WES, sWGS and RNA-seq of Asian breast cancer

The dataset contains a full genomics characterization of 527 Asian breast tumours. This includes whole-exome sequencing of tumour tissue at 80X, whole-exome sequencing of matched normal (blood) tissue at 40X, shallow-whole genome sequencing at 0.1X for copy number analyses, and RNA-seq of tumour tissue at 40X coverage (>15 million reads). Whole-exome libraries were prepared using the Nextera Rapid Capture Exome Kit; exome capture was performed in pools of 3 and subjected to paired end 75 sequencing on a HiSEQ4000 platform. RNA libraries were prepared using the TruSeq Stranded Total RNA HT kit with Ribo-Zero Gold as per manufacturer’s instructions and also subjected to paired end 75 sequencing on a HiSEQ4000 platform. Uploaded bam files have been mapped to the hs37d5 human genome and processed using the standard GATK pipelines. Paired clinical, demographic, genotyping, and overall survival data for these patients are available from the associated publications or by request.
