Focal Deletions of a Promoter Tether Activate the <i>IRX3</i> Oncogene in T Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
2024-02-08
Abstract excerpt
Oncogenes can be activated in cis through multiple mechanisms including enhancer hijacking events and noncoding mutations that create enhancers or promoters de novo . These paradigms have helped parse somatic variation of noncoding cancer genomes, thereby providing a rationale to identify noncanonical mechanisms of gene activation. Here we describe a novel mechanism of oncogene activation whereby focal copy numb...
