eccDNA Sequencing for Biomarker Discovery and Cancer Research
|
| Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) is a class of double-stranded circular DNA molecules present outside of regular chromosomal DNA, functionally regulating diverse molecular and physiological processes (Fig 1). According to the lengths, eccDNA can be classified into two main categories : micro-eccDNA (<10 kb) and mega-eccDNA (10 kb)[1]. |
micro-eccDNAs:
Superior biomarker potential, owing to their many desired characteristics, e.g. long, circular, and strong resistant to exonuclease digestion[2].
mega-eccDNAs:
Major breakthroughs and research hotspots in recent cancer research, owing to their harboring oncogenes, drug resistance genes or mobile super-enhancers to provide an evolutionary advantage for cancers[2-6].
Arraystar has developed eccDNA sequencing with maximal eccDNA enrichment. The service not only dramatically increases eccDNA reads, but also provides a broad coverage, which simultaneously profiles both of micro-eccDNA and mega-eccDNA. Meanwhile, the data analysis part of the service provides rich annotation, genome browser track visualization, publication-ready graphics for biologists and clinicians.
