Assessing the Concordance of Genomic Alterations between Circulating-Free DNA and Tumour Tissue in Cancer Patients.
Somatic alterations to the genomes of solid tumours, which in some cases represent actionable drivers, provide diagnostic and prognostic insight into these complex diseases. Spatial and longitudinal tracking of somatic genomic...

Funerals against death
While anthropological studies in non-Western societies show how funerals protect the community from the threat of death, sociological studies of British funerals have so far focused on meanings for the private family. The...

A century of bias in genetics and evolution
Laurence Hurst

Mendel proposed that the heritable material is particulate and that transmission of alleles is unbiased. An assumption of unbiased transmission was necessary to show how variation can be preserved in the absence of selection...
Purifying selection on exonic splice enhancers in intronless genes
Exonic splice enhancers (ESEs) are short nucleotide motifs, enriched near exon ends, that enhance the recognition of the splice site and thus promote splicing. Are intronless genes under selection to avoid these motifs so as not...

Why selection might be stronger when populations are small
The nearly-neutral theory predicts that small effective population size provides the conditions for weakened selection. This is postulated to explain why our genome is more “bloated” than that of, for example, yeast, ours having...
Positive charge loading at protein termini is due to membrane protein topology, not a translational ramp
In the great majority of genomes, the use of positive charge increases, on average, approaching protein N-termini. Such charged residues slow ribosomes by interacting with the negatively charged exit tunnel. This has been...
What Do Carbon Labels Signal? The Role of Biospheric Values on Perceptions of “Green” Food Consumers
Costly signaling theory suggests that individuals might be more likely to consume sustainable food products if doing so signals an underlying prosocial value to others. However, it is unclear whether prosocial signals are...

Both maintenance and avoidance of RNA-binding protein interactions constrain coding region evolution
While the principal force directing coding sequence (CDS) evolution is selection on protein function, to ensure correct gene expression CDSs must also maintain interactions with RNA-binding proteins (RBPs). Understanding how our...
Error prevention and mitigation as forces in the evolution of genes and genomes
Why are short introns rarely a multiple of three nucleotides long? Why do essential genes cluster? Why are genes in operons often lined up in the order in which they are needed in the encoded pathway? In this Opinion article, we...
A methodology for the assessment of local-scale changes in marine environmental benefits and its application
Local-scale planning decisions are required by the existing Environmental Impact Assessment process to take account of the implications of a development on a range of environmental and social factors, and could therefore be...
Intronic AT skew is a defendable proxy for germline transcription but does not predict crossing-over or protein evolution rates in Drosophila melanogaster
Recent evidence suggests that germline transcription may affect both protein evolutionary rates, possibly mediated by repair processes, and recombination rates, possibly mediated by chromatin and epigenetic modification. Here...
Transgene-design
Transgene-design is a web application to help design transgenes for use in mammalian studies. It is predicated on the recent discovery that human intronless transgenes and native retrogenes can be expressed very effectively...

GroEL dependency affects codon usage-support for a critical role of misfolding in gene evolution
It has recently been suggested that the use of optimal codons limits mistranslation-induced protein misfolding, yet evidence for this remains largely circumstantial. In contrast, molecular chaperones have long been recognized to...

Determinants of the usage of splice-associated<i> cis</i>-motifs predict the distribution of human pathogenic SNPs
Where in genes do pathogenic mutations tend to occur and does this provide clues as to the possible underlying mechanisms by which single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) cause disease? As splice-disrupting mutations tend to...
