Abstract excerpt
Sequencing of melanomas has identified hundreds of recurrent mutations in both coding and non-coding DNA. These include a number of well-characterized oncogenic driver mutations, such as coding mutations in the BRAF and NRAS oncogenes, and non-coding mutations in the promoter of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT). However, the molecular etiology and significance of most of these mutations is unknown. Here,...
