    • To further dissect the genetic architecture of colorectal cancer (CRC), we performed whole-genome sequencing of 1,439 cases and 720 controls, imputed discovered sequence variants and Haplotype Reference Consortium panel variants into genome-wide association study data, and tested for association in 34,869 cases and 29,051 controls. Findings were followed up in an additional 23,262 cases and 38,296 controls. We discovered a strongly protective 0.3% frequency variant signal at CHD1. In a combined meta-analysis of 125,478 individuals, we identified 40 new independent signals at P < 5 x 10(-8), bringing the number of known independent signals for CRC to similar to 100. New signals implicate lower-frequency variants, Kruppel-like factors, Hedgehog signaling, Hippo-YAP signaling, long noncoding RNAs and somatic drivers, and support a role for immune function. Heritability analyses suggest that CRC risk is highly polygenic, and larger, more comprehensive studies enabling rare variant analysis will improve understanding of biology underlying this risk and influence personalized screening strategies and drug development.

  • The absence of the catalytic domains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA polymerase ϵ strongly reduces DNA replication fidelity
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Nucleic Acids Research. - : Oxford University Press. - 0305-1048 .- 1362-4962. ; 47:8, s. 3986-3995
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The four B-family DNA polymerases α, δ, ϵ and ζ cooperate to accurately replicate the eukaryotic nuclear genome. Here, we report that a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain encoding the pol2-16 mutation that lacks Pol ϵ's polymerase and exonuclease activities has increased dNTP concentrations and an increased mutation rate at the CAN1 locus compared to wild type yeast. About half of this mutagenesis disappears upon deleting the REV3 gene encoding the catalytic subunit of Pol ζ. The remaining, still strong, mutator phenotype is synergistically elevated in an msh6Δ strain and has a mutation spectrum characteristic of mistakes made by Pol δ. The results support a model wherein slow-moving replication forks caused by the lack of Pol ϵ's catalytic domains result in greater involvement of mutagenic DNA synthesis by Pol ζ as well as diminished proofreading by Pol δ during replication.

  • Dinucleotide Degradation by REXO2 Maintains Promoter Specificity in Mammalian Mitochondria
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Molecular Cell. - : Elsevier BV. - 1097-2765 .- 1097-4164. ; 76:5
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Oligoribonucleases are conserved enzymes that degrade short RNA molecules of up to 5 nt in length and are assumed to constitute the final stage of RNA turnover. Here we demonstrate that REXO2 is a specialized dinucleotide-degrading enzyme that shows no preference between RNA and DNA dinucleotide substrates. A heart- and skeletal-muscle-specific knockout mouse displays elevated dinucleotide levels and alterations in gene expression patterns indicative of aberrant dinucleotide-primed transcription initiation. We find that dinucleotides act as potent stimulators of mitochondrial transcription initiation in vitro. Our data demonstrate that increased levels of dinucleotides can be used to initiate transcription, leading to an increase in transcription levels from both mitochondrial promoters and other, nonspecific sequence elements in mitochondrial DNA. Efficient RNA turnover by REXO2 is thus required to maintain promoter specificity and proper regulation of transcription in mammalian mitochondria.
