Somatic Mutations in Human Cancer: Insights from Resequencing the Protein Kinase Gene Family

TL;DR: A systematic screen of all annotated protein kinases in the human genome for mutations in a series of cancers including breast, non-small-cell lung, and testicular cancer shows a wide diversity in mutation prevalence within and between tumor types and identifies a mutator phenotype in human breast previously undescribed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Screening for ESR mutations in breast and ovarian cancer patients

TL;DR: In this article, leukocyte DNA from 143 patients with familial clustering of breast and/or ovarian cancer and tumour DNA from 96 breast carcinomas were screened for base mutations in the estrogen receptor gene (ESR).
Journal ArticleDOI

Lessons learnt from large-scale exon re-sequencing of the X chromosome

TL;DR: A large-scale exon re-sequencing project using Sanger sequencing technology to analyse approximately 1 Mb of coding sequence of the X chromosome in probands from >200 families with various forms of intellectual disability is completed.
