Chromosomal Translocations in NK-Cell Lymphomas Originate from Inter-Chromosomal Contacts of Active rDNA Clusters Possessing Hot Spots of DSBs

Endogenous hot spots of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are tightly linked with transcription patterns and cancer. There are nine hot spots of DSBs (denoted Pleiades) in human rDNA units that are located exclusively inside the intergenic spacer (IGS). Profiles of Pleiades coincide with the profiles...
