INTEGRATE-neo: a pipeline for personalized gene fusion neoantigen discovery

MOTIVATION: While high-throughput sequencing (HTS) has been used successfully to discover tumor-specific mutant peptides (neoantigens) from somatic missense mutations, the field currently lacks a method for identifying which gene fusions may generate neoantigens. RESULTS: We demonstrate the applicat...

Sumario:MOTIVATION: While high-throughput sequencing (HTS) has been used successfully to discover tumor-specific mutant peptides (neoantigens) from somatic missense mutations, the field currently lacks a method for identifying which gene fusions may generate neoantigens. RESULTS: We demonstrate the application of our gene fusion neoantigen discovery pipeline, called INTEGRATE-Neo, by identifying gene fusions in prostate cancers that may produce neoantigens. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: INTEGRATE-Neo is implemented in C ++ and Python. Full source code and installation instructions are freely available from https://github.com/ChrisMaherLab/INTEGRATE-Neo. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
