Genome-wide characterization of extrachromosomal circular DNA in breast cancer and its potential role in carcinogenesis and cancer progression
16 Oct 2024
Abstract excerpt
Extrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs) are defined as distinct genomic entities of circular and mobile DNA molecules, but their molecular functions in and impact on breast cancer (BC) are rarely known. This study used Circle-seq to analyze eccDNAs from 19 BC tissues and 17 adjacent normal tissues. We found that eccDNAs are present on all chromosomes and enriched in seven eccDNA hotspot genes (HSGs) associated...
