Oncoprints can reveal a wealth of information, including:
- Mutational Hotspots: Frequently mutated regions in specific genes. - Co-occurring Alterations: Genetic changes that often appear together in the same samples. - Mutual Exclusivity: Alterations that rarely co-occur, suggesting they may affect the same biological pathway. - Gene Amplifications and Deletions: Changes in gene copy number that could influence cancer progression. - Expression Levels: Variations in gene expression that may be correlated with mutations or copy number changes.
