Characterization of Single Nucleotide Variants of OPN3 Gene in Melanocytic Nevi and Melanoma
In this study, we examined single nucleotide variants (SNVs) of the OPN3 gene in malignant melanoma and melanocytic nevi. A total of 20 variants of SNVs were detected. Of these variants, five nonsynonymous mutations of OPN3 were identified, including c.T152C, c.T401C, c.G547A, c.G768A, and c.G992A....
