Single-Chromosome Sequencing in Human Cancers: Advancing Precision Oncology
Introduction: Why Focus on Single-Chromosome Sequencing? In cancer genetics, the ability to map alterations at the level of a single chromosome offers a focused lens on genomic instability, chromosomal rearrangements, and gene dosage effects. Single-chromosome sequencing (SCS) enables researchers to isolate and analyze one chromosome at a time, reducing complexity from the entire genome and…
