BreakTrans
BreakTrans is a computer program that maps predicted gene fusions to genomic structural rearrangements so as to validate both types of events and provide them mechanism/functional interpretation. It requires input from at least one gene fusion prediction program (such as Tophat-fusion, deFuse and BreakFusion) and at least one genomic breakpoint detection program (such as BreakDancer and CREST ).
Download
The BreakTrans package includes two parts, executable files and annotation data files for each specific cancer. To run it, users need to download the executable files and the annotation database.
