Sequencing_the_exome_of_12_early_sporadic_human_colorectal_cancers__CRC_

In the project we sequenced the exomes of tumour from patients with germline mutations in APC i.e. FAP patients. The aim of the study was to determine the load of mutations acquired during the early staged of tumour development in these patients with the aim of determining the rate mutation acquisition.

EGAD00001004332	Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and MUTYH‐associated polyposis (MAP) are inherited disorders associated with multiple colorectal adenomas that lead to a very high risk of colorectal cancer. The somatic mutations that drive adenoma development in these conditions have not been investigated comprehensively. In this study we performed analysis of paired colorectal adenoma and normal tissue DNA from individuals with FAP or MAP, sequencing 14 adenoma whole exomes (eight MAP, six FAP), 55 adenoma targeted exomes (33 MAP, 22 FAP) and germline DNA from each patient.
