Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The LNCaP cell line is widely used as a model for prostate cancer. However, information on protein-changing mutations, genetic heterogeneity and genetic (in)stability is largely lacking for these cells. METHODS: Next-generation sequencing of the LNCaP exome revealed many single nucleotide variants (SNVs). To help identify the mutations that are most likely drivers of the oncogenic process, we...
