ABSTRACT
The clonal mutations in driver genes enable cells to gradually acquire growth advantage in tumor development. Therefore, revealing the functions of clonal driver gene mutations is important. Here, we proposed the method FCMP that considered evolutionary dependencies to analyze the functions of clonal driver gene mutations in a single patient. Applying our method to five cancer types from The Cancer Genome Atlas, we identified specific functions and common functions of clonal driver gene mutations. We found that the clonal driver gene mutations in the same patient played multiple functions. We also found that clonal mutations in the same driver gene performed different functions in different patients. These findings suggested that the clonal driver gene mutations showed strong tumor heterogeneity. In the pan-cancer analysis, the immune-related functions for clonal driver gene mutations were shared by multiple cancer types. In addition, clonal mutations in some driver genes predicted the survival of patients in cancers.
