May the best wound WIHN: the hallmarks of wound-induced hair neogenesis.

Current opinion in genetics & development

Ankawa R, Fuchs Y.
PMID: 34861514
Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2021 Nov 30;72:53-60. doi: 10.1016/j.gde.2021.10.006. Epub 2021 Nov 30.

The hair follicle is a unique mini organ that undergoes continuous cycles of replenishment. While hair follicle formation was long thought to occur strictly during embryogenesis, it is now becoming increasingly clear that hair follicles can regenerate from the...

How strand exchange protein function benefits from ATP hydrolysis.

Current opinion in genetics & development

Reitz D, Chan YL, Bishop DK.
PMID: 34343922
Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2021 Dec;71:120-128. doi: 10.1016/j.gde.2021.06.016. Epub 2021 Jul 31.

Members of the RecA family of strand exchange proteins carry out the central reaction in homologous recombination. These proteins are DNA-dependent ATPases, although their ATPase activity is not required for the key functions of homology search and strand exchange....

An extending ATR-CHK1 circuitry: the replication stress response and beyond.

Current opinion in genetics & development

Simoneau A, Zou L.
PMID: 34329853
Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2021 Jul 27;71:92-98. doi: 10.1016/j.gde.2021.07.003. Epub 2021 Jul 27.

The maintenance of genomic integrity relies on the coordination of a wide range of cellular processes and efficient repair of DNA damage. Since its discovery over two decades ago, the ATR kinase has been recognized as the master regulator...

DNA end resection during homologous recombination.

Current opinion in genetics & development

Gnügge R, Symington LS.
PMID: 34329854
Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2021 Jul 27;71:99-105. doi: 10.1016/j.gde.2021.07.004. Epub 2021 Jul 27.

Exposure to environmental mutagens but also cell-endogenous processes can create DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in a cell's genome. DSBs need to be repaired accurately and timely to ensure genomic integrity and cell survival. One major DSB repair mechanism, called...

Copy number variation and neuropsychiatric illness.

Current opinion in genetics & development

Rees E, Kirov G.
PMID: 33752146
Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2021 Jun;68:57-63. doi: 10.1016/j.gde.2021.02.014. Epub 2021 Mar 19.

Copy number variants (CNVs) at specific loci have been identified as important risk factors for several neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability (ID) and depression. These CNVs are individually rare (

Copy number variants in neurexin genes: phenotypes and mechanisms.

Current opinion in genetics & development

Fuccillo MV, Pak C.
PMID: 33756113
Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2021 Jun;68:64-70. doi: 10.1016/j.gde.2021.02.010. Epub 2021 Mar 21.

Neurexins are central to trans-synaptic cell adhesion and signaling during synapse specification and maintenance. The past two decades of human genetics research have identified structural variations in the neurexin gene family, in particular NRXN1 copy number variants (CNVs), implicated...

The WRN helicase: resolving a new target in microsatellite unstable cancers.

Current opinion in genetics & development

van Wietmarschen N, Nathan WJ, Nussenzweig A.
PMID: 34284257
Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2021 Jul 17;71:34-38. doi: 10.1016/j.gde.2021.06.014. Epub 2021 Jul 17.

One of the goals of precision medicine is to uncover selective vulnerabilities in various cancers. A notable success has been the development of PARP inhibitors for the treatment of breast and ovarian cancers with mutations in BRCA genes. Only...

Seasonal plasticity: how do butterfly wing pattern traits evolve environmental responsiveness?.

Current opinion in genetics & development

van der Burg KR, Reed RD.
PMID: 33740694
Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2021 Aug;69:82-87. doi: 10.1016/j.gde.2021.02.009. Epub 2021 Mar 17.

Phenotypic plasticity in response to environmental cues is common in butterflies, and is a major driver of butterfly wing pattern diversity. The endocrine signal ecdysone has been revealed as a major modulator of plasticity in butterflies. External cues such...
