Abstract

Zhang et al. analyzed over 1,400 cancers by high- or low-pass whole-genome sequencing, focusing on patterns of structural variation. They saw a widespread impact of somatic structural variants on gene expression patterns, independent of copy-number alterations, involving key oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes.
