Sumario: | Abstract Single-cell sequencing provides a new level of granularity in studying the heterogeneous nature of cancer cells. For some cancers, this heterogeneity is the result of copy number changes of genes within the cellular genomes. The ability to accurately determine such copy number changes is critical in tracing and understanding tumorigenesis. Current single-cell genome sequencing methodologies infer copy numbers based on statistical approaches followed by rounding decimal numbers to integer values. Such methodologies are sample dependent, have varying calling sensitivities which heavily depend on the sample’s ploidy and are sensitive to noise in sequencing data. In this paper we have demonstrated the concept of integer-counting by using a novel bioinformatic algorithm built on our library construction chemistry in order to detect the discrete nature of the genome. |
