Background and Aims: Whether hepatitis B virus (HBV) could play a direct role in hepatocarcinogenesis remains uncertain. The 3' end nonsense mutations of HBV PreS/S gene have been found to encode transcriptional transactivation activity, suggesting these mutations may contribute to HBV-associated on...

In-depth information regarding the DFCI OncoPanel sequencing panel has been described previously. Briefly, sequencing is performed using an Illumina HiSeq 2500 system (RRID:SCR_016383) with 2×100 paired-end reads. Samples must meet an average 50X coverage and minimum of 30X coverage for 80% of targe...

Nonviral delivery of chemically modified tRNA rescues nonsense mutations
The role of many splicing factors in pre-mRNA splicing and the involvement of these factors in the processing of specific transcripts have often been defined through the analysis of loss of function mutants in vivo. Here we show that inactivating the nonsense mediated mRNA decay (NMD) results in an ...

Nonsense mutations generate premature termination codons (PTCs) that are responsible for 11% of human genetic disease alleles. Thus, nonsense suppressor tRNAs have broad therapeutic potential. Humans encode > 600 tRNA genes with many identical or similar copies of each tRNA. We hypothesized that tRN...

Inhibition of the nonsense mediated decay (NMD) mechanism in cells results in stabilization of transcripts carrying premature translation termination codons. A strategy referred to as gene indentification by NMD inhibition (GINI) has been proposed to identify genes carrying nonsense mutations (Noen...

Nonviral delivery of chemically modified tRNA rescues nonsense mutations [Ribo-Seq]
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by molecular heterogeneity. As commonly altered genomic regions point to candidate genes involved in leukemogenesis, we used microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization and single nucleotide polymorphism profiling data of 391 AML cases to further ...
