Abstract. DNA copy number is the number of replicates of a contiguous segment of DNA on the genome. Copy number alteration (CNA) is a genetic abnormality in which the number of the...
Chromosome translocations and gene fusions are frequent events in the human genome and have been found to cause diverse types of tumor. ChimerDB is a knowledgebase of fusion genes...
