Abstract excerpt
The ability to sequence nucleic acids at an unprecedented pace and decreased costs using massive parallel sequencing (MPS) strongly affects biomedical research. Here we applied MPS for the detection of rare, clinically relevant mutations in a chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) patient. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors revolutionized CML therapy but in some patients the disease progresses due to resistance-conferring...
