Abstract

ABSTRACT Sequencing studies have been instrumental in understanding the genetic basis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Our recent whole-genome sequencing study focusing on lower cytogenetic risk CLL demonstrated that CLL mutations can be attributed to 3 key mutational processes—2 types of activation induced-cytidine deaminase (AID) signatures and an aging signature—that operate at different times throughout CLL evolution.
