The Genetic Epidemiology Network of Arteriopathy (GENOA) is one of four networks in the NHLBI Family-Blood Pressure Program (FBPP). GENOA's long-term objective is to elucidate the genetics of target organ complications of hypertension, including both atherosclerotic and arteriolosclerotic com...
DNA lesions encountered by replicative polymerases threaten genome stability and cell cycle progression. Here we report the identification of mutations in TRAIP, encoding an E3 RING ubiquitin ligase, in patients with microcephalic primordial dwarfism/Seckel syndrome. We establish that TRAIP relocali...
As normal cells approach their proliferative limit, they arrest to undergo replicative senescence, displaying large cell size, flat morphology and activation of senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-b-Gal). A subset of normal or tumor cells exposed in vitro or in vivo to chemotherapy agents s...

The bacterial type III secretion system (TTSS) is dedicated to directly effect host cell pathways by pathogens. In order to identify the key host responses of the various parts of the TTSS, we utilized expression profiling of a lung pneumocytes cell line, A549, exposed to various isogenic mutant str...
