Described for each disease cohort- Glioblastoma (GBM), lower grade glioma (LGG), melanoma (MEL), medulloblastoma (MB), and breast cancer (BC) are the number of samples (n) analyzed to identify significant microsatellite loci, and those loci with genotypes which form a signature of cancer-associated allelic pairs based on false discovery rate correction. Further described are the analyses of FDR corrected, signature loci shared between different cancers. Cancers compared in sets of 3 are described with a p-value (p < 0.05) and significance (*). Lastly, the number of shared signature CAML between any two cancers is described.
