Assessing telomeric DNA content in pediatric cancers using whole-genome sequencing data

BACKGROUND: Telomeres are the protective arrays of tandem TTAGGG sequence and associated proteins at the termini of chromosomes. Telomeres shorten at each cell division due to the end-replication problem and are maintained above a critical threshold in malignant cancer cells to prevent cellular sene...
