In this study, we describe a systematic analysis of pseudogene 'transcription' from an RNA-Seq resource of 293 samples, from 13 cancer and normal tissue types. We observed a highly prevalent, genome-wide expression of pseudogenes that could be categorized as universally expressed or linea...

Paired-end transcriptome sequencing was performed on a panel of breast cancer cell lines and tissues and a set of benign cell line and tissue controls. Analyses of the paired end sequences were performed and chimeric transcripts derived from gene rearrangement events were identified. Sequencing w...

Half of prostate cancers harbor gene fusions between TMPRSS2 and members of the ETS transcription factor family. To date little is known about the presence of non-ETS fusion events in prostate cancer. We employed next-generation transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq) in order to e...
