Chromothripsis as an on-target consequence of CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing
2020-07-13
Abstract excerpt
Genome editing has promising therapeutic potential for genetic diseases and cancer (1, 2). However, the most practicable current approaches rely on the generation of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), which can give rise to a poorly characterized spectrum of structural chromosomal abnormalities. Here, we show that a catastrophic mutational process called chromothripsis is a previously unappreciated consequence of CR...
