In each meta-analysis of breast and lung cancer across BBJ1 and UKB, we identified one locus newly satisfying the genome-wide significance threshold (breast: rs2800691 at PADI6 on 1p36, P = 3.6 × 10−8; lung: rs2076295 at DSP on 6p24, P = 2.6 × 10−8; Table 2 and Supplementary Fig. 3). Here, PADI6 is linked to lung cancer.
