Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a common malignancy in Southeast Asian countries, and genetic background is a well-known component of the complexity underlying its tumorigenic process. We have mapped a nasopharyngeal carcinoma susceptibility locus to chromosome 4p15.1-q12 in a previous linkage study on nasopharyngeal carcinoma pedigrees. In this study provided in this communication, we screened all the genes in this...
