Multiple myeloma risk variant at 7p15.3 creates an IRF4-binding site and interferes with CDCA7L expression

Genome wide association studies have identified multiple risk loci for multiple myeloma. Here, the authors show that the expression of CDCA7Lis associated with patient survival and expression of the gene is influenced by a risk variant at 7p15.3, which creates a transcription factor binding site for...
