From Sequence Similarity to Structural Homology of Proteins

TL;DR: It is pointed out that the size of the database of known protein three-dimensional structures can be significantly increased by the use of sequence homology, based on the following observations.

Abstract 2405: Identification of PHLPP as a tumour suppressor reveals the role of pathway feedback compensation in PTEN-mutant prostate cancer progression

TL;DR: It is demonstrated how the p53-response can antagonise co-deletion of PTEN and PHLPP to form a barrier against prostate cancer progression to emphasise the need for careful evaluation of PI 3-Kinase target therapy effects in prostate cancer and highlight the value of genetically engineered mouse models.

Protein Domain Hotspots Reveal Functional Mutations across Genes in Cancer

TL;DR: The notion of recurrence of mutations from single genes to gene families that share homologous protein domains is extended, lowering the threshold of detection and sharpening the functional interpretation of the impact of mutations, as protein domains more succinctly embody function than entire genes.

Targeting Adaptation to Cancer Treatment by Drug Combinations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide the mathematical formulation, implementation and validation of the TargetScore method, which identifies collective adaptive responses to targeted interventions as concurrent changes of phospho-proteins that are connected within a signaling network.
