Modeling the evolution space of breakage fusion bridge cycles with a stochastic folding process
Breakage–fusion–bridge cycles in cancer arise when a broken segment of DNA is duplicated and an end from each copy joined together. This structure then ‘unfolds’ into a new piece of palindromic DNA. This is one mechanism responsible for the localised amplicons observed in cancer genome data. Here we...
