Description Yolk sac tumors (YSTs) are a major histological subtype of malignant ovarian germ cell tumors, and compared to other subtypes, patients with YST have a worse prognosis. The molecular basis of this disease has not been characterized at the genomic level. Here we characterized 41 clinical tumor samples (and related normal samples) from 30 YST patients, with distinct responses to cisplatin-based chemotherapy, through a combination of whole-exome and RNA sequencing. We show that microsatellite instability status and mutational signature are informative of chemoresistance.
