568 genes identified with the potential to trigger cancer

(Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona)) Analysis of the genomes of 28,000 tumours from 66 types of cancer has led to the identification of 568 cancer driver genesPerformed by the Biomedical Genomics Lab at IRB Barcelona, the study has allowed a major update of the Integrative OncoGenomics (IntOGen) platform, aimed at identifying mutational cancer driver genes.Published in Nature Reviews Cancer, the results provide the most complete snapshot of the compendium of cancer driver gene...
