One such case of that demonstrates the functional impact of non-coding AIMs from association literature is the African ancestry variant, rs72725854, a rare variant found in an enhancer region at 8q24 which has been shown to regulate multiple lnRNA genes and the MYC oncogene to influence prostate cancer risk in men of African ancestry (Darst et al., 2020; Walavalkar et al., 2020). The gene discussed is MYC; the disease is prostate carcinoma.
