The first glimpse of <i>Homo sapiens</i> hereditary fusion genes

2022-05-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Family-inherited fusion genes have been known to be associated with human disease for decades. However, only a small number of them have been discovered so far. In this report, monozygotic (MZ) twins are used as a genetic model to investigate hereditary fusion genes (HFG). We have analyzed RNA-Seq from 37 MZ twins and discovered 1,180 HFGs, the maximum of which is 608 per haploid genome. Eight H...
