Abstract | Mutational signatures represent a genomic footprint of endogenous and exogenous mutational processes through tumor evolution. However, their functional impact on the proteome remains incompletely understood. We analyzed the protein-coding impact of single-base substitution (SBS) signatures in 12,341 cancer genomes from 18 cancer types. Stop-gain mutations (SGMs) (i.e., nonsense mutations) were strongly enriched in SBS signatures of tobacco smoking, APOBEC cytidine deaminases, and reactive oxygen species. These mutational processes alter specific trinucleotide contexts and thereby substitute serines and glutamic acids with stop codons. SGMs frequently affect cancer hallmark pathways and tumor suppressors such as |
