Statistical methods for identifying sequence motifs affecting point mutations

2016-11-16

Abstract excerpt

Mutation processes differ between types of point mutation, genomic locations, cells, and biological species. For some point mutations, specific neighbouring bases are known to be mechanistically influential. Beyond these cases, numerous questions remain unresolved including: what are the sequence motifs that affect point mutations? how large are the motifs? and, do they vary between samples? We present new log-lin...
