A practical guide for mutational signature analysis in hematological malignancies
Mutational signature analysis provides important information about the mutational processes underpinning different stages of tumorigenesis. Here, the authors compare publicly available signature extraction tools and suggest a framework for the generation

MutEnricher: a flexible toolset for somatic mutation enrichment analysis of tumor whole genomes
Background Analysis of somatic mutations from tumor whole exomes has fueled discovery of novel cancer driver genes. However, ~ 98% of the genome is non-coding and includes regulatory elements whose normal cellular functions can be disrupted by mutation ...

Genomic landscape and chronological reconstruction of driver events in multiple myeloma
Multiple myeloma evolves continuously. Here the authors chronologically reconstruct driver events in multiple myeloma, noting a limited repertoire of initiating driver events that shape the evolutionary trajectory of the disease.

Comparison of X-ray and gamma-ray dose-response curves for pink somatic mutations in Tradescantia clone 02 [PDF]
Microdosimetric data indicate that the mean specific energy,zeta, produced by individual charged particles from X rays and gamma rays is different for the two radiation qualities by nearly a factor of two.

Effects of Somatic Mutations Are Associated with SNP in the Progression of Individual Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patient: The Two-Hit Theory Explains Inherited Predisposition to Pathogenesis [PDF]
This study evaluated the effects of somatic mutations and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on disease progression and tried to verify the two-hit theory in cancer pathogenesis.
