Table 1.

Mutation frequencies according to the probabilistic Shiraishi model of mutational signatures, exemplified by the 6+4∗4+2=24 parameters of the signature depicted in Fig. 2

Nucleotide change (central base) Flanking bases Transcription strand
C >A C >G C >T T >A T >C T >G Position A C G T plus strand minus strand
0.004 0.006 0.928 0.009 0.038 0.015 -2 0.237 0.228 0.293 0.242 0.493 0.507
-1 0.362 0.220 0.279 0.139
+1 0.131 0.053 0.764 0.052
+2 0.232 0.277 0.277 0.214

Each parameter is the fraction of mutations caused by the mutational process which exhibit the respective characteristic. For instance, 92.8% of the changes are C >T and there is next to no transcriptional bias (compare to Fig. 2)
