UC San Diego and Ludwig Cancer Research scientists describe how a phenomenon known as “chromothripsis” breaks up chromosomes, which then reassemble in ways that ultimately promote cancer cell growth.
Researchers find that the phenomenon of chromothripsis results in rearranged genomes and extra-chromosomal DNA that helps mutated cells not only evade treatment, but become more aggressive
