Open AccessLow-cost and clinically applicable copy number profiling using repeat DNA
Somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) are an important class of genomic alteration in cancer. They are frequently observed in cancer samples, with studies showing that, on average, SCNAs affect 34% of a canc...

Open AccessRearrangement processes and structural variations show evidence of selection in oesophageal adenocarcinomas
Oesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC) provides an ideal case study to characterize large-scale rearrangements. Using whole genome short-read sequencing of 383 cases, for which 214 had matched whole transcriptomes, ...

Whole-genome sequencing provides new insights into the clonal architecture of Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma
Rebecca Fitzgerald and colleagues report whole-genome sequence analyses of 23 paired samples of Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma. Their analyses of the clonal architecture of these lesions sho...

Open AccessMobile element insertions are frequent in oesophageal adenocarcinomas and can mislead paired-end sequencing analysis
Mobile elements are active in the human genome, both in the germline and cancers, where they can mutate driver genes.

Ordering of mutations in preinvasive disease stages of esophageal carcinogenesis
Rebecca Fitzgerald and colleagues used genome sequence analyses to study the progression from premalignant Barrett's esophagus to esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and found that the majority of recurrently muta...
