The elusive evidence for chromothripsis
The chromothripsis hypothesis suggests an extraordinary one-step catastrophic genomic event allowing a chromosome to ‘shatter into many pieces’ and reassemble into a functioning chromosome. Recent efforts have aimed to detect chromothripsis by looking for a genomic signature, characterized by a larg...
