Yet, paired normal tissues are not always available in clinical settings or for archival samples.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Results: We present SomVarIUS, a computational method for detecting somatic variants using high throughput sequencing data from unpaired tissue samples. We evaluate the performance of the method using genomic data from synthetic and real tumor samples. SomVarIUS identifies somatic variants in exome-seq data of \u2009\u223c150\u2009\u00d7\u2009\u2009coverage with at least 67.7% precision and 64.6% recall rates, when compared with paired-tissue somatic variant calls in real tumor samples. We demonstrate the utility of SomVarIUS by identifying somatic mutations in formalin-fixed samples, and tracking clonal dynamics of oncogenic mutations in targeted deep sequencing data from pre- and post-treatment leukemia samples.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Availability and implementation: SomVarIUS is written in Python 2.7 and available at http:\/\/www.sjdlab.org\/resources\/<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Contact: \u00a0subhajyoti.de@ucdenver.edu<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Supplementary information: \u00a0Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btv685","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,11,21]],"date-time":"2015-11-21T02:29:46Z","timestamp":1448072986000},"page":"808-813","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":46,"title":["SomVarIUS: somatic variant identification from unpaired tissue samples"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Kyle S.","family":"Smith","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Medicine,"},{"name":"2 Department of Pharmacology,"},{"name":"3 Computational Biosciences Training Program, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, CO, USA,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vinod K.","family":"Yadav","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Medicine,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shanshan","family":"Pei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"4 University of Colorado Cancer Center, Aurora, CO, USA and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Daniel A.","family":"Pollyea","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Medicine,"},{"name":"4 University of Colorado Cancer Center, Aurora, CO, USA and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Craig T.","family":"Jordan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Medicine,"},{"name":"4 University of Colorado Cancer Center, Aurora, CO, USA and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Subhajyoti","family":"De","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Medicine,"},{"name":"2 Department of Pharmacology,"},{"name":"5 Department of Biostatistics and Informatics, Colorado School of Public Health, Aurora, CO, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,11,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023020111565404300_btv685-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"i318","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btq214","article-title":"A statistical method for the detection of variants from next-generation resequencing of DNA pools","volume":"26","author":"Bansal","year":"2010","journal-title":"Bioinformatics"},{"key":"2023020111565404300_btv685-B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"318","DOI":"10.1038\/ng.2932","article-title":"Global optimization of somatic variant identification in cancer genomes with a global community challenge","volume":"46","author":"Boutros","year":"2014","journal-title":"Nat.
