摘要: Chromothripsis and kataegis are frequently observed in cancer can arise from telomere crisis, a period of genome instability during tumorigenesis when depletion the reserve generates unstable dicentric chromosomes1–5. Here we report on mechanism underlying chromothripsis using an vitro crisis model. We show that cytoplasmic exonuclease TREX1, which promotes resolution chromosomes4, plays prominent role chromothriptic fragmentation. In absence alterations induced by primarily involve Breakage-Fusion-Bridge cycles simple rearrangements rather than chromothripsis. Furthermore, at breakpoints is consequence cytosine deamination APOBEC3B. addition, APOBEC3B increased frequency fragmentation, possibly due to strand breakage after deamination. These data reveal combination nucleolytic processing TREX1 editing
