Transient multifocal genomic crisis creating chromothriptic and non-chromothriptic rearrangements in prezygotic testicular germ cells

Abstract Background The co-occurrence of multiple de novo copy number variations (CNVs) is a rare phenomenon in the human genome. Recently, an “organismal CNV mutator phenotype” has been reported to result in transient genomic instability introducing multiple de novo CNVs in primary oocytes and earl...
