A single copy of a reporter gene cassette, such as PGKP-lacZ-LEU2 (promoter-reporter-marker gene) cassette, was inserted into one of 32 positions along chromosome III in Saccharomyces cerevisiae with an interval of approximately 10 kb. The amounts of translational gene product (beta-galactosidase) synthesized by the cassette-transformed cells were then determined. The region specificity in chromosome III could be demonstrated in gene expression: two higher-expressed regions (hot regions), 133 and 199 (MAT) regions, and seven lower-expressed regions (cold regions). For the steady and high production of polypeptide, foreign gene products, by yeast, we would like to state that we hope for an insertion of the artificially prepared gene cassette [(promoter)-(foreign gene)-(marker gene) ] into a hot region, such as 199 (MAT) region of chromosome III.

Background: Early and accurate diagnosis of sepsis and the ensuing organ dysfunction remain a challenge in the postoperative setting. Susceptibility to infections, as well as the subsequent immunological response, are driven to some extent by the genetic predisposition of the patient. The purpose of this study was to identify novel genetic variants associated with postoperative sepsis (POS) and surgical site infections (SSIs).

Department of Medical Oncology, Hospital Clinico Universitario, INCLIVA, Biomedical Research Institute, University of Valencia, Avenida Menendez Pelayo nro 4 accesorio, Valencia, Spain.
Introduction: Gastric cancer (GC) burden is currently evolving with regional differences associated with complex behavioural, environmental, and genetic risk factors. The LEGACy study is a Horizon 2020-funded multi-institutional research project conducted prospectively to provide comprehensive data on the tumour biological characteristics of gastroesophageal cancer from European and LATAM countries.
Material And Methods: Treatment-naïve advanced gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma patients were prospectively recruited in seven European and LATAM countries.

Department of Stem Cell Transplantation and Cellular Therapy, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas. Electronic address:
Background: Patients with multiple myeloma without high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities are classified as having standard-risk MM (SRMM), and data focusing on their outcomes after autologous stem-cell transplantation (autoHCT) are limited.
Objective: To evaluate survival outcomes for patients with SRMM receiving autoHCT, and to elucidate factors that impact these outcomes.
Study Design: Single-center retrospective analysis that included consecutive MM patients who received upfront autoHCT between 2013-2021, had available cytogenetic information and had no high-risk chromosomal abnormalities on fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), defined as t(4;14), t(14;16), del(17p) or 1q21 gain or amplification.

Background: Lynch syndrome (LS), characterised by an increased risk for cancer, is mainly caused by germline pathogenic variants affecting a mismatch repair gene (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2). Occasionally, LS may be caused by constitutional MLH1 epimutation (CME) characterised by soma-wide methylation of one allele of the MLH1 promoter. Most of these are "primary" epimutations, arising de novo without any apparent underlying cis-genetic cause, and are reversible between generations.

This case is a rare presentation of severe aplastic anemia in a 31-year-old male with acquired clonality of the X chromosome as the sole cytogenetic abnormality. This abnormality has not been reported to our knowledge, and the significance of this finding remains unclear. Comprehensive diagnostic workup included bone marrow biopsy, cytogenetic analysis, and Next-Generation sequencing, which revealed no tier I/II variants typically associated with clonal hematopoietic disorders.
