Exploring the biology of circular DNA

The Regenberg Lab at the University of Copenhagen carries multidisciplinary projects orbiting around extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA). We use yeast, mice and human cancers as model systems to understand basic principles of circular DNA biology and develop transferable technologies.

We are pioneers in methods for isolation and detection of circular DNA as well as bioinformatics tools to untangle sequencing data. Our aim is to shed light into some of the great questions of evolutionary biology such as speciation and cancer.
