Hypertension linked to PDE3A activation   pp562 - 563
Miles Houslay
doi:10.1038/ng.3316
A new study identifies PDE3A mutations as the cause of brachydactyly type E with hypertension. These mutations alter PDE3A activity by uncovering cryptic sites for phosphorylation by PKA and PKC, leading to enzyme hyperactivation that abnormally lowers cAMP levels.

Transposon mutagenesis disentangles osteosarcoma genetic drivers   pp564 - 565
Kevin B Jones
doi:10.1038/ng.3317
The genetic drivers of osteosarcoma have been difficult to identify because of the genomic complexity consistently encountered in cancer cells at diagnosis. A new study uses Sleeping Beauty transposon mutagenesis to drive osteosarcomagenesis in the mouse and identify likely drivers of the disease in humans.

Massive lineage replacements and cryptic outbreaks of Salmonella Typhi in eastern and southern Africa   pp565 - 567
Thierry Wirth
doi:10.1038/ng.3318
A new large-scale study reports the whole-genome sequences of nearly 2,000 Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) strains collected from 63 countries. A recent and dominant multidrug-resistant (MDR) lineage originating from South Asia, which is supplanting a bulk of ancestral drug-sensitive strains, is identified; the success of this lineage is likely driven by plasmid acquisitions and the chromosomal integration of resistance-conferring genes.

Fine mapping in the MHC region accounts for 18% additional genetic risk for celiac disease   pp577 - 578
Javier Gutierrez-Achury, Alexandra Zhernakova, Sara L Pulit, Gosia Trynka, Karen A Hunt, Jihane Romanos, Soumya Raychaudhuri, David A van Heel, Cisca Wijmenga & Paul I W de Bakker

Mapping long-range promoter contacts in human cells with high-resolution capture Hi-C   pp598 - 606
Borbala Mifsud, Filipe Tavares-Cadete, Alice N Young, Robert Sugar, Stefan Schoenfelder, Lauren Ferreira, Steven W Wingett, Simon Andrews, William Grey, Philip A Ewels, Bram Herman, Scott Happe, Andy Higgs, Emily LeProust, George A Follows, Peter Fraser, Nicholas M Luscombe & Cameron S Osborne
doi:10.1038/ng.3286
Nicholas Luscombe, Cameron Osborne and colleagues report the use of Capture Hi-C (CHi-C) to detect the long-range interactions of almost 22,000 promoters in 2 human cell types. They found that transcriptionally inactive genes interact with previously uncharacterized elements that may act as long-range silencers.

NALP3 inflammasome upregulation and CASP1 cleavage of the glucocorticoid receptor cause glucocorticoid resistance in leukemia cells   pp607 - 614
Steven W Paugh, Erik J Bonten, Daniel Savic, Laura B Ramsey, William E Thierfelder, Prajwal Gurung, R K Subbarao Malireddi, Marcelo Actis, Anand Mayasundari, Jaeki Min, David R Coss, Lucas T Laudermilk, John C Panetta, J Robert McCorkle, Yiping Fan, Kristine R Crews, Gabriele Stocco, Mark R Wilkinson, Antonio M Ferreira, Cheng Cheng, Wenjian Yang, Seth E Karol, Christian A Fernandez, Barthelemy Diouf, Colton Smith, J Kevin Hicks, Alessandra Zanut, Audrey Giordanengo, Daniel Crona, Joy J Bianchi, Linda Holmfeldt, Charles G Mullighan, Monique L den Boer, Rob Pieters, Sima Jeha, Thomas L Dunwell, Farida Latif, Deepa Bhojwani, William L Carroll, Ching-Hon Pui, Richard M Myers, R Kiplin Guy, Thirumala-Devi Kanneganti, Mary V Relling & William E Evans
doi:10.1038/ng.3283
William Evans and colleagues find that the proinflammatory genes CASP1 and NLRP3 are expressed at higher levels in primary acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells that are resistant than in those that are sensitive to glucocorticoid treatment. They find that CASP1 mediates glucocorticoid resistance through cleavage of the glucocorticoid receptor.

Branden Moriarity, David Largaespada and colleagues report a Sleeping Beauty forward genetic screen in mice that identifies candidate genes and pathways for osteosarcoma tumor development and progression. They identify sites specifically associated with tumorigenesis and metastasis and find that several candidate oncogenes are involved in axon guidance.

They further show that the mutations result in gain of enzymatic function, leading to increased vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and vessel wall hyperplasia.

doi:10.1038/ng.3279
Anthony Shum, Jordan Orange, James Lupski and colleagues show that mutations in the coatamer subunit gene COPA cause an autoimmune syndrome characterized by inflammatory arthritis and interstitial lung disease. They further show that the mutations disrupt ER-Golgi transport, leading to ER stress and altered T cell function.

Mutations in KCNH1 and ATP6V1B2 cause Zimmermann-Laband syndrome   pp661 - 667
Fanny Kortüm, Viviana Caputo, Christiane K Bauer, Lorenzo Stella, Andrea Ciolfi, Malik Alawi, Gianfranco Bocchinfuso, Elisabetta Flex, Stefano Paolacci, Maria Lisa Dentici, Paola Grammatico, Georg Christoph Korenke, Vincenzo Leuzzi, David Mowat, Lal D V Nair, Thi Tuyet Mai Nguyen, Patrick Thierry, Susan M White, Bruno Dallapiccola, Antonio Pizzuti, Philippe M Campeau, Marco Tartaglia & Kerstin Kutsche
doi:10.1038/ng.3282
Kerstin Kutsche, Marco Tartaglia and colleagues show that missense mutations in KCNH1 and ATP6V1B2 cause Zimmermann-Laband syndrome, a disorder characterized by facial dysmorphism, intellectual disability, digit anomalies and hypertrichosis. Functional studies indicate that the KCNH1 mutations lead to altered channel activity.

Roland Kuiper and colleagues identify a homozygous germline nonsense mutation in the base-excision repair gene NTHL1 in three families with recessive inheritance of adenomatous polyposis.

The genomic landscape of high hyperdiploid childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia   pp672 - 676
Kajsa Paulsson, Henrik Lilljebjörn, Andrea Biloglav, Linda Olsson, Marianne Rissler, Anders Castor, Gisela Barbany, Linda Fogelstrand, Ann Nordgren, Helene Sjögren, Thoas Fioretos & Bertil Johansson
doi:10.1038/ng.3301
Kajsa Paulsson and colleagues performed whole-genome and/or whole-exome sequencing of 51 cases of high hyperdiploid pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia, which is characterized by a massive nonrandom gain of chromosomes. They found that high hyperdiploidy arose early during leukemogenesis and was the main leukemogenic event.

DNA replication fidelity in Mycobacterium tuberculosis is mediated by an ancestral prokaryotic proofreader   pp677 - 681
Jeremy M Rock, Ulla F Lang, Michael R Chase, Christopher B Ford, Elias R Gerrick, Richa Gawande, Mireia Coscolla, Sebastien Gagneux, Sarah M Fortune & Meindert H Lamers
doi:10.1038/ng.3269
Sarah Fortune, Meindert Lamers and colleagues show that, unlike Escherichia coli, Mycobacterium tuberculosis uses an exonuclease domain in polymerase DnaE1 to proofread DNA replication. Importantly, this proofreading mechanism renders mycobacteria sensitive to nucleoside analogs, a class of small molecules used to treat viral infections and cancer.
