MuSE: A Novel Approach to Mutation Calling with Sample-Specific Error Modeling.

Abstract excerpt

Accurate detection of somatic mutations in genetically heterogeneous tumor cell populations using next-generation sequencing remains challenging. We have developed MuSE, Mutation calling using a Markov Substitution model for Evolution, a novel approach for modeling the evolution of the allelic composition of tumor and normal tissue at each reference base. It adopts a sample-specific error model to depict...
