a Scheme for metastasis susceptibility gene identification. b Circos plot representation of the result in (a). Red lines = polymorphic promoter, blue lines = intrachromosomal, and light blue lines = interchromosomal looping interactions. c Distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) of human ER+ breast cancer patients stratified by their expression of the 52-gene signature. Kaplan–Meier analysis with the log-rank test. d Nup210 mRNA expression in the mouse 4T1 cell line series. e Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV) track of the Nup210 promoter BACh region in 4T07 and 4T1 cells. f Polymorphisms within the 510 bp Nup210 promoter region. g 12 bp FVB/NJ promoter indel is located within a CTCF-binding site in mouse Nup210 promoter. h CTCF and H3K27Ac enrichment in human NUP210 promoter of MCF7 cells. i Luciferase assay of BALB/cJ and FVB/NJ Nup210 promoter regions.
