Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: miRNAs are considered important players in oncogenesis, serving either as oncomiRs or suppressormiRs. Although the accumulation of somatic alterations is an intrinsic aspect of cancer development and many important cancer-driving mutations have been identified in protein-coding genes, the area of functional somatic mutations in miRNA genes is heavily understudied. METHODS: Here, based on the analysis...
