Abstract excerpt
MOTIVATION: Whole genome DNA-sequencing (WGS) of paired tumor and normal samples has enabled the identification of somatic DNA changes in an unprecedented detail. Large-scale identification of somatic structural variations (SVs) for a specific cancer type will deepen our understanding of driver mechanisms in cancer progression. However, the limited number of WGS samples, insufficient read coverage, and the...
