  • Help with Cosmic

    Hi I am new to the forum and need help. I am trying to search for the breakpoints of common cancer translocations in Cosmic, for example the common PAX8-PPARG or RET-PTC fusions.

    I have downloaded a number of their databases (Structural, Fusion, Mutant, etc) and have failed to find these common gene rerrangements listed in any of them.

    I have then tried searching their web interface for something as simple as "PAX8" and these widely reported translocations do not show up in their results. The same goes for RET-PTC (a rearrangement with numerous genes such as RET-CCDC6 & RET-PRKAR1A).

    Yet, when I look at Cosmic news, I can see beautiful web graphic of other gene translocations that do no interest me in the least. See link below. I simply want to find the genomic location (estimated breakpoint) of a selected group of mutant genes such as those I listed above. Can you help me figure out how to search for this information?

    Thank you so much!

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
