Template switching mechanism drives the tandem amplification of chromosome 20q11.21 in human pluripotent stem cells
2020-07-12
Abstract excerpt
Copy number variants (CNVs) are genomic rearrangements implicated in numerous congenital and acquired diseases, including cancer. In human pluripotent stem cells (PSC), the appearance of culture-acquired CNVs prompted concerns for their use in regenerative medicine applications. A particularly common problem in PSC is the occurrence of CNVs in the q11.21 region of chromosome 20. However, the exact mechanisms of or...
