Fig. 2. Data matrix showing mutational landscape of 4NQO-induced TSCCs compared with tumour ecology, including recurrent somatic mutations.

Fig. 2

The top panel shows the key clinical parameters: colour coding indicates number of weeks of treatment, number of lesions per tongue, site of the sequenced lesion (dorsal, ventral or lateral), diagnosis (tumour-grade), differentiation status, exophytic tumour (yes/no), invasive tumour (yes/no), proliferation index, and immune-infiltrate index (CD45+ cells) (Supplementary Data 12 and 3). The middle and the bottom panels show the significantly mutated genes (rows; tongue recurrently mutated genes and a subset of dNdS genes, respectively) coloured by the types of mutation. Samples (columns, n = 65) are organised by diagnosis by increasing grade. Somatic mutations are presented according to the type of mutation (missense, nonsense, exonic splicing silencer ‘Ess_Splice’, deletion or silent mutations; colours defined in key). All mutations are listed in Supplementary Data 3, 4 and 5. The distribution between the types of somatic alterations for each gene is shown in the histogram (right). Percentages on the left represent the fraction of tumours harbouring mutations in the corresponding gene.
