A multi-omic investigation of gene dysregulation in a complex chromothripsis-like translocation event using Oxford Nanopore sequencing
)
Using telomere-to-telomere (T2T) assembly with ultra-long reads, ligation-based sequencing, and Pore-C—all from Oxford Nanopore Technologies—alongside cDNA sequencing and direct detection of 5mC/5hmC modifications, a complex chromothripsis-like translocation between chromosomes 2 and 16 was identified and fully resolved.
