Large-scale multiomic analysis identifies non-coding somatic driver mutations and nominates ZFP36L2 as a driver gene for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
Background The identification and characterisation of somatic cancer driver mutations in the non-coding genome remains challenging. Objective To broadly characterise non-coding driver mutations for p...

Allelic effects on KLHL17 expression underlie a pancreatic cancer genome-wide association signal at chr1p36.33 - Nature Communications
Allele-preferential transcription factor binding can influence pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma risk loci function. Here, the authors show allele-specific JunB and JunD binding at chr1p36.33 and propo...
