    Description: Acute myeloid leukaemia is a highly malignant haematopoietic tumour that affects about 13,000 adults in the United States each year. The treatment of this disease has changed little in the past two decades, because most of the genetic events that initiate the disease remain undiscovered. Whole-genome sequencing is now possible at a reasonable cost and timeframe to use this approach for the unbiased discovery of tumour-specific somatic mutations that alter the protein-coding genes. Here we present the results obtained from sequencing a typical acute myeloid leukaemia genome, and its matched normal counterpart obtained from the same patient's skin. We discovered ten genes with acquired mutations; two were previously described mutations that are thought to contribute to tumour progression, and eight were new mutations present in virtually all tumour cells at presentation and relapse, the function of which is not yet known. Our study establishes whole-genome sequencing as an unbiased method for discovering cancer-initiating mutations in previously unidentified genes that may respond to targeted therapies.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2603574/" 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/PMC2603574/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ley, Timothy J -- Mardis, Elaine R -- Ding, Li -- Fulton, Bob -- McLellan, Michael D -- Chen, Ken -- Dooling, David -- Dunford-Shore, Brian H -- McGrath, Sean -- Hickenbotham, Matthew -- Cook, Lisa -- Abbott, Rachel -- Larson, David E -- Koboldt, Dan C -- Pohl, Craig -- Smith, Scott -- Hawkins, Amy -- Abbott, Scott -- Locke, Devin -- Hillier, Ladeana W -- Miner, Tracie -- Fulton, Lucinda -- Magrini, Vincent -- Wylie, Todd -- Glasscock, Jarret -- Conyers, Joshua -- Sander, Nathan -- Shi, Xiaoqi -- Osborne, John R -- Minx, Patrick -- Gordon, David -- Chinwalla, Asif -- Zhao, Yu -- Ries, Rhonda E -- Payton, Jacqueline E -- Westervelt, Peter -- Tomasson, Michael H -- Watson, Mark -- Baty, Jack -- Ivanovich, Jennifer -- Heath, Sharon -- Shannon, William D -- Nagarajan, Rakesh -- Walter, Matthew J -- Link, Daniel C -- Graubert, Timothy A -- DiPersio, John F -- Wilson, Richard K -- U54 HG002042/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG002042-05/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2008 Nov 6;456(7218):66-72. doi: 10.1038/nature07485.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri 63108, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18987736" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Cells of the monocyte-macrophage lineage are targets for human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infection in vivo. However, many laboratory strains of HIV-1 that efficiently infect transformed T cell lines replicate poorly in macrophages. A 20-amino acid sequence from the macrophage-tropic BaL isolate of HIV-1 was sufficient to confer macrophage tropism on HTLV-IIIB, a T cell line--tropic isolate. This small sequence element is in the V3 loop, the envelope domain that is the principal neutralizing determinant of HIV-1. Thus, the V3 loop not only serves as a target of the host immune response but is also pivotal in determining HIV-1 tissue tropism.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hwang, S S -- Boyle, T J -- Lyerly, H K -- Cullen, B R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1991 Jul 5;253(5015):71-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1905842" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Vesicular stomatitis virus is a negative-stranded RNA virus. Its nucleoprotein (N) binds the viral genomic RNA and is involved in multiple functions including transcription, replication, and assembly. We have determined a 2.9 angstrom structure of a complex containing 10 molecules of the N protein and 90 bases of RNA. The RNA is tightly sequestered in a cavity at the interface between two lobes of the N protein. This serves to protect the RNA in the absence of polynucleotide synthesis. For the RNA to be accessed, some conformational change in the N protein should be necessary.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Green, Todd J -- Zhang, Xin -- Wertz, Gail W -- Luo, Ming -- AI050066/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R37 AI012464/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R37 AI012464-28/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R37 AI012464-29/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R37 AI012464-30/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R37 AI012464-31/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R37AI012464/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jul 21;313(5785):357-60.

    Description: Integral beta-barrel proteins are found in the outer membranes of mitochondria, chloroplasts, and Gram-negative bacteria. The machine that assembles these proteins contains an integral membrane protein, called YaeT in Escherichia coli, which has one or more polypeptide transport-associated (POTRA) domains. The crystal structure of a periplasmic fragment of YaeT reveals the POTRA domain fold and suggests a model for how POTRA domains can bind different peptide sequences, as required for a machine that handles numerous beta-barrel protein precursors. Analysis of POTRA domain deletions shows which are essential and provides a view of the spatial organization of this assembly machine.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kim, Seokhee -- Malinverni, Juliana C -- Sliz, Piotr -- Silhavy, Thomas J -- Harrison, Stephen C -- Kahne, Daniel -- GM34821/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM66174/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Aug 17;317(5840):961-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17702946" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Membrane fusion between vesicles and target membranes involves the zippering of a four-helix bundle generated by constituent helices derived from target- and vesicle-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs). In neurons, the protein complexin clamps otherwise spontaneous fusion by SNARE proteins, allowing neurotransmitters and other mediators to be secreted when and where they are needed as this clamp is released. The membrane-proximal accessory helix of complexin is necessary for clamping, but its mechanism of action is unknown. Here, we present experiments using a reconstituted fusion system that suggest a simple model in which the complexin accessory helix forms an alternative four-helix bundle with the target-SNARE near the membrane, preventing the vesicle-SNARE from completing its zippering.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3736854/" 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/PMC3736854/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Giraudo, Claudio G -- Garcia-Diaz, Alejandro -- Eng, William S -- Chen, Yuhang -- Hendrickson, Wayne A -- Melia, Thomas J -- Rothman, James E -- R01 GM071458/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 23;323(5913):512-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1166500.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology and Cellular Biophysics, Columbia University, College of Physicians and Surgeons, 1150 Saint Nicholas Avenue, Russ Berrie Building, Room 520, New York, NY 10032, USA. claudio.giraudo@yale.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19164750" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is a bullet-shaped rhabdovirus and a model system of negative-strand RNA viruses. Through direct visualization by means of cryo-electron microscopy, we show that each virion contains two nested, left-handed helices: an outer helix of matrix protein M and an inner helix of nucleoprotein N and RNA. M has a hub domain with four contact sites that link to neighboring M and N subunits, providing rigidity by clamping adjacent turns of the nucleocapsid. Side-by-side interactions between neighboring N subunits are critical for the nucleocapsid to form a bullet shape, and structure-based mutagenesis results support this description. Together, our data suggest a mechanism of VSV assembly in which the nucleocapsid spirals from the tip to become the helical trunk, both subsequently framed and rigidified by the M layer.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2892700/" 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/PMC2892700/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ge, Peng -- Tsao, Jun -- Schein, Stan -- Green, Todd J -- Luo, Ming -- Zhou, Z Hong -- AI050066/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI069015/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM071940/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI050066/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI050066-08/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI069015/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM071940/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Feb 5;327(5966):689-93. doi: 10.1126/science.1181766.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics, University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), Los Angeles, CA 90095-7364, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20133572" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Carbon-fluorine bonds are the strongest known single bonds to carbon and as a consequence can prove very hard to cleave. Alhough vinyl and aryl C-F bonds can undergo oxidative addition to transition metal complexes, this reaction has appeared inoperable with aliphatic substrates. We report the addition of C(sp(3))-F bonds (including alkyl-F) to an iridium center via the initial, reversible cleavage of a C-H bond. These results suggest a distinct strategy for the development of catalysts and promoters to make and break C-F bonds, which are of strong interest in the context of both pharmaceutical and environmental chemistry.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Choi, Jongwook -- Wang, David Y -- Kundu, Sabuj -- Choliy, Yuriy -- Emge, Thomas J -- Krogh-Jespersen, Karsten -- Goldman, Alan S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2011 Jun 24;332(6037):1545-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1200514.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Rutgers, State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick, NJ 08903, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21700870" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Aneuploidy decreases cellular fitness, yet it is also associated with cancer, a disease of enhanced proliferative capacity. To investigate one mechanism by which aneuploidy could contribute to tumorigenesis, we examined the effects of aneuploidy on genomic stability. We analyzed 13 budding yeast strains that carry extra copies of single chromosomes and found that all aneuploid strains exhibited one or more forms of genomic instability. Most strains displayed increased chromosome loss and mitotic recombination, as well as defective DNA damage repair. Aneuploid fission yeast strains also exhibited defects in mitotic recombination. Aneuploidy-induced genomic instability could facilitate the development of genetic alterations that drive malignant growth in cancer.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3278960/" 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/PMC3278960/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sheltzer, Jason M -- Blank, Heidi M -- Pfau, Sarah J -- Tange, Yoshie -- George, Benson M -- Humpton, Timothy J -- Brito, Ilana L -- Hiraoka, Yasushi -- Niwa, Osami -- Amon, Angelika -- GM056800/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM056800/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2011 Aug 19;333(6045):1026-30. doi: 10.1126/science.1206412.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉David H.

    Description: Type II topoisomerases (TOP2s) resolve the topological problems of DNA by transiently cleaving both strands of a DNA duplex to form a cleavage complex through which another DNA segment can be transported. Several widely prescribed anticancer drugs increase the population of TOP2 cleavage complex, which leads to TOP2-mediated chromosome DNA breakage and death of cancer cells. We present the crystal structure of a large fragment of human TOP2beta complexed to DNA and to the anticancer drug etoposide to reveal structural details of drug-induced stabilization of a cleavage complex. The interplay between the protein, the DNA, and the drug explains the structure-activity relations of etoposide derivatives and the molecular basis of drug-resistant mutations. The analysis of protein-drug interactions provides information applicable for developing an isoform-specific TOP2-targeting strategy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wu, Chyuan-Chuan -- Li, Tsai-Kun -- Farh, Lynn -- Lin, Li-Ying -- Lin, Te-Sheng -- Yu, Yu-Jen -- Yen, Tien-Jui -- Chiang, Chia-Wang -- Chan, Nei-Li -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2011 Jul 22;333(6041):459-62. doi: 10.1126/science.1204117.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, College of Medicine, National Taiwan University, Taipei City 100, Taiwan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21778401" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Typically, pathogens deploy virulence effectors to disable defense. Plants defeat effectors with resistance proteins that guard effector targets. We found that a pathogen exploits a resistance protein by activating it to confer susceptibility in Arabidopsis. The guard mechanism of plant defense is recapitulated by interactions among victorin (an effector produced by the necrotrophic fungus Cochliobolus victoriae), TRX-h5 (a defense-associated thioredoxin), and LOV1 (an Arabidopsis susceptibility protein). In LOV1's absence, victorin inhibits TRX-h5, resulting in compromised defense but not disease by C. victoriae. In LOV1's presence, victorin binding to TRX-h5 activates LOV1 and elicits a resistance-like response that confers disease susceptibility. We propose that victorin is, or mimics, a conventional pathogen virulence effector that was defeated by LOV1 and confers virulence to C. victoriae solely because it incites defense.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4125361/" 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/PMC4125361/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lorang, J -- Kidarsa, T -- Bradford, C S -- Gilbert, B -- Curtis, M -- Tzeng, S-C -- Maier, C S -- Wolpert, T J -- BB/D016541/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- BB/H008039/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- P30 ES000210/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- P30ES200210/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2012 Nov 2;338(6107):659-62. doi: 10.1126/science.1226743.
