Comprehensive molecular characterization of gastric adenocarcinoma

Adam J. Bass, +257 more
- 11 Sep 2014 - 
TL;DR: A comprehensive molecular evaluation of 295 primary gastric adenocarcinomas as part of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) project is described and a molecular classification dividing gastric cancer into four subtypes is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic and epigenomic landscapes of adult de novo acute myeloid leukemia

Timothy J. Ley, +138 more
TL;DR: It is found that a complex interplay of genetic events contributes to AML pathogenesis in individual patients and the databases from this study are widely available to serve as a foundation for further investigations of AMl pathogenesis, classification, and risk stratification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive genomic characterization of squamous cell lung cancers

Peter S. Hammerman, +345 more
- 27 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that the tumour type is characterized by complex genomic alterations, with a mean of 360 exonic mutations, 165 genomic rearrangements, and 323 segments of copy number alteration per tumour.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genome sequence of Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Valerie Wood, +136 more
- 21 Feb 2002 - 
TL;DR: The genome of fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe), which contains the smallest number of protein-coding genes yet recorded for a eukaryote, is sequenced and highly conserved genes important for eukARYotic cell organization including those required for the cytoskeleton, compartmentation, cell-cycle control, proteolysis, protein phosphorylation and RNA splicing are identified.
