This detailed volume explores the frontiers of this new era in cancer cytogenetics and cytogenomics, focusing on establishing a karyotype as an information-based genomic framework, as well as presenting technological platforms for collecting and analyzing data at the genome level. It begins with several conceptual chapters that introduce ideas such as the Genome Architecture Theory, forcefully emphasizing the importance of cytogenomics in the post-genomics era. The book then proceeds with protocols covering both basic and advanced cytogenetic and cytogenomic methods, as well as diverse experiments beyond traditional cytogenetic platforms, and bioinformatics techniques and resources. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and up-to-date, Cancer Cytogenetics and Cytogenomics: Methods and Protocols serves as an ideal guide to the unique power of this area of research in spatial biology and system-integrated genomics.
