March 2019 in “European Journal of Human Genetics” This study found genetic variations, including de novo variants and copy number variations, that may be associated with phenotypic discordance in monozygotic twins with various clinical conditions.
This study used whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and selection in 17 rabbit breeds, identifying genes linked to traits like coat color and body size, which could inform breeding and conservation efforts.
This study found that the survival and proliferation of mouse melanocytes expressing the GNAQQ209L oncogene were impaired by interactions with the epidermal microenvironment, suggesting a possible mechanism for the rarity of these mutations in epidermal melanomas.
This study found that GNAQQ209L expression in mouse melanocytes led to reduced survival in the interfollicular epidermis due to paracrine signaling, while GNAQQ209L boosted survival in a different microenvironment.
