Germline variant burden in cancer genes correlates with age at diagnosis and somatic mutation burden
Germline variants that affect the expression or function of protein-coding regions of cancer genes are associated with cancer susceptibility. Here, the authors show that a larger number of germline variants are present in early-onset cancers, while acquired somatic mutations are prevalent in cancers...
