    Fusions false positives - using Breakdancer

    Dear all,

    I'm a phD student with no bioinformatic background.
    It's my first post here and hope someone can help me

    I've done whole genome sequencing on some cell lines (no match normal) and used Breakdancer to look for potential fusions/translocations.
    I'm using IGV to visually inspect the big list I received with the possible translocations. Though I'm coming across so many different patterns that I'm not sure if can say that they are real or not.

    Does anyone have more information/examples on how to exclude false positive by visual inspection?

    I've contacted IGV help, and this forum was recommended by them.
    Hope somenone can give me some help with this!

    Thanks
    Diana

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

    New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
    by SEQadmin2


    Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

    We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
