Thats it, now lunch break with a chance to ask questions to all speakers. Entschuldigung fürs Timeline-spammen #EMBOmtg
Next step. 20000- 30000 whole genomes of cancer patients. Lots to expect, fine grained image on cancer causes and progression. #EMBOmtg
This is cool stuff. By looking at genome rearrangements one can derive a phylogenetic tree of metastasis. #EMBOmtg
Metastasis have gone through single cell bottleneck, therefore "heredity" from primary tumor easily traceable #EMBOmtg
How and where do cancers metastasize? Sequence the mestastases, check for rearangements, see how similar they are to primary tumor #EMBOmtg
What the underlying mechanisms for these specific profiles are is unknown. #EMBOmtg
What type of mutations occur? Typical signature profiles for different cancer patients. (i,e. C to T in some, C to A in others) #EMBOmtg
How many overall mutations occur in cancer patients. High variability. From only a few to up to over 7000 (seven hundred!!) #EMBOmtg
Bottom line: High genetic variability among different breast cancer types. different number and different types of mutations. #EMBOmtg
About half of all cases only need 1 or two driver mutations. those are enrichted in point mut. CNV in cancers with more mutations #EMBOmtg
How many different mutations are necessary to cause cancer? Tranditional view: 5-7 Stratton shows higher variability. #EMBOmtg
So which genes are actually mutatet in these 69 breast cancers? At least 34 different genes, p53 most common. #EMBOmtg
What type of mutations are most common in cancer genes? By far truncations. Missense occurs only in functionally important loci. #EMBOmtg
Sequencing of 69 different breast cancers, see which mutations and what type of mutations occur, identify new cancer genes. #EMBOmtg
The landscape of cancer driver mutations. Mutations in which genes lead to the transformation of normal cells to cancer cells? #EMBOmtg
At least 416 genes are known to be causually implicated in human cancer (one of them being p53, for example) most are dominant #EMBOmtg
Mike Stratton is the head of the Sanger Center, for those of you who do not know him.
I'll switch to English for the next tweets on Mike Strattons Talk. They are streamer on the #EMBOmtg website http://t.co/6gvnchg
Mike Stratton jetzt über Krebszellgenome. Was unterscheidet Krebszellen von normalen Zellen? Was sind die "Driver Mutations" #EMBOmtg
Beim #embomtg in Wien. Eben Chaperone und Prione von Susan Lindquist, Jetzt Session über Genomevolution u.a. mit Michael Stratton
