Mining cancer genomes for change-of-metabolic-function mutations.

Abstract excerpt

Enzymes with novel functions are needed to enable new organic synthesis techniques. Drawing inspiration from gain-of-function cancer mutations that functionally alter proteins and affect cellular metabolism, we developed METIS (Mutated Enzymes from Tumors In silico Screen). METIS identifies metabolism-altering cancer mutations using mutation recurrence rates and protein structure. We used METIS to screen 298,517...
