Matched_Pair_Cancer_Cell_line_Whole_Genomes

We propose to definitively characterise the somatic genetics of 29 matched pair cell lines through generation of comprehensive catalogues of somatic mutations by high coverage genome sequencing.

Dataset ID	Description	Technology	Samples
EGAD00001000145	Matched Pair Cancer Cell line Whole Genomes	Illumina HiSeq 2000	58
EGAD00001000638	Insertion of processed pseudogenes is known to occur in the germline but has not previously been observed in somatic cells. Formation of pseudogenes could represent a new class of mutation in cancers and a new source of potential driver events.	Illumina HiSeq 2000	20
EGAD00001001349	Frequent somatic transfer of mitochondrial DNA into the nuclear genome of human cancer cells	Illumina HiSeq 2000	4
