<p id="P1">A recent association study identified a common variant (rs9790517) at 4q24 to be associated with breast cancer risk. Independent association signals and potential functional variants in this locus have not been explored.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="S2"><title>Methods</title>
<p id="P2">We conducted a fine-mapping analysis in 55,540 breast cancer cases and 51,168 controls from the Breast Cancer Association Consortium.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="S3"><title>Results</title>
<p id="P3">Conditional analyses identified two independent association signals among women of European ancestry, represented by rs9790517 (conditional p = 2.51 × 10<sup>−4</sup>
; OR = 1.04; 95% CI 1.02–1.07) and rs77928427 (p = 1.86 × 10<sup>−4</sup>
; OR = 1.04; 95% CI 1.02–1.07). Functional annotation using data from the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project revealed two putative functional variants, rs62331150 and rs73838678 in linkage disequilibrium (LD) with rs9790517 (r<sup>2</sup>
≥ 0.90) residing in the active promoter or enhancer, respectively, of the nearest gene, <italic>TET2</italic>
. Both variants are located in DNase I hypersensitivity and transcription factor binding sites. Using data from both The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Molecular Taxonomy of Breast Cancer International Consortium (METABRIC), we showed that rs62331150 was associated with level of expression of <italic>TET2</italic>
in breast normal and tumor tissue.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="S4"><title>Conclusion</title>
<p id="P4">Our study identified two independent association signals at 4q24 in relation to breast cancer risk and suggested that observed association in this locus may be mediated through the regulation of <italic>TET2</italic>
.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="S5"><title>Impact</title>
<p id="P5">Fine-mapping study with large sample size warranted for identification of independent loci for breast cancer risk.</p>

<abstract><sec id="S1"><title>Background</title>
<p id="P1">A recent association study identified a common variant (rs9790517) at 4q24 to be associated with breast cancer risk. Independent association signals and potential functional variants in this locus have not been explored.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="S2"><title>Methods</title>
<p id="P2">We conducted a fine-mapping analysis in 55,540 breast cancer cases and 51,168 controls from the Breast Cancer Association Consortium.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="S3"><title>Results</title>
<p id="P3">Conditional analyses identified two independent association signals among women of European ancestry, represented by rs9790517 (conditional p = 2.51 × 10<sup>−4</sup>
; OR = 1.04; 95% CI 1.02–1.07) and rs77928427 (p = 1.86 × 10<sup>−4</sup>
; OR = 1.04; 95% CI 1.02–1.07). Functional annotation using data from the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project revealed two putative functional variants, rs62331150 and rs73838678 in linkage disequilibrium (LD) with rs9790517 (r<sup>2</sup>
≥ 0.90) residing in the active promoter or enhancer, respectively, of the nearest gene, <italic>TET2</italic>
. Both variants are located in DNase I hypersensitivity and transcription factor binding sites. Using data from both The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Molecular Taxonomy of Breast Cancer International Consortium (METABRIC), we showed that rs62331150 was associated with level of expression of <italic>TET2</italic>
in breast normal and tumor tissue.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="S4"><title>Conclusion</title>
<p id="P4">Our study identified two independent association signals at 4q24 in relation to breast cancer risk and suggested that observed association in this locus may be mediated through the regulation of <italic>TET2</italic>
.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="S5"><title>Impact</title>
<p id="P5">Fine-mapping study with large sample size warranted for identification of independent loci for breast cancer risk.</p>
