Chromoplexy: A Pathway to Genomic Complexity and Cancer Development [PDF]
Chromoplexy is a phenomenon of complex genome rearrangement, occurring during a single cell event and characterized by the formation of chain rearrangements affecting multiple chromosomes. Unlike other genomic rearrangements such as chromothripsis, which involves a single chromosome, chromoplexy affects several chromosomes at once, creating patterns of

Interstitial deletion 4p15.32p16.1 and complex chromoplexy in a female proband with severe neurodevelopmental delay, growth failure and dysmorphism [PDF]
Complex chromosomal rearrangements involve the restructuring of genetic material within a single chromosome or across multiple chromosomes. These events can cause serious human disease by disrupting coding DNA and gene regulatory elements via deletions ...

Chromoplexy Is a Frequent Early Clonal Event in EWSR1 -Rearranged Round Cell Sarcomas That Can Be Detected Using Clinically Validated Targeted Sequencing Panels [PDF]
Abstract Chromoplexy is a phenomenon defined by large-scale chromosomal chained rearrangements. A previous study observed chromoplectic events in a subset of Ewing sarcomas (ES), which was linked to an increased relapse rate.

Genome assembly resources of genitourinary cancers for chromosomal aberration at the single nucleotide level [PDF]
Traditionally, the evolutionary perspective of cancer has been understood as gradual alterations in passenger/driver genes that lead to branching phylogeny.

Chromoplexy: A New Category of Complex Rearrangements in the Cancer Genome [PDF]
Widespread structural alterations of cancer genomes are increasingly observed in a broad spectrum of tumors. In a recent issue of Cell, Baca and colleagues describe large chains of rearrangements that coordinately affect multiple chromosomes in prostate cancer.

Chromoplexy: a new paradigm in genome remodeling and evolution [PDF]
Early massively-parallel sequencing studies have revealed the mutational landscape of protein-coding genes in prostate cancer. However, most of these studies have not explored the extensive influence of genomic rearrangement in prostate cancer.

Introduction Some mutational processes can generate multiple mutations in a single event, leading to substantial reconfiguration of the genome. Three such processes have been described: (i) chromothripsis, in which tens to hundreds of dsDNA breaks occur simultaneously, clustered on one or a few chromosomes, with near-random stitching together of ...

Ewing Sarcoma Gene Fusions Can Be Generated via Chromoplexy [PDF]
Abstract EWSR1–ETS fusions can arise by a sudden burst of complex, loop-like rearrangements termed chromoplexy.

Beyond Darwin: reactive heredity, burst-drift dynamics and eco‑evolutionary control of cancer [PDF]
Darwinian clonal evolution provides a necessary framework for understanding tumour progression, yet emerging evidence shows that some cancers depart from a strictly gradualist tempo through episodic "macroevolutionary" leaps.
