摘要

Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) enables exploration of the full spectrum of oncogenic processes that generate characteristic patterns of mutations. Mutational signatures provide clues to tumor etiology and highlight potentially targetable pathway defects. Here alongside single-base substitution, doublet-base substitution, small insertion and deletion and copy number aberration signatures previously covered by the Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC), we report signatures from an additional mutation type, structural variations (SVs), extracted de novo from WGS in 10,983 patients across 16 tumor types recruited to the 100,000 Genomes Project. Across the five mutation classes, we report 134 signatures, 26 of which are new to COSMIC, including an SV signature reference set. By relating signatures to genomic features and clinical phenotypes, we provide further insights into mutagenic processes and the application of signature analysis to precision oncology.
