Abstrakt: Chromothripsis is a frequent form of genome instability, whereby a presumably single catastrophic event generates extensive genomic rearrangements of one or multiple chromosome(s). However, little is known about the heterogeneity of chromothripsis across different clones from the same tumour, as well as changes in response to treatment. Here we analyse single-cell genomic and transcriptomic alterations linked with chromothripsis in human p53-deficient medulloblastoma and neural stem cells (n = 9). We reconstruct the order of somatic events, identify early alterations likely linked to chromothripsis and depict the contribution of chromothripsis to malignancy. We characterise subclonal variation of chromothripsis and its effects on extrachromosomal circular DNA, cancer drivers and putatively druggable targets. Furthermore, we highlight the causative role and the fitness consequences of specific rearrangements in neural progenitors. Chromothripsis (CT) is a type of genome instability which is prevalent in medulloblastoma with germline TP53 mutations (Li-Fraumeni syndrome, LFS). Here the authors combine single-cell genomic and transcriptomic analyses to reveal the clonal heterogeneity and functional consequences of CT in LFS medulloblastoma. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
