Gene characteristics predicting missense, nonsense and frameshift mutations in tumor samples

Abstract Background Because driver mutations provide selective advantage to the mutant clone, they tend to occur at a higher frequency in tumor samples compared to selectively neutral (passenger) mutations. However, mutation frequency alone is insufficient to identify cancer genes because mutability...
