WRN deficiency generates oncogenic rearrangements at TA-rich tandem repeats

Meng Wang, Hui Pan, Anastasia Samarkina…·Boris C. Bastian

This study shows WRN deficiency causes oncogenic rearrangements at TA-rich tandem repeats by destabilizing them, leading to chromosomal breaks and activation of TERT in melanoma.

Targeted DNA Sequencing of Cutaneous Melanoma Identifies Prognostic and Predictive Alterations

Alexandra M. Haugh, Robert C. Osorio, Rony A. Francois…·Harish N. Vasudevan

This study identifies prognostic and predictive alterations in cutaneous melanoma using targeted DNA sequencing and clinical follow-up, finding NRAS mutations correlate with worse survival and elevated TMB with better progression-free survival on combination ICI.
