The somatic mutation landscape of the human body

2019-06-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Somatic mutations in healthy tissues contribute to aging, neurodegeneration, and cancer initiation, yet remain largely uncharacterized. To gain a better understanding of their distribution and functional impacts, we leveraged the genomic information contained in the transcriptome to uniformly call somatic mutations from over 7,500 tissue samples, representing 36 distinct tissues. This catalog, c...
