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

Somatic Mutations of the Protein Kinase Gene Family in Human Lung Cancer

TL;DR: The results suggest that several mutated protein kinases may be contributing to lung cancer development, but that mutations in each one are infrequent.
Journal ArticleDOI

A screen of the complete protein kinase gene family identifies diverse patterns of somatic mutations in human breast cancer

TL;DR: In many tumors, the coding sequence of 518 protein kinases was examined, and a few had numerous somatic mutations with distinctive patterns indicative of either a mutator phenotype or a past exposure.
