Break-induced replication drives large-scale genomic amplifications in cancer cells
2024-08-28
Abstract excerpt
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are highly toxic lesions that underly the efficacy of ionizing radiation (IR) and a large number of cytotoxic chemotherapies 1–3 . Yet, abnormal repair of DSBs is associated with genomic instability and may contribute to cancer heterogeneity and tumour evolution. Here, we show that DSBs induced by IR, by DSB-inducing chemotherapeutics, or by the expression of a rare-cutting restric...
