Translation initiator EIF4G1 mutations in familial Parkinson disease

Marie-Christine Chartier-Harlin, +59 more
TL;DR: Genome-wide analysis of a multi-incident family with autosomal-dominant parkinsonism has implicated a locus on chromosomal region 3q26-q28 and highlighted a convergent pathway for monogenic, toxin and perhaps virally-induced Parkinson disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutator Suppression and Escape from Replication Error–Induced Extinction in Yeast

TL;DR: It is shown that populations tolerate mutation rates 1,000-fold above wild-type levels but collapse when the rate exceeds 10−3 inactivating mutations per gene per cell division and has implications for the role of mutator phenotypes in cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

dNTP pool levels modulate mutator phenotypes of error-prone DNA polymerase ε variants

TL;DR: DNTP pool levels correlate with Pol ε mutator severity, suggesting that treatments targeting dNTP pools could modulate mutator phenotypes for therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emergence of DNA polymerase ε antimutators that escape error-induced extinction in yeast.

TL;DR: It is indicated that unrepaired leading- and lagging-strand polymerase errors drive extinction within a few cell divisions and suggest that there are polymerase-specific pathways of mutator suppression.
