Lagging strand replication shapes the mutational landscape of the genome
The origin of mutations is central to understanding evolution and of key relevance to health. Variation occurs non-randomly across the genome, and mechanisms for this remain to be defined. Here we report that the 5' ends ... -
Bidirectional transcription initiation marks accessible chromatin and is not specific to enhancers
Enhancers are modular regulatory elements that are central to the spatial and temporal regulation of gene expression. Bidirectional transcription initiating at enhancers has been proposed to mark active enhancers and as ... -
GenomeArtiFinder variant include list
Background: The loss of genetic diversity in segments over a genome (loss-of-heterozygosity, LOH) is a common occurrence in many types of cancer. By analysing patterns of preferential allelic retention during LOH in ... -
Pervasive lesion segregation shapes cancer genome evolution
Cancers arise through the acquisition of oncogenic mutations and grow by clonal expansion. Here we reveal that most mutagenic DNA lesions are not resolved into a mutated DNA base pair within a single cell cycle. Instead, ...
