Exome-sequencing of tamoxifen-resistant and -sensitive breast cancer cell lines.
We performed exome-sequencing on 7 tamoxifen-resistant (MCF-7 Tam1, T-47D Tam1, T-47D Tam2, ZR-75-1 Tam1, ZR-75-1 Tam2, BT474 Tam1 and BT-474 Tam2) and their isogenic parental (MCF-7, T-47D, ZR-75-1 and BT-474) breast cancer cell lines. The tamoxifen-resistant cell lines were generated from the parentel cell lines by continuous administration of 1 µM 4-OH-tamoxifen for eight to twelve months. Exome- sequencing was performed to define the mutational landscape of the resistant clones. We identified resistance-specific point mutations and copy number variations.
