A variant at 9p21.3 functionally implicates CDKN2B in paediatric B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia aetiology

A risk variant located at 9p21.3 is associated with cancer risk in pediatric B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. Here, the authors show that this variant affects the gene expression of the tumour suppressor gene Cdkn2b.
