Abstract:
Abstract The p53 gene is the most frequently mutated gene in malignant tumors. We found that p53 abnormalities were observed in most cases of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Therefore, it is necessary to search for type of the functional abnormality (complete loss of function, partial loss of function, or gain of oncogenic function) of the p53 gene rather than the presence or absence of gene mutation. Here we would like to propose the concept “p53 mutational spectrum”. In this study we performed whole-exome sequencing of p53 using clinical specimens from OSCC and attempted to clarify the

Abstract The range of genomic drivers of leukemogenesis and clonal nature of the disease illustrate the heterogeneity of the mutational spectrum in AML. Genomic interrogation of the evolution of AML has begun to highlight the scope of somatic changes that occur between diagnosis and relapse.

Abstract:
Recent mutation accumulation results from invertebrate species suggest that mild deleterious mutation is far less frequent than previously thought, implying smaller expressed mutational loads. Although the rate (λ) and effect (s) of very slight deleterious mutation remain unknown, most mutational fitness decline would come from moderately deleterious mutation (s ≈ 0·2, λ ≈ 0·03), and this situation would not qualitatively change in harsh environments. Estimates of the average coefficient of dominance (h¯) of non-severe deleterious mutations are controversial. The typical value of h¯ = 0·4 can

Together, these three sexual-cycle-specific mutational classes account for 50% of the mutations in the sexual-cycle mutational spectrum. One third of all mutations occurred at one of two mut

1510 Background: Individuals who carry one mutated copy of the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes have elevated lifetime risks of breast and ovarian cancer. A number of studies have investigated the somatic mutational spectra of breast and ovarian tumors; however, BRCA1/2mutated tumors are underrepresented. Methods: Sixty-eight formalin-fixed paraffin embedded samples from BRCA1/2patients have been identified. Massively parallel sequencing using 48 gene capture is in process, whole exome sequencing of tumor and matched germline DNA is planned. Data are analyzed using a custom bioinformatics pipeline.

Abstract Introduction: CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (CEBPA) is a known transcription factor that regulates the balance of differentiation and proliferation of myeloid progenitors. The nature of CEBPA mutations and their prognostic impact in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have been extensively studied in the Western population, but have not been as well studied in other ethnic populations. There is some evidence that the AML mutational spectrum differs among ethnic groups (Yin et al, Leukemia Research, 2015).

Accordingly, this study aimed to identify the causative genetic mutations of the EDA gene.

However, most POLE mutations are passenger mutations and have no pathogenic role. Current methods to classify POLE mutations are limited in both accuracy and completeness, which could lead to inappropriate use of immune agents in tumor such as MSS CRC,
