<front><div type="abstract" xml:lang="en"><p id="P1">We report the results of an association study of melanoma based on the genome-wide imputation of the genotypes of 1,353 cases and 3,566 controls of European origin conducted by the GenoMEL consortium. This revealed a novel association between several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in intron 8 of the <italic>FTO</italic>
gene, including rs16953002, which replicated using 12,313 cases and 55,667 controls of European ancestry from Europe, the USA and Australia (combined p=3.6×10<sup>−12</sup>
, per-allele OR for A=1.16). As well as identifying a novel melanoma susceptibility locus, this is the first study to identify and replicate an association with SNPs in <italic>FTO</italic>
not related to body mass index (BMI). These SNPs are not in intron 1 (the BMI-related region) and show no association with BMI. This suggests <italic>FTO’</italic>
s function may be broader than the existing paradigm that <italic>FTO</italic>
variants influence multiple traits only through their associations with BMI and obesity.</p>

<abstract><p id="P1">We report the results of an association study of melanoma based on the genome-wide imputation of the genotypes of 1,353 cases and 3,566 controls of European origin conducted by the GenoMEL consortium. This revealed a novel association between several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in intron 8 of the <italic>FTO</italic>
gene, including rs16953002, which replicated using 12,313 cases and 55,667 controls of European ancestry from Europe, the USA and Australia (combined p=3.6×10<sup>−12</sup>
, per-allele OR for A=1.16). As well as identifying a novel melanoma susceptibility locus, this is the first study to identify and replicate an association with SNPs in <italic>FTO</italic>
not related to body mass index (BMI). These SNPs are not in intron 1 (the BMI-related region) and show no association with BMI. This suggests <italic>FTO’</italic>
s function may be broader than the existing paradigm that <italic>FTO</italic>
variants influence multiple traits only through their associations with BMI and obesity.</p>
