However, in the range of larger subclones that were observable by our methods (>10% of malignant cells), we witnessed increased diversity after therapy (Figure?2D). Although the available data cannot definitively rule out extensive diversification [http://www.selleckchem.com/products/Bortezomib.html Bortezomib] following therapy, this increase likely results, at least in part, from outgrowth of pre-existing minor subclones (Schuh et?al., 2012; Wu, 2012). This may result from the removal of dominant clones by cytotoxic treatment, eliminating competition for growth and allowing the expansion of one or more fit subclones to frequencies above our detection threshold. Further supporting our interpretation that fitter clones grow more effectively and become detectable after treatment, we observed an increased frequency of subclonal driver events (which are presumably fitter) in treated relative to untreated patients (Figure?2D, bottom) (note that driver events include CLL driver mutations [Figure?1A] and sSNVs in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amrinone Amrinone] highly conserved sites of genes in the Cancer Gene Census [Futreal et?al., 2004]). While general aspects of temporal evolution could not be completely resolved in single time point WES samples, the order of driver mutation acquisition could be partially inferred from the aggregate frequencies at which they are found to be clonal or subclonal. We considered the 149 samples as a series of ��snapshots�� taken along a temporal axis. Clonal status in all or most mutations affecting a specific gene or chromosomal lesion would suggest that this alteration was acquired at or prior to the most recent selective sweep before sampling and hence could be defined as a stereotypically early event. Conversely, predominantly subclonal status in a specific genetic alteration implies a likely later event that is tolerated and selected for only in the presence of an additional mutation. This strategy was used to infer temporal ordering of the [http://www.selleckchem.com/products/sch772984.html SCH772984 cell line] recurrent sSNVs and sCNAs (Figures 3A and S4). We focused on alterations found in at least three samples within the cohort of 149 CLL samples. We found that three driver mutations��MYD88 (n?= 12), trisomy 12 (n?= 24), and hemizygous del(13q) (n = 70)��were clonal in 80%�C100% of samples harboring these alterations, a significantly higher level than for other driver events (q?
