COSMIC Cancer Gene Census 3D database: understanding the impacts of mutations on cancer targets [PDF]
AbstractMutations in hallmark genes are believed to be the main drivers of cancer progression. These mutations are reported in the Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC). Structural appreciation of where these mutations appear, in protein–protein interfaces, active sites or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) interfaces, and predicting the impacts ...

The COSMIC (Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer) database and website [PDF]
The discovery of mutations in cancer genes has advanced our understanding of cancer. These results are dispersed across the scientific literature and with the availability of the human genome sequence will continue to accrue. The COSMIC (Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer) database and website have been developed to store somatic mutation data in

A first RDF implementation of the COSMIC database on mutations in cancer
Motivation and Objectives Within a living organism, genome and proteome variations may influence many molecular interactions and biochemical pathways, leading to deleterious effects in the proper activity of cells, tissues, and organs; ultimately, this may be the cause of many syndromes and diseases.

Predictive Modeling of Novel Somatic Mutation Impacts on Cancer Prognosis: A Machine Learning Approach Using the COSMIC Database [PDF]
Abstract Background Somatic mutations play a crucial role in cancer initiation, progression, and treatment response. While high-throughput sequencing has vastly expanded our understanding of cancer genomics, interpreting the functional impact of novel somatic mutations remains challenging. Machine learning approaches show promise in predicting mutation

Spotlight on amino acid changing mutations in the JAK-STAT pathway: from disease-specific mutation to general mutation databases [PDF]
The JAK-STAT pathway is central to cytokine signaling and controls normal physiology and disease. Aberrant activation via mutations that change amino acids in proteins of the pathway can result in diseases.

Predicting high confidence ctDNA somatic variants with ensemble machine learning models [PDF]
Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) is a minimally invasive cancer biomarker that can be used to inform treatment of cancer patients. The utility of ctDNA as a cancer biomarker depends on the ability to accurately detect somatic variants associated with ...
