Detecting and understanding meaningful cancerous mutations based on computational models of mRNA splicing

Abstract Cancer research has long relied on non-silent mutations. Yet, it has become overwhelmingly clear that silent mutations can affect gene expression and cancer cell fitness. One fundamental mechanism that apparently silent mutations can severely disrupt is alternative splicing. Here we introdu...
