The shared frameshift mutation landscape of microsatellite-unstable cancers suggests immunoediting during tumor evolution

DNA mismatch repair (MMR)-deficient cancers with microsatellite-instability are characterized by a high load of frameshift mutation-derived neoantigens. Here, by mapping the frameshift mutation landscape and predicting the immunogenicity of the resulting peptides, the authors show evidence of immuno...
