MSIsensor: microsatellite instability detection using paired tumor-normal sequence data
25 Dec 2013
Abstract excerpt
MOTIVATION: Microsatellite instability (MSI) is an important indicator of larger genome instability and has been linked to many genetic diseases, including Lynch syndrome. MSI status is also an independent prognostic factor for favorable survival in multiple cancer types, such as colorectal and endometrial. It also informs the choice of chemotherapeutic agents. However, the current PCR-electrophoresis-based...
