## NAME

gmt music - Mutational Significance in Cancer (Cancer Mutation Analysis)

## VERSION

This document describes gmt music version 0.04 (2020-11-06 at 21:54:23)

## SYNOPSIS

gmt music ...

## DESCRIPTION

The MuSiC suite is a set of tools aimed at discovering the significance of somatic mutations found within a given cohort of cancer samples, and with respect to a variety of external data sources. The standard inputs required are:

- 1\. mapped reads in BAM format

  - 2\. predicted or validated SNVs or indels in mutation annotation format (MAF)

  - 3\. a list of regions of interest (typically the boundaries of coding exons)

  - 4\. any relevant numeric or categorical clinical data.

  The formats for inputs 3. and 4. are:

- 3\. Regions of Interest File:

  - •

    Do not use headers

  - •

    4 columns, which are \[chromosome  start-position(1-based)  stop-position(1-based)  gene\_name\]

- 4\. Clinical Data Files:

  - •

    Headers are required

  - •

    At least 1 sample\_id column and 1 attribute column, with the format being \[sample\_id  clinical\_data\_attribute  clinical\_data\_attribute  ...\]

  - •

    The sample\_id must match the sample\_id listed in the MAF under "Tumor\_Sample\_Barcode" for relating the mutations of this sample.

  - •

    The header for each clinical\_data\_attribute will appear in the output file to denote relationships with the mutation data from the MAF.

Descriptions for the usage of each tool (each sub-command) can be found separately.

The **play** command runs all of the sub-commands serially on a selected input set.
