Mutation of FOXL2 in granulosa cell tumors of the ovary

We generated paired-end RNA-Seq data using the Illumina Genome Analyzer II platform for four adult granulosa cell tumours (GCTs) of the ovary (1 primary, 3 recurrent). We screened this data for the presence of GCT specific sequence variants and detected a non-synonymous mutation in the FOXL2 gene that was found to be recurrent in 97% of 89 additional GCTs. To measure genomic stability of the four index cases, we generated Affmetrix SNP 6.0 data and analysed these data for copy number changes. Raw sequence reads as well as Affymetrix CEL files are available to applicants.
