Abstract C131: Influences of ancestry-associated non-pathogenic germline variants as cancer vulnerabilities

The advent of precision oncology has transformed cancer care. Yet only approximately 25% of patients are eligible for targeted therapies, as current approaches exploit tumors harboring well-characterized somatic driver alterations. This limitation has restricted the broader clinical impact of precision medicine and c...

O-mannosylation and protein maturation check-points represent therapeutic opportunities in BRAF fusion protein oncogenesis

Fusions between protein-coding genes are common oncogenic drivers across cancers, typically pairing a proto-oncogene with partner that does not independently drive cancer. In all therapeutically actionable fusions, the proto-oncogene is the drug target, the contributions to oncogenicity of the fusion partner have large...

O-mannosylation and furin processing are critical maturation events for the KIAA1549 protein implicated in pediatric pilocytic astrocytomas

These intrinsic posttranslational modifications of the KIAA1549 ectodomain are critical determinants of the cellular trafficking that lead to activation of the BRAF oncogene, potentially involving a cascade of cleavage events in the Golgi that ultimately release a truncated but fully active BRAF kinase domain into the...

A compendium of next-generation patient-derived models for diverse cancers

A large-scale international programme—the Human Cancer Models Initiative—is presented, which involved the generation of a resource of 665 next-generation models from 2,780 donors with 25 cancer types and integrated tumour–model whole genome, exome, methylome and transcriptome analyses.
