Abstract SY25-01: Identification of enhancer elements at kidney cancer susceptibility loci using genome-wide approaches in which post-GWAS functional studies implicate the SWI/SNF DPF3 gene for the 14q24 risk locus

We investigated the set of common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are highly correlated with 20 renal cancer (RCC) susceptibility regions identified by Genome-wide Association Study (GWAS). Together extensive fine-mapping and in silico functional analyses, based on publicly available resources, we used an integrated approach to pursue regulatory elements in which one or more variant allele could confer differential functional...
