Abstract excerpt
Somatic mutations are the cause of cancer and have been implicated in other, noncancerous diseases and aging. While clonally expanded mutations can be studied by deep sequencing of bulk DNA, very few somatic mutations expand clonally, and most are unique to each cell. We describe a detailed protocol for single-cell whole-genome sequencing to discover and analyze somatic mutations in tissues and organs. The...
