Common germline polymorphisms and somatic cancer mutations exhibit non-random positional overlap across the human genome

Thais Silva Tavares, Daniela Souza Lima Barbosa, Renan Pedra de Souza…·Francisco Pereira Lobo

The paper identifies non-random positional overlap between common germline polymorphisms and somatic cancer mutations, suggesting intrinsically vulnerable genomic loci.

A Trypanosoma cruzi Zinc Finger protein that controls expression of epimastigote specific genes and affects metacyclogenesis

Thais Silva Tavares, Fernanda L. B. Mügge, Viviane Grazielle-Silva…·Santuza Maria Ribeiro Teixeira

The paper identifies a T. cruzi zinc finger protein, TcZC3H12, that regulates epimastigote gene expression and negatively affects metacyclogenesis.
