Variants in BAK1, SPRY4, and GAB2 are associated with pediatric germ cell tumors: A report from the children's oncology group
AssociationN=366Marcotte EL et al.(2017)· Genes, Chromosomes and Cancer

Case-parent triad study of 366 pediatric and adolescent germ cell tumor (GCT) cases examining 26 SNPs from adult testicular GCT GWAS. Three variants reached multiple testing-corrected significance: SPRY4 rs4624820 (OR=0.70, protective), BAK1 rs210138 (OR=1.70, particularly strong for testicular tumors OR=3.31), and GAB2 rs948662 (OR=1.56). Maternal effects observed for KITLG rs4474514 (OR=1.66) and rs7221274 near TEX14/RAD51C/PPM1E (OR=1.63).

About PPM1E

This gene encodes a member of the PPM family of serine/threonine-protein phosphatases. The encoded protein is localized to the nucleus and dephosphorylates and inactivates multiple substrates including serine/threonine-protein kinase PAK 1, 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and the multifunctional calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]
