Analysis of variants in untranslated and promoter regions and breast cancer risk using whole genome sequencing data
2024-07-05
Abstract excerpt
Recent exome-wide association studies have explored the role of coding variants in breast cancer risk, highlighting the role of rare variants in multiple genes including BRCA1, BRCA2, CHEK2, ATM and PALB2 , as well as new susceptibility genes e.g., MAP3K1 . These genes, however, explain a small proportion of the missing heritability of the disease. Much of the missing heritability likely lies in the non-coding gen...
