Impact of cancer mutational signatures on transcription factor motifs in the human genome

Abstract Background Somatic mutations in cancer genomes occur through a variety of molecular mechanisms, which contribute to different mutational patterns. To summarize these, mutational signatures have been defined using a large number of cancer genomes, and related to distinct mutagenic processes....
