Thomas, Pål Sætrom, Federica Gemignani, Stefano Landi, Benjamin Schuster-Böckler, Douglas A. Bell & Gareth L. Bond Decades of research have shown that mutations in the p53 stress response pathway affect the incidence of diverse cancers more than mutations in other pathways. However, most evidence is limited to somatic mutations and rare inherited mutations. Using newly abundant genomic data, we demonstrate that
