We found Fam84b to be downregulated to the same extent as Myc, suggesting that the deletion interval may contain regulatory elements for both Myc and Fam84b. FAM84B has also been identified to physically interact with the 8q24 gene desert locus through long-range chromatin looping, albeit in prostate cancer cells [47]. The gene discussed is LRATD2; the disease is Familial prostate cancer.
