    Hui Li
    Department of Pathology, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut 06520, USA
    Cell Cycle 8:218-22. 2009
    ..Furthermore, it may be possible that other means for abnormal production of chimeric gene products, such as hyperactive transsplicing of RNA, may be another mechanism underlying the neoplastic properties of tumor cells...
  2. ncbi A neoplastic gene fusion mimics trans-splicing of RNAs in normal human cells
    Hui Li
    Department of Pathology, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06520, USA
    Science 321:1357-61. 2008
    ..These observations suggest that certain gene fusions may be pro-neoplastic owing to constitutive expression of chimeric gene products normally generated by trans-splicing of RNAs in developing tissues...

    Hui Li
    Department of Pathology, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06520, USA
    Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 104:20001-6. 2007
    ..Furthermore, these results indicate the likely functional importance of allelic exclusion of genes disrupted by chromosomal translocations, as seen in a variety of other cancers...

    Department of Genetics, School of Medicine, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520, USA
    Hum Genet 131:683-96. 2012
    ..Our data suggest that the haplotype restricted to Europe is the strongest marker for blue eyes globally and add further inferential evidence that the derived allele of rs1800414 is an East Asian skin pigmentation allele...

    ..H7 is estimated to have expanded recently, around 2,800 years ago, and ancient DNA samples from North China confirm its presence about that time. The dating of the H7 expansion may help understand the selective force on the ADH1B gene...
