The list shows the top 40 expressed genes with high mutation burdens according to the 20/20 rule12. The rule identifies genes with mutations at recurrent positions that constitute 20% or more of all observed mutations as likely oncogenes (three leftmost columns) and genes with at least 20% inactivating mutations (i.e., premature termination, splice-site variant or indel) as likely tumor suppressors (three rightmost columns). Also shown is the number of samples with qualifying mutations in these genes.
