DNA sequencing has revolutionized medicine over recent decades. However, analysis of large structural variation and repetitive DNA, a hallmark human genomes, been limited by short-read technology, with read lengths 100-300 bp. Long-read (LRS) permits routine fragments tens to hundreds kilobase pairs in size, using both real-time synthesis nanopore-based direct electronic sequencing. LRS haplotypic phasing genomes enabled the discovery characterization rare pathogenic variants repeat expansions. It also recently assembly complete, gapless genome that includes previously intractable regions, such as highly centromeres homologous acrocentric short arms. With addition protocols for targeted enrichment, epigenetic modification detection, long-range chromatin profiling, promises launch new era understanding genetic diversity mutations populations.

Blocking cancer genomic instability may prevent tumor diversification and escape from therapies. We show that, after MAPK inhibitor (MAPKi) therapy in patients mice bearing patient-derived xenografts (PDX), acquired resistant genomes of metastatic cutaneous melanoma specifically amplify resistance-driver, nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ), homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes via complex rearrangements (CGR) extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNA). Almost all sensitive acquired-resistant harbor pervasive chromothriptic regions with disproportionately high mutational burdens significant overlaps ecDNA CGR spans. Recurrently, somatic mutations within amplicons enrich for HRR signatures, particularly tumors. Regardless sensitivity or resistance, breakpoint-junctional sequence analysis suggests NHEJ as critical to double-stranded DNA break underlying formation. In human cell lines PDXs, targeting by a DNA-PKCS prevents/delays MAPKi resistance reducing the size ecDNAs CGRs early on combination treatment. Thus, causes prevents resistance. Acquired often results heterogeneous, redundant survival mechanisms, which challenge strategies aimed at reversing Acquired-resistant melanomas recurrently evolve resistance-driving resistance-specific CGRs, thereby nominating chromothripsis-ecDNA-CGR biogenesis resistance-preventive target. Specifically, DNA-PKCS/NHEJ suppressing ecDNA/CGR MAPKi-treated melanomas. This article is highlighted Issue feature, p. 799.

Abstract Genomic instability is a hallmark of cancer and major driving force tumorigenesis. A key manifestation genomic the formation extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) — acentric, circular DNA molecules ranging from 50 kb to 5 Mb in size, distinct chromosomes. Ontological studies have revealed that ecDNA serves as carrier oncogenes, immunoregulatory genes, enhancers, capable elevated transcription its cargo genes heterogeneity, leading rapid tumor evolution therapy resistance. Although was documented over half century ago, past decade has witnessed surge breakthrough discoveries about biological functions. Here, we systematically review modern biology uncovered last ten years, focusing on how during this pioneering stage illuminated our understanding ecDNA-driven transcription, progression. Furthermore, discuss ongoing efforts target novel approach therapy. This burgeoning field entering new phase, poised reshape knowledge therapeutic strategies.

In cancer, complex genome rearrangements and other structural alterations, including the amplification of oncogenes on circular extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) elements, drive formation progression tumors. ecDNA is a particularly challenging alteration. By untethering from chromosomal constraints, it elevates oncogene copy number, drives intratumoral genetic heterogeneity, promotes rapid tumor evolution, results in treatment resistance. The profound changes shape nuclear architecture generated by alter transcriptional landscape tumors catalyzing new types regulatory interactions that do not occur chromosomes. current suite tools for interrogating cancer genomes well suited deciphering sequence but has limited ability to resolve structure dynamics generates.
