Whole-exome sequencing reveals the mutational spectrum of testicular germ cell tumours.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2015-01-22)
Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) are the most common cancer in young men. Here we perform whole-exome sequencing (WES) of 42 TGCTs to comprehensively study the cancer's mutational profile. The mutation rate is uniformly ...
