MIRMMR: binary classification of microsatellite instability using methylation and mutations.

ABSTRACT:

Summary

MIRMMR predicts microsatellite instability status in cancer samples using methylation and mutation information, in contrast to existing methods that rely on observed microsatellites. Additionally, MIRMMR highlights those genetic alterations contributing to microsatellite instability.
