Pyjacker identifies enhancer hijacking events in acute myeloid leukemia including <i>MNX1</i> activation via deletion 7q
2024-09-13
Abstract excerpt
Acute myeloid leukemia with complex karyotype (ckAML) is characterized by high genomic complexity, including frequent TP53 mutations and chromothripsis. We hypothesized that the numerous genomic rearrangements could reposition active enhancers near proto-oncogenes, leading to their aberrant expression. We developed pyjacker, a computational tool for the detection of enhancer hijacking events, and applied it to a...
