The constitutional chromosomal reciprocal translocation (CRT) involving chromosomes 9 and 22 has been previously published in only five occasions. We report the sixth case of a balanced t(9;22) carrier who came to medical attention following the birth of his child with tertiary monosomy due to 3:1 meiotic segregation. This is only the second occurrence of paternal parent-of-origin to the t(9;22) CRT and is the first report of a t(9;22) undergoing 3:1 disjunction. It is also unique in its constellation of clinical features that overlap with two well-described cytogenetic microdeletion syndromes: the 9q subtelomeric and 22q11.2 deletion syndromes. With its uncommon breakpoint at chromosome 9q34, this case also emphasizes the added importance of array comparative genomic hybridization to analysis of offspring born to CRT carrier parents.

Cancer cell overexpresses numerus proteins, however, how these up-regulated proteins, especially those enzymatically opposite kinases and phosphatases, act together to promote oncogenesis is unknown. Here, we reported that protein tyrosine phosphatase H1 (PTPH1) is a scaffold protein for receptor tyrosine kinase (HER2) to potentiate breast tumorigenesis. PTPH1 utilizes its PDZ domain to bind HER2, p38γ, PBK, and YAP1 and to increase HER2 nuclear translocation, stemness, and oncogenesis.

Proper differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) into adipocytes is crucial for maintaining skeletal homeostasis. However, the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain incompletely understood, posing a challenge for the treatment of age-related osteopenia and osteoporosis. Here, through comprehensive gene expression analysis during BMSC differentiation into adipocytes, we identified the forkhead transcription factor Foxk2 as a key regulator of this process.

Background: A thorough analysis of genome evolution is fundamental for biodiversity understanding. The iconic monotremes (platypus and echidna) feature extraordinary biology. However, they also exhibit rearrangements in several chromosomes, especially in the sex chromosome chain.

The enterobacterial common antigen (ECA) is conserved in Gram-negative bacteria of the order although its function is debated. ECA biogenesis depends on the Wzx/Wzy-dependent strategy whereby the newly synthesized lipid-linked repeat units, lipid III, are transferred across the inner membrane by the lipid III flippase WzxE. WzxE is part of the Wzx family and required in many glycan assembly systems, but an understanding of its molecular mechanism is hindered due to a lack of structural evidence.

Cancer is among the leading causes of mortality in developed countries due to limited available therapeutic modalities and high rate of morbidity. Although malignancies might show individual genetic landscapes, recurring aberrations in the neoplastic genome have been identified in the wide range of transformed cells. These include translocations of frequently affected loci of the human genetic material like the Ewing sarcoma breakpoint region 1 () of chromosome 22 that results in malignancies with mesodermal origin.
