In this review, we synthesize emerging evidence from animal genomics, highlighting the functional and evolutionary consequences of translocations, chromosomal fusions, and fissions. We emphasize the ...

Chromosomal translocations resulting from misjoining DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) on non-homologous chromosomes serve as both molecular signatures and rearrangements that cause cancer, particularly ...

In an agricultural advancement, scientists have deciphered the genetic underpinnings of watermelon chromosomal translocations, the key to cultivating fruits with fewer seeds. The global demand for ...

Translocations are chromosomal “cut and paste” errors that drive many lymphomas, a type of blood cancer and the sixth most common form of cancer overall. This includes mantle cell lymphoma, a rare but ...
