A GWAS in uveal melanoma identifies risk polymorphisms in the CLPTM1L locus
Cancer: Risk allele identified for melanoma of the eye Researchers have discovered an important genetic risk variant linked to uveal melanoma, a rare malignant tumor of the eye. Marc-Henri Stern from Institut Curie in Paris, France, and colleagues compared more than 860,000 single DNA variants cover...
