TL;DR: EVP proteins can serve as reliable biomarkers for cancer detection and determining cancer type, and a panel of tumor-type-specific EVP proteins in TEs and plasma are defined, which can classify tumors of unknown primary origin.

TL;DR: A new class of E26 transformation-specific (ETS)-fusion-negative tumors defined by mutations in epigenetic regulators, as well as alterations in pathways not previously implicated in prostate cancer, such as the spliceosome pathway are identified.
Abstract: Comprehensive genomic characterization of prostate cancer has identified recurrent alterations in genes involved in androgen signaling, DNA repair, and PI3K signaling, among others. However, larger and uniform genomic analysis may identify additional recurrently mutated genes at lower frequencies. Here we aggregate and uniformly analyze exome sequencing data from 1,013 prostate cancers. We identify and validate a new class of E26 transformation-specific (ETS)-fusion-negative tumors defined by mutations in epigenetic regulators, as well as alterations in pathways not previously implicated in prostate cancer, such as the spliceosome pathway. We find that the incidence of significantly mutated genes (SMGs) follows a long-tail distribution, with many genes mutated in less than 3% of cases. We identify a total of 97 SMGs, including 70 not previously implicated in prostate cancer, such as the ubiquitin ligase CUL3 and the transcription factor SPEN. Finally, comparing primary and metastatic prostate cancer identifies a set of genomic markers that may inform risk stratification.

TL;DR: Models for the specific assembly of the RNA polymerase II transcription machinery at a promoter, conformational changes that occur during initiation of transcription, and the mechanism of initiation are discussed in light of recent developments.
Abstract: Advances in structure determination of the bacterial and eukaryotic transcription machinery have led to a marked increase in the understanding of the mechanism of transcription. Models for the specific assembly of the RNA polymerase II transcription machinery at a promoter, conformational changes that occur during initiation of transcription, and the mechanism of initiation are discussed in light of recent developments.

TL;DR: Transient HPV DNA was associated with a failure to seroconvert following incident HPV infection; however, some women with persistent HPV DNA never seroconverted, and antibody responses to HPV-16 and -18 were significantly more likely to persist during follow-up than were antibodies to HPV -6.
Abstract: The relationship between human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA in the genital mucosa and serum IgG to HPV-16, -18, and -6 was studied in a cohort of 588 college women. Among women with incident HPV infections, 59.5%, 54.1%, and 68.8% seroconverted for HPV-16, -18, or -6, respectively, within 18 months of detecting the corresponding HPV DNA. Transient HPV DNA was associated with a failure to seroconvert following incident HPV infection; however, some women with persistent HPV DNA never seroconverted. Antibody responses to each type were heterogeneous, but several type-specific differences were found: seroconversion for HPV-16 occurred most frequently between 6 and 12 months of DNA detection, but seroconversion for HPV-6 coincided with DNA detection. Additionally, antibody responses to HPV-16 and -18 were significantly more likely to persist during follow-up than were antibodies to HPV-6.
