Circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in the peripheral blood is a promising biomarker for cancer diagnosis and prognosis. Somatic mutations identified in cancers have been used to detect therapeutic targets for clinical transformation and individualize drug selection, while germline variants can predict a patient's risk of developing cancer and drug sensitivity. However, no platform has been developed to analyze, calculate, integrate, and friendly visualize these pan-cancer cfDNA mutations deeply. In this work, we performed panel sequencing encompassing 1,115 cancer-related genes across 16,659 cancer patients, spanning 27 cancer types. We detected 496 germline variants in leukocytes and 11,232 somatic mutations in the cfDNA of all patients. CPGV (Cancer Peripheral blood Gene Variations), a database constructed from this dataset, is the first pan-cancer cfDNA database that encompasses somatic mutations, germline variants, and further comparative analyses of mutations across different cancer types. It bears great promise to serve as a valuable resource for cancer research.

A software package to analyze next-generation resequencing data. The toolkit offers a wide variety of tools, with a primary focus on variant discovery and genotyping as well as strong emphasis on data quality assurance. Its robust architecture, powerful processing engine and high-performance computing features make it capable of taking on projects of any size. This software library makes writing efficient analysis tools using next-generation sequencing data very easy, and second it's a suite of tools for working with human medical resequencing projects such as 1000 Genomes and The Cancer Genome Atlas. These tools include things like a depth of coverage analyzers, a quality score recalibrator, a SNP/indel caller and a local realigner. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)

Database to store and display somatic mutation information and related details and contains information relating to human cancers. The mutation data and associated information is extracted from the primary literature. In order to provide a consistent view of the data a histology and tissue ontology has been created and all mutations are mapped to a single version of each gene. The data can be queried by tissue, histology or gene and displayed as a graph, as a table or exported in various formats.
Some key features of COSMIC are:
* Contains information on publications, samples and mutations. Includes samples which have been found to be negative for mutations during screening therefore enabling frequency data to be calculated for mutations in different genes in different cancer types.
* Samples entered include benign neoplasms and other benign proliferations, in situ and invasive tumours, recurrences, metastases and cancer cell lines.

Pair aware preprocessing tool optimized for Illumina next generation sequencing data. Includes several processing steps for read trimming and filtering. Operating systems Unix/Linux, Mac OS, Windows.
View all literature mentionsAn efficient software tool to utilize update-to-date information to functionally annotate genetic variants detected from diverse genomes (including human genome hg18, hg19, as well as mouse, worm, fly, yeast and many others). Given a list of variants with chromosome, start position, end position, reference nucleotide and observed nucleotides, ANNOVAR can perform: 1. gene-based annotation. 2. region-based annotation. 3. filter-based annotation. 4. other functionalities.
