To characterize the subclonal genomic architecture of androgen-deprived metastatic prostate cancer, we performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 51 tumours from 10 patients to an average sequencing depth of 55x, including multiple metastases from different anatomic sites in each patient and, in fiv...
Recent sequencing studies have extensively explored the somatic alterations present in the nuclear genomes of cancers. Although mitochondria control energy metabolism and apoptosis, the origins and impact of cancer-associated mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are unclear. Here, we analysed soma...
To characterize the subclonal genomic architecture of non-androgen-deprived metastatic prostate cancer, we performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of pelvic lymph node metastases and matching noncancerous blood from 10 patients to an average sequencing depth of 55x. The patients are part of PELICAN ...
The role of the cyclin-cdk inhibitor p27 in tumorigenesis is still a controversial matter. We demonstrate here that p27 negatively regulates transcription of a number of genes (p27-target genes) involved in key cellular functions as RNA processing, translation, respiration and cell proliferation. Cr...

Frequent somatic transfer of mitochondrial DNA into the nuclear genome of human cancer cells
Mitochondrial genomes are separated from the nuclear genome for most of the cell cycle by the nuclear double membrane, intervening cytoplasm and the mitochondrial double membrane. Despite these physical barriers we show that somatically acquired mitochondrial-nuclear genome fusion sequences are pres...
