Abstract excerpt
While a number of genes have been implicated in melanoma susceptibility, the role of protein-coding variation in melanoma development and progression remains underexplored. To better characterize the role of germline coding variation in melanoma, we conducted a whole-exome case-control and somatic-germline interaction study involving 322 skin cutaneous melanoma cases from The Cancer Genome Atlas and 3607 controls...
