[We identified melanoma patients that were heterozygous for non-coding germline variants in the 5'-UTR of CDKN2A (c.-21C > T; c.-25C > T&c.-180G > A; c.-56G > T; c.-67G > C) and examined their impact on the p16(INK4a) 5'-UTR activity using two luciferase-based reporter vectors that differ in basal transcription level and that were transfected into the melanoma-derived WM266-4 and in the breast cancer-derived MCF7 cells.].
