    Deciphering colorectal cancer genetics through multi-omic analysis of 100,204 cases and 154,587 controls of European and east Asian ancestries

    Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. We conducted a genome-wide association study meta-analysis of 100,204 CRC cases and 154,587 controls of European and east Asian ancestry, iden...

    Exome sequencing identifies frequent inactivating mutations in BAP1, ARID1A and PBRM1 in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas

    Laura Wood, Kenneth Kinzler, Nickolas Papadopoulos, Aldo Scarpa and colleagues report exome sequencing of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas. They identify recurrent somatic mutations in BAP1, ARID1A and PBRM1.

    The role of companion diagnostics in the development and use of mutation-targeted cancer therapies

    Among all the known differences between cancer and normal cells, it is only the genetic differences that unequivocally distinguish the former from the latter. It is therefore not surprising that recent therape...

    Monoallelic mutation analysis (MAMA) for identifying germline mutations

    Dissection of germline mutations in a sensitive and specific manner presents a continuing challenge. In dominantly inherited diseases, mutations occur in only one allele and are often masked by the normal alle...
