Methods for determining the cause of somatic mutagenesis
- Summary
- The patent provides for a platform technology that implements the only known method able to use genetic sequence information to identify the source of many mutations in an individual to: 1. Identify the cause and nature of pre-cancerous conditions 2. Somatic hypermutation activity profiling for individuals before, during and following treatment and, 3.Track mutation changes for the worried well over their lifetime.

This invention is in the field of computational immunology and the application of genetic algorithms for methods to analyse nucleic acid sequence codes (DNA or RNA). More particularly, it provides a novel method for analysing genomic mutation patterns arising from somatic mutagenic processes associated with disease (e.g. cancer, AIDs and some neurodegenerative diseases). It involves the identification and characterisation of endogenous mutagenic agents and processes linked to the relatively elev
