What is a Project?
The objective of the central project is providing access to state-of-the-art sequencing technology and methods as well as novel next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based approaches to all partners and individual projects within the consortium. Advances in NGS and NGS-based approaches such as whole-genome sequencing (WGS) have tremendously improved the detection of structural variants/copy number variations (CNVs) and single somatic variants and mutations as measures of genome integrity. With ...
Genomic instability is a shared pathogenic mechanism of selected inherited, monogenic disorders caused by mutations in genes encoding proteins with important functions for genomic maintenance. Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have allowed the identification of novel genes associated with genomic instability syndromes. However, our understanding of alterations of genomic maintenance in mitotic cells and mechanisms of disease-associated chromosome instability is still ...
