Subsequently, Rafnar et al. found that the rs401681 polymorphism was associated with the risk of basal cell, lung, urinary bladder, prostate and cervical cancers and cutaneous melanoma, and rs2736098, a synonymous coding SNP in exon 2 of the TERT gene, was associated with the risk of basal cell, lung, urinary bladder, and prostate cancers [10, 24]. The gene discussed is TERT; the disease is cervical cancer.
