The Genome Analysis Toolkit: A MapReduce framework for analyzing next-generation DNA sequencing data

TL;DR: The GATK programming framework enables developers and analysts to quickly and easily write efficient and robust NGS tools, many of which have already been incorporated into large-scale sequencing projects like the 1000 Genomes Project and The Cancer Genome Atlas.

Integrated genomic analyses of ovarian carcinoma

Debra A. Bell, +285 more
- 30 Jun 2011 - 
TL;DR: It is reported that high-grade serous ovarian cancer is characterized by TP53 mutations in almost all tumours (96%); low prevalence but statistically recurrent somatic mutations in nine further genes including NF1, BRCA1,BRCA2, RB1 and CDK12; 113 significant focal DNA copy number aberrations; and promoter methylation events involving 168 genes.

Integrated genomic analyses of ovarian carcinoma

Daphne W. Bell, +261 more
TL;DR: The Cancer Genome Atlas project has analyzed messenger RNA expression, microRNA expression, promoter methylation and DNA copy number in 489 high-grade serous ovarian adenocarcinomas and the DNA sequences of exons from coding genes in 316 of these tumours as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutational heterogeneity in cancer and the search for new cancer-associated genes

Michael S. Lawrence, +96 more
- 11 Jul 2013 - 
TL;DR: A fundamental problem with cancer genome studies is described: as the sample size increases, the list of putatively significant genes produced by current analytical methods burgeons into the hundreds and the list includes many implausible genes, suggesting extensive false-positive findings that overshadow true driver events.
