TLDR
It is shown that the locus on chromosome 9 contains a gene highly homologous to the Drosophila gene Notch, which may be important for normal lymphocyte function and that alteration of TAN-1 may play a role in the pathogenesis of some T cell neoplasms.About:

Stem cells, cancer, and cancer stem cells
TL;DR: Stem cell biology has come of age: Unequivocal proof that stem cells exist in the haematopoietic system has given way to the prospective isolation of several tissue-specific stem and progenitor cells, the initial delineation of their properties and expressed genetic programmes, and the beginnings of their utility in regenerative medicine.

TL;DR: These findings greatly expand the role of activated NOTCH1 in the molecular pathogenesis of human T-ALL and provide a strong rationale for targeted therapies that interfere with NOTCH signaling.

TL;DR: The characterization of the human Notch3 gene, which was previously mapped to the CADASIL critical region, is reported, indicating that Notch 3 could be the defective protein in CADASil patients.

TL;DR: To explore the genetic origins of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, whole-exome sequencing and gene copy number analyses were used to study 32 primary tumors and identified mutations in FBXW7 and NotCH1, suggesting that NOTCH1 may function as a tumor suppressor gene rather than an oncogene in this tumor type.

Chromosomal translocations in human cancer.
TL;DR: Fusion proteins formed after chromosomal translocations are common in a range of tumour types; these are unique tumour antigens and are therefore potential targets for therapy design.

DNA sequencing with chain-terminating inhibitors
TL;DR: A new method for determining nucleotide sequences in DNA is described, which makes use of the 2',3'-dideoxy and arabinon nucleoside analogues of the normal deoxynucleoside triphosphates, which act as specific chain-terminating inhibitors of DNA polymerase.

A technique for radiolabeling DNA restriction endonuclease fragments to high specific activity
TL;DR: A technique for conveniently radiolabeling DNA restriction endonuclease fragments to high specific activity is described, and these "oligolabeled" DNA fragments serve as efficient probes in filter hybridization experiments.
A technique for radiolabeling DNA restriction endonuclease fragments to high specific activity
TL;DR: In this article, a technique for conveniently radiolabeling DNA restriction endonuclease fragments to high specific activity is described, where DNA fragments are purified from agarose gels directly by ethanol precipitation and are then denatured and labeled with the large fragment of DNA polymerase I, using random oligonucleotides as primers.
