The MuTect algorithm for calling somatic point mutations enables subclonal analysis of the whole-genome or whole-exome sequencing data being generated in large-scale cancer genomics projects.
Detection of somatic point substitutions is a key step in characterizing the cancer genome. However, existing methods typically miss low-allelic-fraction m...
