Summary
This genomic sequence includes a genetic variant, rs2953060, that is in strong linkage disequilibrium with a melanoma risk locus identified at 11p15.2 in genome-wide association studies (GWASs), and for which the reference allele has a protective effect. This region was validated as a functional enhancer by massively parallel reporter assays (MPRAs) in C283T melanocytes, where differences in transcriptional activity were observed between the reference and alternative rs2953060 alleles.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
