Synonymous Somatic Variants in Human Cancer Are Not Infamous: A Plea for Full Disclosure in Databases and Publications
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Human Mutation"
DOI: 10.1002/humu.23163
Abstract: Single‐nucleotide variants (SNVs) are the most frequent genetic changes found in human cancer. Most driver alterations are missense and nonsense variants localized in the coding region of cancer genes. Unbiased cancer genome sequencing shows that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41588-018-0283-9
Abstract: Recent efforts to design personalized cancer immunotherapies use predicted neoantigens, but most neoantigen prediction strategies do not consider proximal (nearby) variants that alter the peptide sequence and may influence neoantigen binding. We evaluated somatic variants… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cen.14639
Abstract: OBJECTIVES Phaeochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGL) are rare neuroendocrine tumours with malignant potential and a hereditary basis in almost 40% of patients. Germline genetic testing has transformed the management of PPGL enabling stratification of surveillance approaches,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jvim.16476
Abstract: Abstract Background Myelofibrosis often lacks an identifiable cause in dogs. In humans, most primary myelofibrosis cases develop secondary to driver mutations in JAK2, CALR, or MPL. Objectives To determine the prevalence of variants in JAK2,… read more here.
