Today, many standard clinical methods such as cytogenetic and PCR based techniques are used which have limitation regarding detection resolution. Chromosome conformation capture is a method for detecting gene proximity and chromosomal rearrangements. Materials and Methods: In this study, SKW3 cell line was used for detecting t(8;14)(q24;q11) using a  3C-based technique. SKW3 cell line was used for 3C library preparation. For Inverse PCR, two regions were selected in upstream and downstream of the viewpoint locus on chromosome 8-MYC gene based on EcoRI restriction sites. The captured sequence with intra-chromosomal interaction between chr8-c-MYC and chr14-TRD was selected for the translocation PCR primer design. Results: The DNA fragment captured in 3C PCR showed a specific TRD sequence translocated downstream of the MYC gene. Translocation PCR demonstrated the existence of (8; 14) (q24; q11) MYC /TRD in both library and genomic DNA. Conclusion: This result demonstrated 3C- based method could be used as a useful low-cost easy operating technique in chromosomal rearrangements detection. In this study, the integration of   whole genome library monitoring and PCR method was used as a high- through put method in chromosomal breakpoints detection. https://ijhoscr.tums.ac.ir/index.php/ijhoscr/article/view/1135 https://ijhoscr.tums.ac.ir/index.php/ijhoscr/article/download/1135/836
