Inference of transcription factor binding from cell-free DNA enables tumor subtype prediction and early detection
11 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
Deregulation of transcription factors (TFs) is an important driver of tumorigenesis, but non-invasive assays for assessing transcription factor activity are lacking. Here we develop and validate a minimally invasive method for assessing TF activity based on cell-free DNA sequencing and nucleosome footprint analysis. We analyze whole genome sequencing data for >1,000 cell-free DNA samples from cancer patients and...
