Neutral evolution in a CMML patient with linear evolution. (A) Inverse mutation allele frequency vs cumulative number of mutations from CMML patient tumors from Merlevede et al.21 The R2 value was computed as in Johnson et al,11 filtering mutations outside of the frequency range of 0.12 to 0.3. R2 > 0.98 was taken as samples compatible with neutral evolution and displayed. (B) Table listing exonic mutations of patient UPN62. This information was extracted from Merlevede et al,21 which reports results from whole-genome sequencing of 17 CMML patients. The final column states the impact of the mutation as predicted by Merlevede et al.21 (C) Fishplot representing the clonal architecture of the patient with the putative driver mutations (TET2 mutations are present in ∼60% of CMML patients, and mutations in PRRC2B have recently been identified as recurrent in CMML patients21 ). Drawn in R using the fishplot library.99,100 D, damaging mutation; N, neutral mutation; NA, not available.
