Identification of High-Impact cis-Regulatory Mutations Using Transcription Factor Specific Random Forest Models.

Cancer genomes contain vast amounts of somatic mutations, many of which are passenger mutations not involved in oncogenesis. Whereas driver mutations in protein-coding genes can be distinguished from passenger mutations based on their recurrence, non-coding mutations are usually not recurrent at the...
