Hacienda catedralicia y promoción artística en la Catedral de Mallorca (1573-1604)

La relación directa entre las finanzas, la economía y la hacienda catedralicia con la promoción artística de la Catedral de Palma, en tiempos del obispo valenciano Juan Vic y Manrique de Lara (1573-1604), se refleja en fuentes documentales diversas conservadas en el Archivo Capitular de Mallorca (ACM). Mensa capitular, libros de sacristía, clavaria, cofradías, cabreo de limosnas, libros de aniversarios y distribuciones de plomos; nos han permitido exhumar nuevas noticias relacionadas con la decencia y decoro en el templo, especialmente, pintores, plateros, escultores y maestros de obras, estos últimos dirigidos por el canónigo obrero u obrero mayor. Iniciamos nuestro recorrido a través del testimonio escrito del médico al servicio del obispo, Juan Binimelis en la obra Historia General del Reino de Mallorca (1593-1595), que nos servirá de punto de partida para constatar las sinergias de los equipos de gestión diocesana y catedralicia al servicio del arte.

Retrospective evaluation of whole exome and genome mutation calls in 746 cancer samples

Funder: NCI U24CA211006Abstract: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) curated consensus somatic mutation calls using whole exome sequencing (WES) and whole genome sequencing (WGS), respectively. Here, as part of the ICGC/TCGA Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) Consortium, which aggregated whole genome sequencing data from 2,658 cancers across 38 tumour types, we compare WES and WGS side-by-side from 746 TCGA samples, finding that ~80% of mutations overlap in covered exonic regions. We estimate that low variant allele fraction (VAF < 15%) and clonal heterogeneity contribute up to 68% of private WGS mutations and 71% of private WES mutations. We observe that ~30% of private WGS mutations trace to mutations identified by a single variant caller in WES consensus efforts. WGS captures both ~50% more variation in exonic regions and un-observed mutations in loci with variable GC-content. Together, our analysis highlights technological divergences between two reproducible somatic variant detection efforts

Sex differences in oncogenic mutational processes

Efforts to link these clinical differences to specific molecular features have focused on somatic mutations within the coding regions of the genome. Here we report a pan-cancer analysis of sex differences in whole genomes of 1983 tumours of 28 subtypes as part of the ICGC/TCGA Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) Consortium. We both confirm the results of exome studies, and also uncover previously undescribed sex differences. These include sex-biases in coding and non-coding cancer drivers, mutation prevalence and strikingly, in mutational signatures related to underlying mutational processes. These results underline the pervasiveness of molecular sex differences and strengthen the call for increased consideration of sex in molecular cancer research
