Genome-wide association study of long COVID

A genome-wide study by the Long COVID Host Genetics Initiative identifies an association between the FOXP4 locus and long COVID, implicating altered lung function in its pathophysiology.

Age-associated nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide decline drives CAR-T cell failure

Vannini and colleagues report that an age-associated decline in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide levels is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and reduced antitumor efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor T cells derived from older adults.

Scmaskgan: masked multi-scale CNN and attention-enhanced GAN for scRNA-seq dropout imputation

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) enables high-resolution analysis of cellular heterogeneity, but dropout events, where gene expression is undetected in individual cells, present a significant challenge...

The application of compressed sensing on tumor mutation burden calculation from overlapped pooling sequencing data

Tumor Mutation Burden (TMB) is commonly characterized as the number of non-synonymous somatic SNVs per megabase within the gene region identified through whole exon sequencing or targeted sequencing in a...

Structure, assembly and inhibition of the Toxoplasma gondii respiratory chain supercomplex

Here the authors demonstrate that the assembly of mitochondrial respiratory supercomplex (III2–IV) from Toxoplasma gondii is critical for parasite fitness. They reveal the basis for cytochrome b inhibition by atovaquone and improved ELQ inhibitors.

ProTaxoVis—protein taxonomic visualisation of presence

Protein presence information is an essential component of biological pathway identification. Presence of certain enzymes in an organism points towards the metabolic pathways that occur within it, whereas the...

APOBEC3 mutagenesis drives therapy resistance in breast cancer

Analysis of a large cohort of metastatic breast cancer samples shows that APOBEC mutational signatures are enriched in post-treatment samples. APOBEC activity was also associated with mutations known to drive drug resistance.

MCSP+ metastasis founder cells activate immunosuppression early in human melanoma metastatic colonization

Guetter et al. identify a melanoma-associated chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan-positive subpopulation of metastasis founder cells from lymph node biopsies of patients with melanoma and observe that they mediate immune evasion and predict systemic metastasis and poor outcomes.

Integrating genetic and gene expression data in network-based stratification analysis of cancers

Cancers are complex diseases that have heterogeneous genetic drivers and varying clinical outcomes. A critical area of cancer research is organizing patient cohorts into subtypes and associating subtypes with...
