Supplementary Information

This file contains Supplementary Methods and Supplementary Tables 1-5 with Legends and Supplementary Figure 1. The Supplementary Tables show protein kinase genes in the screen (Table 1); somatic mutations indentified (Table 2); cancer samples analysed (Table 3); germline variants identified (Table 4) and kinase gene ranking by probability of carrying driver mutations (Table 5). The Supplementary Figure 1 illustrates mutation prevalence in individual cancers across cancer types (PDF 2632 kb)
