Subclonal phylogenetic structures in cancer revealed by ultra-deep sequencing

TL;DR: The potential for ultra-deep resequencing to recapitulate the dynamics of clonal evolution in cancer cell populations is demonstrated and an algorithm to differentiate genuine haplotypes of somatic hypermutations from such artifacts is developed.

TL;DR: Genome-wide DNA sequencing was used to decrypt the phylogeny of multiple samples from distinct areas of cancer and morphologically normal tissue taken from the prostates of three men, demonstrating the existence of ongoing abnormal mutational processes, consistent with field effects, underlying carcinogenesis.
