Abstract excerpt
Proteasome subunit beta types 8 and 9 (PSMB8, PSMB9) play critical roles in the human leukocyte antigen class I (HLA I)-presenting system. Studies have suggested that polymorphisms in the PSMB8 and PSMB9 genes may influence the immune functions of PSMB8 and PSMB9, and thus be associated with various human cancers. We investigated associations involving single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2071543 in PSMB8,...
