Generating realistic null hypothesis of cancer mutational landscapes using SigProfilerSimulator
[article]
2020
bioRxiv
pre-print
In cancer genomics, a key challenge is the fast generation of accurate somatic mutational landscapes that can be used as a realistic null hypothesis for making biological discoveries. ...
Here we present SigProfilerSimulator, a powerful tool that is capable of simulating the mutational landscapes of thousands of cancer genomes at different resolutions within seconds. ...
An observation is generally considered statistically significant if it reflects an unlikely outcome of the null hypothesis. ...

Deficiency in DNA mismatch repair of methylation damage is a major mutational process in cancer
[article]
2020
bioRxiv
pre-print
Here, using mutation data from cancer genomes, we identify a previously unknown function of MMR, showing that the loss of non-canonical replication-independent MMR activity is a major mutational process ...
The mechanisms underlying these mutational signatures have remained unclear despite studies using a range of in vitro and in vivo models of MMR deficiency. ...
