HCC1143.dSKY.svg

D.SKY plot show the somatic copy number alterations (sCNAs) in cancer cell-line. For this breast cancer cell-line HCC1143, the D.SKY clearly showed the loss of chr8p and gain of chr8q, a pattern recurrently occurs to breast cancer genome. While the D.SKY was originally generated to compare with the SKY plot at (old-www.path.cam.ac.uk/~pawefish/BreastCellLineDescriptions/HCC1143.html), D.SKY shows in greater details about Loss of heterozygosity and double deletions, corresponding regions marked in red and green shading on the cytobands respectively.
