These authors performed a large-scale study in which they identified 2,576 somatic mutations across 1,507 coding genes from 441 breast, lung, ovarian and prostate cancer types and subtypes. The study provides an overview of the mutational spectra across major human cancers, implies an expanded role for Gα subunits in multiple cancer types and identifies several potential therapeutic targets.
