Widespread mutagenesis and chromosomal instability shape somatic genomes in systemic sclerosis by Sriram Vijayraghavan, Thomas Blouin, James McCollum, Latarsha Porcher, François Virard, Jiri Zavadil, Carol Feghali-Bostwick, Natalie Saini

“…In the genomes of patients with systemic sclerosis, we find evidence of somatic hypermutation or kategis (typically only seen in cancer genomes), we identify mutation signatures closely resembling the error-prone translesion polymerase Polη activity, and observe an activation-induced deaminase-like mutation signature, which overlaps with genomic regions displaying kataegis.…”
