Abstract
Here, we present two approaches to map DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and single-strand breaks (SSBs) in the genome of human cells. We named these methods respectively DSB-Seq and SSB-Seq. We tested the DSB and SSB-Seq in HCT1116, human colon cancer cells, and validated the results using the topoisomerase 2 (Top2)-poisoning agent etoposide (ETO). These methods are powerful tools for the direct detection of the physiological and pathological "breakome" of the DNA in human cells.Entities:
