Abstract excerpt
The advent of Next-Generation sequencing technologies, which significantly increases the throughput and reduces the cost of large-scale sequencing efforts, provides an unprecedented opportunity for discovery of novel gene mutations in human cancers. However, it remains a challenge to apply Next-Generation technologies to DNA extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded cancer specimens. We describe here the...
