Structural variation (SV), where rearrangements delete, duplicate, invert or translocate DNA segments, is a major source of somatic cell variation. It can arise in rapid bursts, mediate genetic heterogeneity, and dysregulate cancer-related pathways. The challenge to systematically discover SVs in single cells remains unsolved, with copy-neutral and complex variants typically escaping detection. We developed single cell tri-channel-processing (scTRIP), a computational framework that jointly integrates read depth, template strand and haplotype phase to comprehensively discover SVs in single cells. We surveyed SV landscapes of 565 single cell genomes, including transformed epithelial cells and patient-derived leukemic samples, and discovered abundant SV classes including inversions, translocations and complex DNA rearrangements mediating oncogenic dysregulation. We dissected the 'molecular karyotype' of the leukemic samples and examined their clonal structure. Different from prior methods, scTRIP also enabled direct detection and discrimination of SV mutational processes in individual somatic cells, including breakage-fusion-bridge cycles. scTRIP will facilitate studies of clonal evolution, genetic mosaicism and somatic SV formation, and could improve disease classification for precision medicine.
