Extrachromosomal circular DNA are functional, heritable units that expand genomic plasticity and confer resilience [PDF]
Although far less well-known and understood than chromosomal DNA, extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) are a pervasive and dynamic component of eukaryotic genomes.

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles. [PDF]
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Sperm-Mediated Transgenerational Inheritance
Spermatozoa of virtually all species can spontaneously take up exogenous DNA or RNA molecules and internalize them into nuclei. In this article I review evidence for a key role of a reverse transcriptase (RT) activity, encoded by LINE-1 retrotransposons,

Discordant inheritance of chromosomal and extrachromosomal DNA elements contributes to dynamic disease evolution in glioblastoma [PDF]
ABSTRACT To understand how genomic heterogeneity of glioblastoma (GBM) contributes to the poor response to therapy, which is characteristic of this disease, we performed DNA and RNA sequencing on GBM tumor samples and the neurospheres and orthotopic xenograft models derived from them.

Coordinated inheritance of extrachromosomal DNAs in cancer cells [PDF]
AbstractThe chromosomal theory of inheritance dictates that genes on the same chromosome segregate together while genes on different chromosomes assort independently1. Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) are common in cancer and drive oncogene amplification, dysregulated gene expression and intratumoural heterogeneity through random segregation during cell ...

Extrachromosomal Circular DNA as a Cancer Biomarker: From Diagnosis to Treatment. [PDF]
Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) is an emerging class of genetic material that exists outside the chromosomal genome. These circular DNA molecules are gaining increasing attention as important biomarkers in cancer research due to their roles in gene amplification, genetic heterogeneity, and drug resistance.
