Pan-Cancer Analysis of Mutation Hotspots in Protein Domains.
In cancer genomics, recurrence of mutations in independent tumor samples is a strong indicator of functional impact. However, rare functional mutations can escape detection by recurrence analysis owing to lack of statistical power. We enhance statistical power by extending the notion of recurrence of mutations from single genes to gene families that share homologous protein domains. Domain muta...
متن کاملMutationAligner: a resource of recurrent mutation hotspots in protein domains in cancer
The MutationAligner web resource, available at http://www.mutationaligner.org, enables discovery and exploration of somatic mutation hotspots identified in protein domains in currently (mid-2015) more than 5000 cancer patient samples across 22 different tumor types. Using multiple sequence alignments of protein domains in the human genome, we extend the principle of recurrence analysis by aggre...

اندیشمندان و صاحب نظران علوم اجتماعی بر این باورند که مرحله تازه ای در تاریخ جوامع بشری اغاز شده است. ویژگیهای این جامعه نو را می توان پدیده هایی از جمله اقتصاد اطلاعاتی جهانی ، هندسه متغیر شبکه ای، فرهنگ مجاز واقعی ، توسعه حیرت انگیز فناوری های دیجیتال، خدمات پیوسته و نیز فشردگی زمان و مکان برشمرد. از سوی دیگر قدرت به عنوان موضوع اصلی علم سیاست جایگاه مهمی در روابط انسانی دارد، قدرت و بازتولید...
15 صفحه اولSystematic characterization of pan‐cancer mutation clusters
Cancer genome sequencing has shown that driver genes can often be distinguished not only by the elevated mutation frequency but also by specific nucleotide positions that accumulate changes at a high rate. However, properties associated with a residue's potential to drive tumorigenesis when mutated have not yet been systematically investigated. Here, using a novel methodological approach, we id...
متن کاملMutation hotspots in cis-regulatory regions in cancer
In recent years, somatic mutations in cis-regulatory elements of cancer genomes have become a focus of much research. A landmark discovery occurred in 2013, in which recurrent somatic mutations were identified in the promoter of the key cancer-associated gene, TERT (reviewed in [1]). In the search for other highly recurrent cis-regulatory mutations which may serve as novel driver events, two pa...
