Convergent mutations in tissue-specific regulatory regions reveal novel cancer drivers

2020-08-22

Abstract excerpt

Although much effort has been devoted to identifying coding mutations across cancer types, regulatory mutations remain poorly characterized. Here, we describe a framework to identify non-coding drivers by aggregating mutations in cell-type specific regulatory regions for each gene. Application of this approach to 2,634 patients across 11 human cancer types identified 60 pan-cancer, 22 pan-breast and 192 cancer spe...
