Enhancer hijacking determines extrachromosomal circular MYCN amplicon architecture in neuroblastoma

MYCN amplification is common in neuroblastomas. Here the authors analyse the MYCN amplicon structure and its epigenetic regulation by integrating short- and longread genomic and epigenomic data and find two classes of MYCN amplicons in neuroblastomas, one driven by local enhancers and the other by h...
