Defining chromosomal translocation risks in cancer.
Chromosomal translocations are a hallmark of cancer. Unraveling the molecular mechanism of these rare genetic events requires a clear distinction between correlative and causative risk-determinants, where technical and analytical issues can be excluded. To meet this goal, we performed in-depth analyses of publicly available genome-wide datasets. In contrast to several recent reports, we demonst...
متن کاملChromosomal translocation engineering to recapitulate primary events of human cancer.
Mouse models of human cancers are important for understanding determinants of overt disease and for "preclinical" development of rational therapeutic strategies; for instance, based on macrodrugs. Chromosomal translocations underlie many human leukemias, sarcomas, and epithelial tumors. We have developed three technologies based on homologous recombination in mouse ES cells to mimic human chrom...
متن کاملThe prevalence of chromosomal translocation t (1; 4) (p21; p14) in Iranian patients with mental disability
Introduction: Intellectual disability or intellectual retardation is a condition in which total mental functioning is distinctively below average and there are disabilities in adaptive behaviors during growth. According to the definition of American Mental Disability Community in 1992 a person is considered intellectually disabled if he or she has an IQ (intelligence quotient) of less than 70...
متن کاملA Chromosomal Translocation Causing Overproduction
The CYC7-1 mutation in the yeast Saccharomyces cereuisiae causes the production of approximately 30 times the normal amount of iso-2-cytochrome c. Genetic analysis established that the CYC7-I mutation is a reciprocal translocation involving the left arm of chromosome V and the right arm of chromosome XVZ. The chromosome V arm was broken adjacent to the gene CYC7, which determines the primary st...
متن کاملPrenatal Diagnosis of Triploidy in Fetus with Unexpected Chromosomal Translocation of Maternal Origin
Triploidy is a lethal chromosomal abnormality. Foetuses with triploid condition have a tendency to die in early conception and very few survive to term. In this study, we report the prenatal diagnosis of fetal triploidy with unexpected chromosomal translocation. A 27 years old women was referred to our clinical cytogenetic department due to history of previous conceptus with intrauterine growth...
