Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Determining the impact of somatic mutations requires understanding the functional relationship of genes acquiring mutations; however, it is largely unknown how mutations in functionally related genes influence each other. METHODS: We employed non-synonymous-to-synonymous or dNdS ratios to evaluate the evolutionary dependency (ED) of gene pairs, assuming a mutation in one gene of a gene pair can affect...
