Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified thousands of cancer risk loci revealing many risk regions shared across multiple cancers. Characterizing the cross-cancer shared genetic basis can increase our understanding of global mechanisms of cancer development. In this study, we...

An updated quantitative model to classify missense variants in the TP53 gene: A novel multifactorial strategy.

PMID: 31561579
Cancers (Basel). 2019 Sep 26;11(10). doi: 10.3390/cancers11101440.

The identification of target genes at genome-wide association study (GWAS) loci is a major obstacle for GWAS follow-up. To identify candidate target genes at the 16 known endometrial cancer GWAS risk loci, we performed HiChIP chromatin looping analysis of...

Suspected clonal hematopoiesis as a natural functional assay of TP53 germline variant pathogenicity.
