Among the 5,291 coding somatic mutations found in an aggregate of 240 matched tumour/normal samples, we found 26 overlapping variants (Additional file 3) in SH-SY5Y inside 24 genes among which 9 were rare amino-acid changing mutations inside 7 genes (ALK, FOXD4L1, HLA-DRB1, NBPF10, NBPF14, PABPC3, TEKT4). The gene discussed is HLA-DRB1; the disease is neoplasm.
