Rare disruptive mutations in ciliary function genes contribute to testicular cancer susceptibility
There is some evidence of a hereditary risk for developing testicular germ cell tumours. Here, the authors use whole-exome sequencing and identify a risk variant for the disease in DNAAF1, a gene involved in microtubule-based cilia.
