Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide and fourth lethal cancer in China. However, although genomic studies have identified some mutations associated with ESCC, we know little mutational processes responsible. To identify genome-wide signatures, performed either whole-genome sequencing (WGS) or whole-exome (WES) on 104 ESCC individuals combined our data those 88 previously reported samples. An APOBEC-mediated signature 47% 192 tumors suggests...
