Induced dicentric chromosome formation promotes genomic rearrangements and tumorigenesis

Chromosomal rearrangements can radically alter gene products and their function, driving tumor formation or progression. However, the molecular origins and evolution of such rearrangements are varied and poorly understood, with cancer cells often containing multiple, complex rearrangements. One mech...
