Initial genome sequencing and analysis of multiple myeloma

TL;DR: The massively parallel sequencing of 38 tumour genomes and their comparison to matched normal DNAs indicates that cancer genome sequencing of large collections of samples will yield new insights into cancer not anticipated by existing knowledge.

Initial genome sequencing and analysis of multiple myeloma

TL;DR: In this paper, a massively parallel sequencing of 38 tumour genomes and their comparison to matched normal DNAs was reported, and several new and unexpected oncogenic mechanisms were suggested by the pattern of somatic mutation across the data set.
