The paper identifies mutational signatures in normal kidney cells from multiple countries, revealing exposure to exogenous mutagens including aristolochic acids and unknown agents prevalent in Japan.

This study identifies germline genetic variants influencing somatic mutation patterns in 2,642 cancer genomes across 39 cancer types.

This study characterizes mitochondrial genomes in 2,700 cancer patients across 37 types using whole-genome sequencing and RNA-seq, revealing mutational patterns, truncating mutations, and nuclear transfer of mitochondrial DNA.
