Defective DNA damage repair leads to frequent catastrophic genomic events in murine and human tumors

Chromothripsis and chromoanasynthesis lead to locally clustered rearrangements affecting one or a few chromosomes, but their impact on cancer development and progression is unclear. Here the authors analyse the role of DNA repair factors in brain tumors by whole-genome sequencing of tumors from mous...

Description
Summary:Chromothripsis and chromoanasynthesis lead to locally clustered rearrangements affecting one or a few chromosomes, but their impact on cancer development and progression is unclear. Here the authors analyse the role of DNA repair factors in brain tumors by whole-genome sequencing of tumors from mouse models of medulloblastoma or high grade gliomas.
