Integrative screening identifies functional variants and VNTRs underlying GWAS signals at the 5p15.33 multi-cancer susceptibility locus

Aidan O’Brien, Hyunkyung Kong, Harsh Patel…·Laufey Thora Amundadottir

The paper identifies functional variants and VNTRs at the 5p15.33 locus using fine-mapping, MPRA, and CRISPRi screens, revealing their role in cancer susceptibility through antagonistic pleiotropy.

Bayesian copy number detection and association in large-scale studies

Stephen Cristiano, David M. McKean, Jacob Carey…·Robert B. Scharpf

This paper develops a Bayesian method to detect copy number variants and assess their association with disease in large-scale studies, finding deletions near MYC and TUSC3 linked to pancreatic cancer.
