Pan-cancer patterns of somatic copy-number alteration
"... Determining how somatic copy-number alterations (SCNAs) promote cancer is an important goal. We characterized SCNA patterns among 4934 cancers from The Cancer Genome Atlas Pan-Cancer dataset. Whole-genome doubling, observed in 37 % of cancers, was associated with higher rates of every other type of ..."

Original Article International Cancer Genome Consortium Data Portal—a one-stop shop for cancer genomics data
"... The International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) is a collaborative effort to characterize genomic abnormalities in 50 different cancer types. To make this data available, the ICGC has created the ICGC Data Portal. Powered by the BioMart software, the Data Portal allows each ICGC member institution ..."

Designing a High-Throughput Somatic Mutation Profiling Panel Specifically for Gynaecological Cancers
"... Somatic mutations play a major role in tumour initiation and progression. The mutation status of a tumour may predict prognosis and guide targeted therapies. The majority of techniques to study oncogenic mutations require high quality and quantity DNA or are analytically challenging. Mass-spectromet ..."

on the genes that are most relevant in gynaecological cancers. In this study, we report the design and validation of a novel, mass-spectrometry based panel specifically for gynaecological malignancies and present the frequencies of detected mutations. Using frequency data from the online Catalogue of Somatic
A graph theoretic approach to utilizing protein structure to identify non-random somatic mutations
, 2013
"... Background: It is well known that the development of cancer is caused by the accumulation of somatic mutations within the genome. For oncogenes specifically, current research suggests that there is a small set of “driver ” mutations that are primarily responsible for tumorigenesis. Further, due to s ..."

with the mutational data in the Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC), GraphPAC identifies new mutational clusters in well known oncogenes such as EGFR and KRAS. Further, by utilizing graph theory to account for the tertiary structure, GraphPAC identifies clusters in DPP4, NRP1 and other proteins
Somatic mutation of EZH2 (Y641) in Follicular and Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphomas of Germinal Center Origin
"... Follicular lymphoma (FL) and the GCB subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) derive from germinal center B-cells1. Targeted re-sequencing studies have revealed mutations in various genes in the NFkB pathway2,3 that contribute to the activated B-cell (ABC) DLBCL subtype but, thus far, few GC ..."

"... Over the past three decades, mortality from lung cancer has sharply and continuously increased in China, ascending to the first cause of death among all types of cancer. The ability to identify the actual sequence of gene mutations may help doctors determine which mutations lead to precancerous lesi ..."

In this study, we analyzed the latest lung cancer data in the COSMIC database, in order to find genomic “hotspots ” that are frequently mutated in human lung cancer genomes. The results revealed
Using common variants to indicate cancer genes
"... The catalogue of tumour-specific somatic mutations (SMs) is growing rapidly owing to the advent of next-generation sequenc-ing. Identifying those mutations responsible for the development and progression of the disease, so-called driver mutations, will increase our understanding of carcinogenesis an ..."

that the approach has merit. As additional data from cancer sequencing studies are made publicly available, this approach can be refined and applied to specific cancer subtypes. We named this preliminary version of our approach PRISMAD (poly-morphism rates indicate somatic mutations as drivers) and have made
Molecular classification of breast carcinomas by comparative genomic hybridization: a specific somatic genetic profile for BRCA1 tumors
- Cancer Res
, 2002
"... In 70 % of the families with a high frequency of early-onset breast and/or ovarian cancer, BRCA1 or BRCA2 germline mutations cannot be identified with the current screening regime. Therefore, we used data mining to identify a somatic genetic signature to differentiate BRCA1 mutation carriers from no ..."

Cancer Biology and Signal Transduction A Meta-analysis of Somatic Mutations from Next Generation Sequencing of 241 Melanomas: A Road Map for the Study of Genes with Potential Clinical Relevance
"... Next generation sequencing (NGS) has been used to characterize the overall genomic landscape of melanomas. Here, we systematically examined mutations from recently published melanoma NGS data involving 241 paired tumor-normal samples to identify potentially clinically relevant mutations. Mela-nomas ..."
