Allele frequencies of 13 tetrameric short tandem repeat (STR) loci (D3S1358, TH01, D21S11, D18S51, D5S818, D13S317, D7S820, D16S539, CSF1PO, vWA, D8S1179, TPOX, FGA) and 2 pentameric short tandem repeat loci (Penta E and Penta D) included in the PowerPlex 16 kit were obtained from a sample of 116 unrelated individuals in Van-Ağri districts of the Eastern Anatolia region of Turkey. The expected performance of these loci for personal identification and paternity testing in this population was estimated.

Background: Histone H2B is highly expressed in many types of cancers and is involved in cancer development. H2B clustered histone 9 (H2BC9), a member of the H2B family, plays critical roles in gene expression regulation, chromosome structure, DNA repair stability, and cell cycle regulation. However, the diagnostic and prognostic value of H2BC9 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains unclear.

While all native tRNAs undergo extensive post-transcriptional modifications as a mechanism to regulate gene expression, mapping these modifications remains challenging. The critical barrier is the difficulty of readthrough of modifications by reverse transcriptases (RTs). Here we use Induro-a new group-II intron-encoded RT-to map and quantify genome-wide tRNA modifications in Induro-tRNAseq.

Cardiologists have analyzed daily patterns in the incidence of sudden cardiac death to identify environmental, behavioral, and physiological factors that trigger fatal arrhythmias. Recent studies have indicated an overall increase in sudden cardiac arrest during daytime hours when the frequency of arrhythmogenic triggers is highest. The risk of fatal arrhythmias arises from the interaction between these triggers-such as elevated sympathetic signaling, catecholamine levels, heart rate, afterload, and platelet aggregation-and the heart's susceptibility (myocardial substrate) to them.

Background: Mutations in STK11, KEAP1, and SMARCA4 predispose to inferior immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) efficacy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), particularly among KRAS-mutant cases. However, the frequency, clinicopathologic features, and clinical impact of deletions in these genes are poorly characterized.
Methods: Clinicopathologic correlates of STK11, KEAP1, and SMARCA4 deletion were analyzed in nonsquamous NSCLCs at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI).
