Coordinated inheritance of extrachromosomal DNA species in human cancer cells
2023-07-19
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The chromosomal theory of inheritance has dominated human genetics, including cancer genetics. Genes on the same chromosome segregate together while genes on different chromosomes assort independently, providing a fundamental tenet of Mendelian inheritance. Extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) is a frequent event in cancer that drives oncogene amplification, dysregulated gene expression and intratumoral...
