea-ice and open water conditions. This extensive period of glacial retreat was followed by the Holocene optimum (~4000 to ~1000 cal yr BP), which occurred later in the southern Windmill Islands than in most other Antarctic coastal regions. Diatom assemblages in this period suggest ice-free conditions and meltwater-stratified waters in the marine bays during summer, which is also reflected in high proportions of freshwater diatoms in the sediments. The diatom assemblage in the upper sediments of both cores indicates Neoglacial cooling from ~1000 cal yr BP, which again led to seasonally persistent sea-ice on the bays. The Holocene optimum and cooling trends in the Windmill Islands did not occur contemporaneously with other Antarctic coastal regions, showing that the here presented record reflects partly local environmental conditions rather than global climatic trends.

    Human oocytes reprogram somatic cells to a pluripotent state (2011)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-10-08
    Description: The exchange of the oocyte's genome with the genome of a somatic cell, followed by the derivation of pluripotent stem cells, could enable the generation of specific cells affected in degenerative human diseases. Such cells, carrying the patient's genome, might be useful for cell replacement. Here we report that the development of human oocytes after genome exchange arrests at late cleavage stages in association with transcriptional abnormalities. In contrast, if the oocyte genome is not removed and the somatic cell genome is merely added, the resultant triploid cells develop to the blastocyst stage. Stem cell lines derived from these blastocysts differentiate into cell types of all three germ layers, and a pluripotent gene expression program is established on the genome derived from the somatic cell. This result demonstrates the feasibility of reprogramming human cells using oocytes and identifies removal of the oocyte genome as the primary cause of developmental failure after genome exchange.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Noggle, Scott -- Fung, Ho-Lim -- Gore, Athurva -- Martinez, Hector -- Satriani, Kathleen Crumm -- Prosser, Robert -- Oum, Kiboong -- Paull, Daniel -- Druckenmiller, Sarah -- Freeby, Matthew -- Greenberg, Ellen -- Zhang, Kun -- Goland, Robin -- Sauer, Mark V -- Leibel, Rudolph L -- Egli, Dieter -- England -- Nature. 2011 Oct 5;478(7367):70-5. doi: 10.1038/nature10397.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉The New York Stem Cell Foundation Laboratory, New York, New York, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21979046" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mosaic PPM1D mutations are associated with predisposition to breast and ovarian cancer (2012)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)

    Publication Date: 2012-12-18
    Description: Improved sequencing technologies offer unprecedented opportunities for investigating the role of rare genetic variation in common disease. However, there are considerable challenges with respect to study design, data analysis and replication. Using pooled next-generation sequencing of 507 genes implicated in the repair of DNA in 1,150 samples, an analytical strategy focused on protein-truncating variants (PTVs) and a large-scale sequencing case-control replication experiment in 13,642 individuals, here we show that rare PTVs in the p53-inducible protein phosphatase PPM1D are associated with predisposition to breast cancer and ovarian cancer. PPM1D PTV mutations were present in 25 out of 7,781 cases versus 1 out of 5,861 controls (P = 1.12 x 10(-5)), including 18 mutations in 6,912 individuals with breast cancer (P = 2.42 x 10(-4)) and 12 mutations in 1,121 individuals with ovarian cancer (P = 3.10 x 10(-9)). Notably, all of the identified PPM1D PTVs were mosaic in lymphocyte DNA and clustered within a 370-base-pair region in the final exon of the gene, carboxy-terminal to the phosphatase catalytic domain. Functional studies demonstrate that the mutations result in enhanced suppression of p53 in response to ionizing radiation exposure, suggesting that the mutant alleles encode hyperactive PPM1D isoforms. Thus, although the mutations cause premature protein truncation, they do not result in the simple loss-of-function effect typically associated with this class of variant, but instead probably have a gain-of-function effect. Our results have implications for the detection and management of breast and ovarian cancer risk. More generally, these data provide new insights into the role of rare and of mosaic genetic variants in common conditions, and the use of sequencing in their identification.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3759028/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3759028/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ruark, Elise -- Snape, Katie -- Humburg, Peter -- Loveday, Chey -- Bajrami, Ilirjana -- Brough, Rachel -- Rodrigues, Daniel Nava -- Renwick, Anthony -- Seal, Sheila -- Ramsay, Emma -- Duarte, Silvana Del Vecchio -- Rivas, Manuel A -- Warren-Perry, Margaret -- Zachariou, Anna -- Campion-Flora, Adriana -- Hanks, Sandra -- Murray, Anne -- Ansari Pour, Naser -- Douglas, Jenny -- Gregory, Lorna -- Rimmer, Andrew -- Walker, Neil M -- Yang, Tsun-Po -- Adlard, Julian W -- Barwell, Julian -- Berg, Jonathan -- Brady, Angela F -- Brewer, Carole -- Brice, Glen -- Chapman, Cyril -- Cook, Jackie -- Davidson, Rosemarie -- Donaldson, Alan -- Douglas, Fiona -- Eccles, Diana -- Evans, D Gareth -- Greenhalgh, Lynn -- Henderson, Alex -- Izatt, Louise -- Kumar, Ajith -- Lalloo, Fiona -- Miedzybrodzka, Zosia -- Morrison, Patrick J -- Paterson, Joan -- Porteous, Mary -- Rogers, Mark T -- Shanley, Susan -- Walker, Lisa -- Gore, Martin -- Houlston, Richard -- Brown, Matthew A -- Caufield, Mark J -- Deloukas, Panagiotis -- McCarthy, Mark I -- Todd, John A -- Breast and Ovarian Cancer Susceptibility Collaboration -- Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium -- Turnbull, Clare -- Reis-Filho, Jorge S -- Ashworth, Alan -- Antoniou, Antonis C -- Lord, Christopher J -- Donnelly, Peter -- Rahman, Nazneen -- 068545/Z/02/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 083948/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 090532/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 090532/Z/09/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 091157/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 095552/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 098051/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 100140/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 11174/Cancer Research UK/United Kingdom -- C12292/A11174/Cancer Research UK/United Kingdom -- CZB/4/540/Chief Scientist Office/United Kingdom -- ETM/137/Chief Scientist Office/United Kingdom -- ETM/75/Chief Scientist Office/United Kingdom -- G0000934/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- G0600329/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- G0800759/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- G0900747 91070/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- G9521010/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- MR/K006584/1/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2013 Jan 17;493(7432):406-10. doi: 10.1038/nature11725.
