EcDNA hubs drive cooperative intermolecular oncogene expression
2020-11-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) are prevalent in human cancers and mediate high oncogene expression through elevated copy number and altered gene regulation 1 . Gene expression typically involves distal enhancer DNA elements that contact and activate genes on the same chromosome 2,3 . Here we show that ecDNA hubs, comprised of ~10-100 ecDNAs clustered in the nucleus of interphase cells, drive i...
