Recent studies have suggested that elevated expression of aldoketoreductase (AKR) 1C1 or 1C2 in tumour cells is associated with increased resistance to DNA damaging agents such as cisplatin and doxorubicin. However, it has not been shown whether selection of tumour cells for resistance to DNA-damag...

Primary human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF) were infected with wild-type simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) strain 17 at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 10. Ribosome profiling was performed at various times during infection with minor modification to the protocol described in Stern-Ginossar N et al., Science...

The genetic makeup of an individual strongly influences the risk of developing systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The identification of genes that predispose an individual to SLE will lead to earlier and better diagnosis, better treatments, and possibly prevention.

To this end, t...

SAGA member Ada2 is required for the majority of H3K9 acetylation in C. neoformans. To identify specific genomic loci that exhibit Ada2-dependent H3K9 acetylation, we performed ChIP-Seq against H3K9ac in wildtype and ada2Δ cells. ChIP-Seq was performed using antibodies for H3K9ac in KN99 wildtype ce...

Eukaryotic DNA methylation is found in silent transposable elements and active genes. Nucleosome remodelers of the DDM1/Lsh family are thought to be specifically required to maintain transposon methylation, but the reason for this is unknown. Here, we find that a chromatin gradient that extends from...

Cryptococcus neoformans is a fungal pathogen responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths per year. Its critical virulence factor is a polysacharride capsule which grows large upon entry into a mammalian host. We previously identified USV101 as a transcription factor whose deletion results in enl...

Purpose: Key steps in understanding a biological process include identifying genes that are involved and determining how they are regulated. We developed a novel method for identifying TFs involved in a specific process and used it to map regulation of the key virulence factor of Cryptococcus neofor...

Prostate cancer is a prevalent cause of cancer morbidity and mortality in men. In order to characterize the full range of somatic mutations in protein-coding genes that may drive the growth of prostate cancer, we sequenced the exonic regions of genomic and tumor DNA from over 100 patients with hi...

This study was the first-known effort to complete the complete genome sequencing of primary colorectal adenocarcinomas and the matched germline genome. Nine colorectal adenocarcinomas selected on the basis of having chromosomal instability were subjected to 'shotgun' Illumina sequencing w...
