«Our findings show that the gene mutation that causes Werner syndrome results in the disorganization of heterochromatin, and that this disruption of normal DNA packaging is a key driver of aging,» says Juan Carlos Izpisua Belmonte, a senior author on the paper.

Therefore, we sequenced the whole exomes of 98 HCCs from two hospitals in Taiwan and found that 78 % showed the distinctive mutational signature of AA exposure, accounting for most of the nonsilent mutations in known cancer driver genes.

She is particularly interested in the identification of cancer driver mutations, genes and pathways across tumor types and in the study of their targeted opportunities.

«These results indicate the NTRK fusion genes might be very potent drivers of cancer development that have the ability to generate tumors with few other mutations,» said co-corresponding author Suzanne Baker, Ph.D., a member of the St. Jude Department of Developmental Neurobiology.

Invivoscribe's clinical laboratories also offer comprehensive MyAML ®, MyHeme ®, MyMRD ®, and custom gene panels, that when used in combination with Invivoscribe's proprietary MyInformatics ® Software can identify and track primary driver mutations as well as the subclonal architecture and emergence of new driver mutations in patients with hematologic disease.

The Cancer Gene Census (CGC) database contains 547 such gene across various cancer types.5 Remarkably, few driver genes having specific point mutations appear to be sufficient to rewire signalling networks in cancer, 1 which at the same time shows that — at least from the mutational side — cancer does not consist of an «infinite» number of different diseases, and in many cases treatment options targeted against driver genes might be transferred from one case to the nGene Census (CGC) database contains 547 such gene across various cancer types.5 Remarkably, few driver genes having specific point mutations appear to be sufficient to rewire signalling networks in cancer, 1 which at the same time shows that — at least from the mutational side — cancer does not consist of an «infinite» number of different diseases, and in many cases treatment options targeted against driver genes might be transferred from one case to the ngene across various cancer types.5 Remarkably, few driver genes having specific point mutations appear to be sufficient to rewire signalling networks in cancer, 1 which at the same time shows that — at least from the mutational side — cancer does not consist of an «infinite» number of different diseases, and in many cases treatment options targeted against driver genes might be transferred from one case to the next.
