Abstract excerpt

Background: Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) is a ubiquitous cutaneous virus that causes Merkel cell carcinoma, which develops preferentially in white populations from Europe and North America. However, the genomic variations of MCPyV among ethnic groups have not been well delineated, and even less is known regarding alterations in the noncoding control region (NCCR) in the general population. Methods: MCPyV...
