Germline Missense Variants in the BTNL2 Gene Are Associated with Prostate Cancer Susceptibility

BACKGROUND: Rare, inherited mutations account for 5%–10% of all prostate cancer (PCa) cases. However, to date, few causative mutations have been identified. METHODS: To identify rare mutations for PCa, we performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) in multiple kindreds (n = 91) from 19 hereditary prostat...
