Abstract

This study investigates the role of 5′ UTR PMS2 Kozak sequence genetic variation in cancer risk. It accomplishes this through the development of a mid-throughput reporter assay where variants can be tested for protein translation efficiency. The results highlight the importance of continued study of the Kozak sequence related to human disease.
