Chromosome translocations can be detected by cytogenetic analysis, but it is hard to characterize the breakpoints at the sequence level. Chromosome sorting by flow cytometry produces flow karyotypes that enable the isolation of abnormal chromosomes and the generation of chromosome-specific DNA. In this study, a derivative chromosome t(9; 14) and its homologous normal chromosomes 9 and 14 from the Ishikawa 3-H-12 cell line were sorted to collect homologue-specific samples. Chromosome sequencing identified the breakpoint junction in the der(9) at 9p24.3 and 14q13.1 and uncovered the formation of a fusion gene, WASH1-NPAS3. Amplicon sequencing targeted for neighbouring genes at the fusion breakpoint revealed that the variant frequencies correlate with the allelic copy number. Sequencing of sorted chromosomes permits the assignment of allelic variants and can lead to the characterization of abnormal chromosomes. We show that allele-specific chromosome sequencing of homologues is a robust technique for distinguishing alleles and this provides an efficient approach for the comprehensive analysis of genomic changes.
