Functional hotspots included oncogenic mutations within proteins that are generally considered to be tumor suppressors, for example p.R248 and p.R273 in TP53. Except for the DNA binding sites p.R248 and p.R273 in the p53 DNA binding domain, we did not find mutational hotspots in known tumor suppressors that appeared in more than five cancer types. This evidence concerns the gene TP53 and neoplasm.
