  1. Percent of fusion reads was calculated as using fusion (chimeric) transcript reads divided by total reads (fusion read count + wild-type (non-fusion) 5′-gene read count + wild-type (non-fusion) 3′-gene read count) (see Methods). RSEM estimated normalized read counts were used. Metrics shown in table are calculated using read counts of pro-neoplastic transcripts in breast cancer samples
