Abstract excerpt
Identifying the mutant genes that are selected during carcinogenesis is key to identifying candidates for intervention and understanding the processes that promote transformation. Here we applied two selection metrics to study the dynamics of mutational selection in a mouse model of ultraviolet light driven skin carcinogenesis in which multiple synchronous tumors develop in each animal. Sequencing normal skin and...
