To identify molecules that could be pharmacologically targeted in NF1Mut melanomas, we first established 32 STCs from subcutaneous, lymph node, and brain metastases of 30 patients with melanoma (Fig. 1A; Supplementary Ta

Evidence Type(s): Diagnostic, Oncogenic
Justification: Diagnostic: The passage discusses the identification of mutational profiles in melanoma, specifically mentioning that C>T transitions are characterized as cutaneous melanoma-defining features, which indicates a role in classifying or defining the disease. Oncogenic: The mention of C>T transitions as part of the mutational profile in melanoma suggests that these somatic variants contribute to tumor development or progression, particularly in the context of melanoma.
