Key Points

The study shows a positive correlation between gene size and mutation frequency in tumor suppressor genes.
It specifies that mutations like nonsynonymous and frameshift occur more frequently in larger genes.
Analysis covers data from 33 different cancers, highlighting significant risks associated with structural variations.
Insights suggest that segmental duplications may lead to high risks of somatic deletions and mutations.
