SARS-CoV-2 continuously optimizes its codon usage to adapt to human lung environment
J Appl Genet. 2023 Sep 23. doi: 10.1007/s13353-023-00790-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTViruses need to utilize the resources from host cells to reproduce themselves. RNA translation rate, which is largely determined by codon usage, is the rate-limiting step across the life cycle of viruses. Adapting to the codon usage of hosts would help virus better proliferate. We retrieved the time-course mutation profile of millions of world-wide SARS-CoV-2 sequences. For synonymous mutations, we defined whether a mutation elevate or reduce the relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU). We found that if a synonymous mutation in SARS-Co...

Methylation of hypoxia-inducible factor 3 subunit alpha contributes to poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma
J Appl Genet. 2023 Sep 14. doi: 10.1007/s13353-023-00784-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHypoxia-inducible factor 3 subunit alpha (HIF3A) has been implicated in various types of cancers, while its precise role in the lung adenocarcinoma remains unclear. Our study aimed to investigate the roles of HIF3A in lung adenocarcinoma and its regulation by DNA methylation. We utilized bioinformatic tools, including UALCAN and KMPlot, to analyze the relationship between HIF3A expression, DNA methylation, and patient survival rate in lung adenocarcinoma. We also used siRNA-mediated knockdown of HIF3A and DNA-methyltransferase 1 (DNMT...

Modern therapies of nonsmall cell lung cancer
J Appl Genet. 2023 Sep 12. doi: 10.1007/s13353-023-00786-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLung cancer (LC), particularly nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is one of the most prevalent types of neoplasia worldwide, regardless of gender, with the highest mortality rates in oncology. Over the years, treatment for NSCLC has evolved from conventional surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy to more tailored and minimally invasive approaches. The use of personalised therapies has increased the expected efficacy of treatment while simultaneously reducing the frequency of severe adverse effects (AEs). In this review, we discuss es...

Genetic and phenotypic parameters for sexual precocity and parasite resistance traits in Nellore cattle
J Appl Genet. 2023 Sep 8. doi: 10.1007/s13353-023-00781-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIndicator traits of sexual precocity are widely used as selection criteria for the genetic improvement of beef cattle; however, the impact of selection for these traits on resistance to endoparasites and ectoparasites is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to estimate the genetic and phenotypic parameters for indicator traits of sexual precocity and parasite resistance in Nellore cattle. The sexual precocity traits evaluated were probability of first calving (PFC) and scrotal circumference at 12 and 18 months of age (SC12 and SC18). T...
