The topography of mutational processes in breast cancer genomes

Mutational signatures provide evidence of the mechanism of action of a given mutagen and are found in cancer cells. Here, using 560 breast cancer genomes, the authors demonstrate that mutational signatures are frequently associated with genomic architecture including nucleosome positioning and repli...
