Patterns of somatic mutation in human cancer genomes

TL;DR: More than 1,000 somatic mutations found in 274 megabases of DNA corresponding to the coding exons of 518 protein kinase genes in 210 diverse human cancers reveal the evolutionary diversity of cancers and implicates a larger repertoire of cancer genes than previously anticipated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lung cancer: intragenic ERBB2 kinase mutations in tumours.

TL;DR: The protein-kinase family is the most frequently mutated gene family found in human cancer and faulty kinase enzymes are being investigated as promising targets for the design of antitumour therapies as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutational signatures of ionizing radiation in second malignancies.

Sam Behjati, +90 more
TL;DR: Two signatures of somatic mutation characterize ionizing radiation exposure irrespective of tumour type, and a significant increase in balanced inversions in radiation-associated tumours is observed.
