LoLoPicker: Detecting Low Allelic-Fraction Variants in Low-Quality Cancer Samples

2016-03-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> We developed an efficient tool dedicated to call somatic variants from whole-exome sequencing (WES) data using tumor and its matched normal tissue, plus a user-defined control panel of non-cancer samples. Compared with other methods, we showed superior performance of LoLoPicker with significantly improved specificity. The algorithm of LoLoPicker is particularly useful for calling variants from lo...
