Abstract
Tandem duplications (TD) are among the most frequent type of structural variant (SV) in the cancer genome. They are characterized by a single breakpoint junction that defines the boundaries and the size of the duplicated segment. Cancer-associated TDs often increase oncogene copy number or disrupt tumor suppressor gene function, and thus have important roles in tumor evolution. TDs in cancer genomes fall into three classes, defined by the size of duplications, and are associated with distinct genetic drivers. In this review, we survey key features of cancer-related TDs and consider possible underlying mechanisms in relation to stressed DNA replication and the 3D organization of the S phase genome.
期刊介绍：
DNA Repair provides a forum for the comprehensive coverage of DNA repair and cellular responses to DNA damage. The journal publishes original observations on genetic, cellular, biochemical, structural and molecular aspects of DNA repair, mutagenesis, cell cycle regulation, apoptosis and other biological responses in cells exposed to genomic insult, as well as their relationship to human disease.
DNA Repair publishes full-length research articles, brief reports on research, and reviews. The journal welcomes articles describing databases, methods and new technologies supporting research on DNA repair and responses to DNA damage. Letters to the Editor, hot topics and classics in DNA repair, historical reflections, book reviews and meeting reports also will be considered for publication.
