Genome-wide assessment of the association of rare and common copy number variations to testicular germ cell cancer

Genome-wide assessment of the association of rare and common copy number variations to testicular germ cell cancer

Testicular germ cell cancer (TGCC) is one of the most heritable forms of cancer. Previous genome-wide association studies have focused on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), largely ignoring the influence of copy number variants (CNVs). Here we present a genome-wide study of copy number variatio...
