Finding new Chimeric RNAs in RNA-seq data, a test study in Acute Myeloid Leukemia patient cells

ABSTRACT: In this strudy, we seek out new chimeric RNA in RNA-seq data from acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patient cells as new biomarkers to improve diagnosis and prognosis in cancer. Total RNA were extracted from bone marrow or peripheral blood mononuclear cells in three AML patients. polyA+ cDNAs were sequenced to generate stranded paired-end reads. RNA-seq analyses were performed using Crac and CracTools software. In particular using these tools, we classified chimeric RNA in four classes, finding new chimeric RNAs. By analysis a larger cohort by qPCR, we were able to define new chimeric RNA as new biomarkers in AML patients.
