The proteomic study of non-model organisms, such as many crop plants, is challenging due to the lack of comprehensive genome information. Changing environmental conditions require the study and selection of adapted cultivars. Mutations, inherent to cultivars, hamper protein identification and thus considerably complicate the qualitative and quantitative comparison in large-scale systems biology approaches. With this workflow, cultivar-specific mutations are detected from high-throughput comparative MS analyses, by extracting sequence polymorphisms with de novo sequencing. Stringent criteria are suggested to filter for confidential mutations. Subsequently, these polymorphisms complement the initially used database, which is ready to use with any preferred database search algorithm. In our example, we thereby identified 26 specific mutations in two cultivars of Pisum sativum and achieved an increased number (17 %) of peptide spectrum matches.

Interpretation and classification of FBN1 variants associated with Marfan syndrome: consensus recommendations from the Clinical Genome Resource's FBN1 variant curation expert panel.

European Reference Network for Rare Multisystemic Vascular Disease (VASCERN), HTAD and MSA Rare Disease, Working Group, Paris, France.

Background: In 2015, the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) developed standardized variant curation guidelines for Mendelian disorders. Although these guidelines have been widely adopted, they are not gene- or disease-specific. To mitigate classification discrepancies, the Clinical Genome Resource FBN1 variant curation expert panel (VCEP) was established in 2018 to develop adaptations to the ACMG/AMP criteria for FBN1 in association with Marfan syndrome.

Chromosome-level genome assembly of Triplophysa bombifrons using PacBio HiFi sequencing and Hi-C technologies.

Sci Data

College of Life Science and Technology/Tarim Research Center of Rare Fishes, Tarim University, CN-0997, Alar 843300, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Xinjiang, China.

Triplophysa bombifrons, a species of bony fish localized in China, has largely been understudied genetically, with limited data available beyond its mitochondrial genome. This study introduces a chromosome-level genome assembly for T. bombifrons, achieved through the integration of PacBio long-read sequencing and Hi-C chromatin interaction mapping.

NovoRank: Refinement for Peptide Sequencing Based on Spectral Clustering and Deep Learning.

J Proteome Res

December 2024

Department of Artificial Intelligence, Hanyang University, Seoul 04763, Republic of Korea.

peptide sequencing is a valuable technique in mass-spectrometry-based proteomics, as it deduces peptide sequences directly from tandem mass spectra without relying on sequence databases. This database-independent method, however, relies solely on imperfect scoring functions that often lead to erroneous peptide identifications. To boost correct identification, we present NovoRank, a postprocessing tool that employs spectral clustering and machine learning to assign more plausible peptide sequences to spectra.

RICTOR is a key component of the mTORC2 signaling complex which is involved in the regulation of cell growth, proliferation and survival. RICTOR is highly expressed in neurons and is necessary for brain development. Here, we report eight unrelated patients presenting with intellectual disability and/or development delay and carrying variants in the RICTOR gene.

Chromosomal instability (CIN) is common in solid tumours and fuels evolutionary adaptation and poor prognosis by increasing intratumour heterogeneity. Systematic characterization of driver events in the TRACERx non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cohort identified that genetic alterations in six genes, including FAT1, result in homologous recombination (HR) repair deficiencies and CIN. Using orthogonal genetic and experimental approaches, we demonstrate that FAT1 alterations are positively selected before genome doubling and associated with HR deficiency.
