    Seeking genetic susceptibility variants for colorectal cancer: the EPICOLON consortium experience (2012)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-04-16
    Description: The EPICOLON consortium was initiated in 1999 by the Gastrointestinal Oncology Group of the Spanish Gastroenterology Association. It recruited consecutive, unselected, population-based colorectal cancer (CRC) cases and control subjects matched by age and gender without personal or familial history of cancer all over Spain with the main goal of gaining knowledge in Lynch syndrome and familial CRC. This epidemiological, prospective and multicentre study collected extensive clinical data and biological samples from ~2000 CRC cases and 2000 controls in Phases 1 and 2 involving 25 and 14 participating hospitals, respectively. Genetic susceptibility projects in EPICOLON have included candidate-gene approaches evaluating single-nucleotide polymorphisms/genes from the historical category (linked to CRC risk by previous studies), from human syntenic CRC susceptibility regions identified in mouse, from the CRC carcinogenesis-related pathways Wnt and BMP, from regions 9q22 and 3q22 with positive linkage in CRC families, and from the mucin gene family. This consortium has also participated actively in the identification 5 of the 16 common, low-penetrance CRC genetic variants identified so far by genome-wide association studies. Finishing their own pangenomic study and performing whole-exome sequencing in selected CRC samples are among EPICOLON future research prospects.

    Oil for the cancer engine: The cross-talk between oncogenic signaling and polyamine metabolism (2018)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018-01-25
    Description: The study of metabolism has provided remarkable information about the biological basis and therapeutic weaknesses of cancer cells. Classic biochemistry established the importance of metabolic alterations in tumor biology and revealed the importance of various metabolite families to the tumorigenic process. We have evidence of the central role of polyamines, small polycatonic metabolites, in cell proliferation and cancer growth from these studies. However, how cancer cells activate this metabolic pathway and the molecular cues behind the oncogenic action of polyamines has remained largely obscure. In contrast to the view of metabolites as fuel (anabolic intermediates) for cancer cells, polyamines are better defined as the oil that lubricates the cancer engine because they affect the activity of biological processes. Modern research has brought back to the limelight this metabolic pathway, providing a strong link between genetic, metabolic, and signaling events in cancer. In this review, we enumerate and discuss current views of the regulation and activity of polyamine metabolism in tumor cell biology.

    The deubiquitinylation and localization of PTEN are regulated by a HAUSP-PML network (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-08-22
    Description: Nuclear exclusion of the PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted in chromosome 10) tumour suppressor has been associated with cancer progression. However, the mechanisms leading to this aberrant PTEN localization in human cancers are currently unknown. We have previously reported that ubiquitinylation of PTEN at specific lysine residues regulates its nuclear-cytoplasmic partitioning. Here we show that functional promyelocytic leukaemia protein (PML) nuclear bodies co-ordinate PTEN localization by opposing the action of a previously unknown PTEN-deubiquitinylating enzyme, herpesvirus-associated ubiquitin-specific protease (HAUSP, also known as USP7), and that the integrity of this molecular framework is required for PTEN to be able to enter the nucleus. We find that PTEN is aberrantly localized in acute promyelocytic leukaemia, in which PML function is disrupted by the PML-RARalpha fusion oncoprotein. Remarkably, treatment with drugs that trigger PML-RARalpha degradation, such as all-trans retinoic acid or arsenic trioxide, restore nuclear PTEN. We demonstrate that PML opposes the activity of HAUSP towards PTEN through a mechanism involving the adaptor protein DAXX (death domain-associated protein). In support of this paradigm, we show that HAUSP is overexpressed in human prostate cancer and is associated with PTEN nuclear exclusion. Thus, our results delineate a previously unknown PML-DAXX-HAUSP molecular network controlling PTEN deubiquitinylation and trafficking, which is perturbed by oncogenic cues in human cancer, in turn defining a new deubiquitinylation-dependent model for PTEN subcellular compartmentalization.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3398484/" 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/PMC3398484/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Song, Min Sup -- Salmena, Leonardo -- Carracedo, Arkaitz -- Egia, Ainara -- Lo-Coco, Francesco -- Teruya-Feldstein, Julie -- Pandolfi, Pier Paolo -- P50 CA092629/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P50 CA092629-01/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA082328/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2008 Oct 9;455(7214):813-7. doi: 10.1038/nature07290.

    ETS rearrangements and prostate cancer initiation (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-02-13
    Description: The first recurrent translocation event in prostate cancer has been recently described; it results in the translocation of an ETS (E26 transformation specific) transcription factor (ERG or ETV1) to the TMPRSS2 promoter region, which contains androgen responsive elements. The TMPRSS2:ERG genetic rearrangement has been reported to occur in approximately 40% of primary prostate tumours (ETV1 genetic rearrangements occur at a much lower frequency), and it results in the aberrant androgen-regulated expression of ERG. Tomlins et al. concluded that ETS genetic rearrangements are sufficient to initiate prostate neoplasia. However, here we show that ETS genetic rearrangements may in fact represent progression events rather than initiation events in prostate tumorigenesis. To this end, we demonstrate that the prostate-specific overexpression of ERG does not initiate prostate tumorigenesis.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2967456/" 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/PMC2967456/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Carver, Brett S -- Tran, Jennifer -- Chen, Zhenbang -- Carracedo-Perez, Arkaitz -- Alimonti, Andrea -- Nardella, Caterina -- Gopalan, Anuradha -- Scardino, Peter T -- Cordon-Cardo, Carlos -- Gerald, William -- Pandolfi, Pier Paolo -- P50 CA092629/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P50 CA092629-10/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA082328/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA082328-12/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 MD004038/MD/NIMHD NIH HHS/ -- U01 CA084292/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U01 CA084292-10/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2009 Feb 12;457(7231):E1; discussion E2-3. doi: 10.1038/nature07738.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cancer Biology and Genetics Program, Sloan-Kettering Institute, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York 10021, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19212347" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Common variants conferring risk of schizophrenia (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-07-03
    Description: Schizophrenia is a complex disorder, caused by both genetic and environmental factors and their interactions. Research on pathogenesis has traditionally focused on neurotransmitter systems in the brain, particularly those involving dopamine. Schizophrenia has been considered a separate disease for over a century, but in the absence of clear biological markers, diagnosis has historically been based on signs and symptoms. A fundamental message emerging from genome-wide association studies of copy number variations (CNVs) associated with the disease is that its genetic basis does not necessarily conform to classical nosological disease boundaries. Certain CNVs confer not only high relative risk of schizophrenia but also of other psychiatric disorders. The structural variations associated with schizophrenia can involve several genes and the phenotypic syndromes, or the 'genomic disorders', have not yet been characterized. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based genome-wide association studies with the potential to implicate individual genes in complex diseases may reveal underlying biological pathways. Here we combined SNP data from several large genome-wide scans and followed up the most significant association signals. We found significant association with several markers spanning the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region on chromosome 6p21.3-22.1, a marker located upstream of the neurogranin gene (NRGN) on 11q24.2 and a marker in intron four of transcription factor 4 (TCF4) on 18q21.2. Our findings implicating the MHC region are consistent with an immune component to schizophrenia risk, whereas the association with NRGN and TCF4 points to perturbation of pathways involved in brain development, memory and cognition.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3077530/" 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/PMC3077530/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stefansson, Hreinn -- Ophoff, Roel A -- Steinberg, Stacy -- Andreassen, Ole A -- Cichon, Sven -- Rujescu, Dan -- Werge, Thomas -- Pietilainen, Olli P H -- Mors, Ole -- Mortensen, Preben B -- Sigurdsson, Engilbert -- Gustafsson, Omar -- Nyegaard, Mette -- Tuulio-Henriksson, Annamari -- Ingason, Andres -- Hansen, Thomas -- Suvisaari, Jaana -- Lonnqvist, Jouko -- Paunio, Tiina -- Borglum, Anders D -- Hartmann, Annette -- Fink-Jensen, Anders -- Nordentoft, Merete -- Hougaard, David -- Norgaard-Pedersen, Bent -- Bottcher, Yvonne -- Olesen, Jes -- Breuer, Rene -- Moller, Hans-Jurgen -- Giegling, Ina -- Rasmussen, Henrik B -- Timm, Sally -- Mattheisen, Manuel -- Bitter, Istvan -- Rethelyi, Janos M -- Magnusdottir, Brynja B -- Sigmundsson, Thordur -- Olason, Pall -- Masson, Gisli -- Gulcher, Jeffrey R -- Haraldsson, Magnus -- Fossdal, Ragnheidur -- Thorgeirsson, Thorgeir E -- Thorsteinsdottir, Unnur -- Ruggeri, Mirella -- Tosato, Sarah -- Franke, Barbara -- Strengman, Eric -- Kiemeney, Lambertus A -- Genetic Risk and Outcome in Psychosis (GROUP) -- Melle, Ingrid -- Djurovic, Srdjan -- Abramova, Lilia -- Kaleda, Vasily -- Sanjuan, Julio -- de Frutos, Rosa -- Bramon, Elvira -- Vassos, Evangelos -- Fraser, Gillian -- Ettinger, Ulrich -- Picchioni, Marco -- Walker, Nicholas -- Toulopoulou, Timi -- Need, Anna C -- Ge, Dongliang -- Yoon, Joeng Lim -- Shianna, Kevin V -- Freimer, Nelson B -- Cantor, Rita M -- Murray, Robin -- Kong, Augustine -- Golimbet, Vera -- Carracedo, Angel -- Arango, Celso -- Costas, Javier -- Jonsson, Erik G -- Terenius, Lars -- Agartz, Ingrid -- Petursson, Hannes -- Nothen, Markus M -- Rietschel, Marcella -- Matthews, Paul M -- Muglia, Pierandrea -- Peltonen, Leena -- St Clair, David -- Goldstein, David B -- Stefansson, Kari -- Collier, David A -- 089061/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 1R01HL087679-01/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- PDA/02/06/016/Department of Health/United Kingdom -- R01 MH078075/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2009 Aug 6;460(7256):744-7. doi: 10.1038/nature08186.

    Synaptic, transcriptional and chromatin genes disrupted in autism (2014)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-11-05
    Description: The genetic architecture of autism spectrum disorder involves the interplay of common and rare variants and their impact on hundreds of genes. Using exome sequencing, here we show that analysis of rare coding variation in 3,871 autism cases and 9,937 ancestry-matched or parental controls implicates 22 autosomal genes at a false discovery rate (FDR) 〈 0.05, plus a set of 107 autosomal genes strongly enriched for those likely to affect risk (FDR 〈 0.30). These 107 genes, which show unusual evolutionary constraint against mutations, incur de novo loss-of-function mutations in over 5% of autistic subjects. Many of the genes implicated encode proteins for synaptic formation, transcriptional regulation and chromatin-remodelling pathways. These include voltage-gated ion channels regulating the propagation of action potentials, pacemaking and excitability-transcription coupling, as well as histone-modifying enzymes and chromatin remodellers-most prominently those that mediate post-translational lysine methylation/demethylation modifications of histones.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4402723/" 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/PMC4402723/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉De Rubeis, Silvia -- He, Xin -- Goldberg, Arthur P -- Poultney, Christopher S -- Samocha, Kaitlin -- Cicek, A Erucment -- Kou, Yan -- Liu, Li -- Fromer, Menachem -- Walker, Susan -- Singh, Tarinder -- Klei, Lambertus -- Kosmicki, Jack -- Shih-Chen, Fu -- Aleksic, Branko -- Biscaldi, Monica -- Bolton, Patrick F -- Brownfeld, Jessica M -- Cai, Jinlu -- Campbell, Nicholas G -- Carracedo, Angel -- Chahrour, Maria H -- Chiocchetti, Andreas G -- Coon, Hilary -- Crawford, Emily L -- Curran, Sarah R -- Dawson, Geraldine -- Duketis, Eftichia -- Fernandez, Bridget A -- Gallagher, Louise -- Geller, Evan -- Guter, Stephen J -- Hill, R Sean -- Ionita-Laza, Juliana -- Jimenz Gonzalez, Patricia -- Kilpinen, Helena -- Klauck, Sabine M -- Kolevzon, Alexander -- Lee, Irene -- Lei, Irene -- Lei, Jing -- Lehtimaki, Terho -- Lin, Chiao-Feng -- Ma'ayan, Avi -- Marshall, Christian R -- McInnes, Alison L -- Neale, Benjamin -- Owen, Michael J -- Ozaki, Noriio -- Parellada, Mara -- Parr, Jeremy R -- Purcell, Shaun -- Puura, Kaija -- Rajagopalan, Deepthi -- Rehnstrom, Karola -- Reichenberg, Abraham -- Sabo, Aniko -- Sachse, Michael -- Sanders, Stephan J -- Schafer, Chad -- Schulte-Ruther, Martin -- Skuse, David -- Stevens, Christine -- Szatmari, Peter -- Tammimies, Kristiina -- Valladares, Otto -- Voran, Annette -- Li-San, Wang -- Weiss, Lauren A -- Willsey, A Jeremy -- Yu, Timothy W -- Yuen, Ryan K C -- DDD Study -- Homozygosity Mapping Collaborative for Autism -- UK10K Consortium -- Cook, Edwin H -- Freitag, Christine M -- Gill, Michael -- Hultman, Christina M -- Lehner, Thomas -- Palotie, Aaarno -- Schellenberg, Gerard D -- Sklar, Pamela -- State, Matthew W -- Sutcliffe, James S -- Walsh, Christiopher A -- Scherer, Stephen W -- Zwick, Michael E -- Barett, Jeffrey C -- Cutler, David J -- Roeder, Kathryn -- Devlin, Bernie -- Daly, Mark J -- Buxbaum, Joseph D -- 5UL1 RR024975/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- MH077139/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH089482/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH095034/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- P30 HD15052/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055751/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH061009/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH083565/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH089482/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH094400/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH095797/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH097849/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH100229/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS073601/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01MH083565/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01MH089208/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R37 MH057881/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- RC2MH089952/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- T32 HG002295/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U01 MH100209/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U01 MH100229/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U01 MH100233/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U01 MH100239/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U01MH100209/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U01MH100229/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U01MH100233/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U01MH100239/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG003067/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- UL1TR000445/TR/NCATS NIH HHS/ -- WT091310/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- WT098051/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- England -- Nature. 2014 Nov 13;515(7526):209-15. doi: 10.1038/nature13772.

    Reconstructing Native American population history (2012)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-07-18
    Description: The peopling of the Americas has been the subject of extensive genetic, archaeological and linguistic research; however, central questions remain unresolved. One contentious issue is whether the settlement occurred by means of a single migration or multiple streams of migration from Siberia. The pattern of dispersals within the Americas is also poorly understood. To address these questions at a higher resolution than was previously possible, we assembled data from 52 Native American and 17 Siberian groups genotyped at 364,470 single nucleotide polymorphisms. Here we show that Native Americans descend from at least three streams of Asian gene flow. Most descend entirely from a single ancestral population that we call 'First American'. However, speakers of Eskimo-Aleut languages from the Arctic inherit almost half their ancestry from a second stream of Asian gene flow, and the Na-Dene-speaking Chipewyan from Canada inherit roughly one-tenth of their ancestry from a third stream. We show that the initial peopling followed a southward expansion facilitated by the coast, with sequential population splits and little gene flow after divergence, especially in South America. A major exception is in Chibchan speakers on both sides of the Panama isthmus, who have ancestry from both North and South America.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3615710/" 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/PMC3615710/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Reich, David -- Patterson, Nick -- Campbell, Desmond -- Tandon, Arti -- Mazieres, Stephane -- Ray, Nicolas -- Parra, Maria V -- Rojas, Winston -- Duque, Constanza -- Mesa, Natalia -- Garcia, Luis F -- Triana, Omar -- Blair, Silvia -- Maestre, Amanda -- Dib, Juan C -- Bravi, Claudio M -- Bailliet, Graciela -- Corach, Daniel -- Hunemeier, Tabita -- Bortolini, Maria Catira -- Salzano, Francisco M -- Petzl-Erler, Maria Luiza -- Acuna-Alonzo, Victor -- Aguilar-Salinas, Carlos -- Canizales-Quinteros, Samuel -- Tusie-Luna, Teresa -- Riba, Laura -- Rodriguez-Cruz, Maricela -- Lopez-Alarcon, Mardia -- Coral-Vazquez, Ramon -- Canto-Cetina, Thelma -- Silva-Zolezzi, Irma -- Fernandez-Lopez, Juan Carlos -- Contreras, Alejandra V -- Jimenez-Sanchez, Gerardo -- Gomez-Vazquez, Maria Jose -- Molina, Julio -- Carracedo, Angel -- Salas, Antonio -- Gallo, Carla -- Poletti, Giovanni -- Witonsky, David B -- Alkorta-Aranburu, Gorka -- Sukernik, Rem I -- Osipova, Ludmila -- Fedorova, Sardana A -- Vasquez, Rene -- Villena, Mercedes -- Moreau, Claudia -- Barrantes, Ramiro -- Pauls, David -- Excoffier, Laurent -- Bedoya, Gabriel -- Rothhammer, Francisco -- Dugoujon, Jean-Michel -- Larrouy, Georges -- Klitz, William -- Labuda, Damian -- Kidd, Judith -- Kidd, Kenneth -- Di Rienzo, Anna -- Freimer, Nelson B -- Price, Alkes L -- Ruiz-Linares, Andres -- BB/1021213/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- GM057672/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM079558/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM079558-S1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HG006399/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- MH075007/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- NS037484/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS043538/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM079558/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM100233/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG006399/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R21 DK073818/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- England -- Nature. 2012 Aug 16;488(7411):370-4. doi: 10.1038/nature11258.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Genetics, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA. reich@genetics.med.harvard.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22801491" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Transcriptome and genome sequencing uncovers functional variation in humans (2013)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-17
    Description: Genome sequencing projects are discovering millions of genetic variants in humans, and interpretation of their functional effects is essential for understanding the genetic basis of variation in human traits. Here we report sequencing and deep analysis of messenger RNA and microRNA from lymphoblastoid cell lines of 462 individuals from the 1000 Genomes Project--the first uniformly processed high-throughput RNA-sequencing data from multiple human populations with high-quality genome sequences. We discover extremely widespread genetic variation affecting the regulation of most genes, with transcript structure and expression level variation being equally common but genetically largely independent. Our characterization of causal regulatory variation sheds light on the cellular mechanisms of regulatory and loss-of-function variation, and allows us to infer putative causal variants for dozens of disease-associated loci. Altogether, this study provides a deep understanding of the cellular mechanisms of transcriptome variation and of the landscape of functional variants in the human genome.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3918453/" 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/PMC3918453/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lappalainen, Tuuli -- Sammeth, Michael -- Friedlander, Marc R -- 't Hoen, Peter A C -- Monlong, Jean -- Rivas, Manuel A -- Gonzalez-Porta, Mar -- Kurbatova, Natalja -- Griebel, Thasso -- Ferreira, Pedro G -- Barann, Matthias -- Wieland, Thomas -- Greger, Liliana -- van Iterson, Maarten -- Almlof, Jonas -- Ribeca, Paolo -- Pulyakhina, Irina -- Esser, Daniela -- Giger, Thomas -- Tikhonov, Andrew -- Sultan, Marc -- Bertier, Gabrielle -- MacArthur, Daniel G -- Lek, Monkol -- Lizano, Esther -- Buermans, Henk P J -- Padioleau, Ismael -- Schwarzmayr, Thomas -- Karlberg, Olof -- Ongen, Halit -- Kilpinen, Helena -- Beltran, Sergi -- Gut, Marta -- Kahlem, Katja -- Amstislavskiy, Vyacheslav -- Stegle, Oliver -- Pirinen, Matti -- Montgomery, Stephen B -- Donnelly, Peter -- McCarthy, Mark I -- Flicek, Paul -- Strom, Tim M -- Geuvadis Consortium -- Lehrach, Hans -- Schreiber, Stefan -- Sudbrak, Ralf -- Carracedo, Angel -- Antonarakis, Stylianos E -- Hasler, Robert -- Syvanen, Ann-Christine -- van Ommen, Gert-Jan -- Brazma, Alvis -- Meitinger, Thomas -- Rosenstiel, Philip -- Guigo, Roderic -- Gut, Ivo G -- Estivill, Xavier -- Dermitzakis, Emmanouil T -- 075491/Z/04/B/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 076113/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 081917/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 083270/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 085475/B/08/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 085475/Z/08/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 085532/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 090367/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 090532/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 090532/Z/09/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 095552/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 095552/Z/11/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 098381/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- G0601261/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- MH090941/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM104371/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH090941/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- WT085532/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2013 Sep 26;501(7468):506-11. doi: 10.1038/nature12531.

    Supercomplex assembly determines electron flux in the mitochondrial electron transport chain (2013)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-07-03
    Description: The textbook description of mitochondrial respiratory complexes (RCs) views them as free-moving entities linked by the mobile carriers coenzyme Q (CoQ) and cytochrome c (cyt c). This model (known as the fluid model) is challenged by the proposal that all RCs except complex II can associate in supercomplexes (SCs). The proposed SCs are the respirasome (complexes I, III, and IV), complexes I and III, and complexes III and IV. The role of SCs is unclear, and their existence is debated. By genetic modulation of interactions between complexes I and III and III and IV, we show that these associations define dedicated CoQ and cyt c pools and that SC assembly is dynamic and organizes electron flux to optimize the use of available substrates.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lapuente-Brun, Esther -- Moreno-Loshuertos, Raquel -- Acin-Perez, Rebeca -- Latorre-Pellicer, Ana -- Colas, Carmen -- Balsa, Eduardo -- Perales-Clemente, Ester -- Quiros, Pedro M -- Calvo, Enrique -- Rodriguez-Hernandez, M A -- Navas, Placido -- Cruz, Raquel -- Carracedo, Angel -- Lopez-Otin, Carlos -- Perez-Martos, Acisclo -- Fernandez-Silva, Patricio -- Fernandez-Vizarra, Erika -- Enriquez, Jose Antonio -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2013 Jun 28;340(6140):1567-70. doi: 10.1126/science.1230381.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III, Madrid, Spain.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23812712" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Open-system processes in the differentiation of mafic magma in the Teide-Pico Viejo succession, Tenerife (2013)
    Geological Society of London
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-05-08
    Description: Oceanic island basalts are commonly thought to differentiate by fractional crystallization, yet closed-system fractionation models have so far failed to reproduce major and trace element variations observed in mafic lavas from the Teide–Pico Viejo stratovolcano complex on Tenerife. Here, new high-precision plagioclase trace element data are fed into such a fractionation model. The results confirm that fractionation of phenocrysts found in the lavas does not reproduce trace element variations, in particular enrichment of Sr and Zr observed in the Teide–Pico Viejo mafic suite. This enrichment of Sr and Zr is tested by an energy-constrained recharge, assimilation and fractional crystallization (EC-RAFC) model at high T and low T intervals, consistent with previously determined magma storage beneath Tenerife at sub-Moho depths. Published mineral–melt equilibrium relations using the plagioclase anorthite content (0.4 〈 X An 〈 0.8) constrain the temperature during differentiation. Gabbroic xenoliths found in Tenerife lavas are assumed as contaminant. Enrichment of Sr and Zr in the Teide mafic suite is reproduced by this combined assimilation and fractional crystallization model, as assimilation causes higher degrees of enrichment in incompatible trace elements than is possible by crystal fractionation alone. Recycling of plutonic roots may thus have significantly enriched trace elements in the primitive lavas of the Teide–Pico Viejo succession. Supplementary material: Detailed average mineral compositions of low and high Sr–Zr lavas, composition of the bulk extracts and full graphs of the recalculated closed-system model are available at www.geolsoc.org.uk/SUP18604 .
