Figure 1From: State of art fusion-finder algorithms are suitable to detect transcription-induced chimeras in normal tissues?Events involved in chimeras formation. Chimeras, not due to a genomic pathological-associated rearrangement, may originate from two separate events: intergenic splicing and transgenic splicing. An intergenic splicing event combines exons from two adjacent genes of the same chromosome, while a transgenic splicing event combines exons from two gene locate on different chromosomes.Back to article page
