Gene-family-dependent thermodynamic effects of oncogenic mutations on nucleosome-DNA binding stability: a comparative molecular dynamics study across 22 cancer hotspots
Oncogenic mutations are known to occur at non-random rates and specific hotspots, yet the structural and thermodynamic factors underlying these hotspots remain poorly understood. This study presents molecular dynamics simulations of 22 cancer hotspots across 10 oncogene families, simulated as histone-DNA complexes. Acr...
