Profiling oncogenic extra-chromosomal DNA in cancer

Cancer cells frequently amplify oncogenes on DNA molecules outside of chromosomes — extrachromosomal DNA. A technique adapted for isolation of extrachromosomal DNA, termed CRISPR-CATCH, enables analyses of its genetic and epigenetic compositions, which provides insights into its origin, structural d...

Zusammenfassung:Cancer cells frequently amplify oncogenes on DNA molecules outside of chromosomes — extrachromosomal DNA. A technique adapted for isolation of extrachromosomal DNA, termed CRISPR-CATCH, enables analyses of its genetic and epigenetic compositions, which provides insights into its origin, structural diversity and mechanism of oncogene activation in cancer.
