Abstract excerpt
To date, studies on papillary renal-cell carcinoma (pRCC) have largely focused on coding alterations in traditional drivers, particularly the tyrosine-kinase, Met. However, for a significant fraction of tumors, researchers have been unable to determine a clear molecular etiology. To address this, we perform the first whole-genome analysis of pRCC. Elaborating on previous results on MET, we find a germline SNP...
