Detecting Somatic Mutations Without Matched Normal Samples Using Long Reads

2024-02-29

Abstract excerpt

DNA sequencing of tumours to identify somatic mutations has become a critical tool to guide the type of treatment given to cancer patients. The gold standard for mutation calling is comparing sequencing data from the tumour to a matched normal sample to avoid mis-classifying inherited SNPs as mutations. This procedure works extremely well, but in certain situations only a tumour sample is available. While approach...
