Abstract:Cancer somatic mutations are the product of multiple mutational and repair processes, both of which are tightly associated with DNA replication. Mutation rates (MR) are known to be higher in late replication timing (RT) regions, but different processes can affect this association. Systematic analysis of the mutational landscape of 2,787 tumors from 32 tumor types revealed that the tumors can be divided into two groups with approximately one third of the tumor samples show weak association between replication t… Show more
