Integrated genomic analyses of ovarian carcinoma

Debra A. Bell, +285 more
- 30 Jun 2011 - 
TL;DR: It is reported that high-grade serous ovarian cancer is characterized by TP53 mutations in almost all tumours (96%); low prevalence but statistically recurrent somatic mutations in nine further genes including NF1, BRCA1,BRCA2, RB1 and CDK12; 113 significant focal DNA copy number aberrations; and promoter methylation events involving 168 genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of TGF-β Signaling from Cell Membrane to the Nucleus

TL;DR: Current understanding on the mechanisms of TGF-β signaling from cell membrane to the nucleus is presented and the transcriptional regulation of target gene expression is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular mechanisms of caspase regulation during apoptosis

TL;DR: The present understanding of caspase regulation during apoptosis is described and biochemical and structural studies have led to important advances in understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms of cispase regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Galvanization of Biology: A Growing Appreciation for the Roles of Zinc

TL;DR: The ability of zinc to be bound specifically within a range of tetrahedral sites appears to be responsible for the evolution of the wide range of zinc-stabilized structural domains now known to exist.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of Caspase Activation and Inhibition during Apoptosis

TL;DR: Current understanding of caspase regulation during apoptosis is presented and structural and biochemical studies on procaspases, IAPs, Smac/DIABLO, and apoptosome are reviewed.
