Description

In addition to the rare inactivating germline mutations associated with hereditary prostate cancer linked to HPC1 (601518), some relatively common RNASEL variants have been found in some families. Casey et al. (2002) found that one of these, arg462 to gln (R462Q), is associated with 3 times less enzymatic activity than the wildtype and is significantly associated with prostate cancer risk (P = 0.007). At least one copy of the mutated allele that causes this substitution was carried by nearly 60% of the men in their study. Men who were heterozygous with respect to the mutated allele had 50% greater risk of prostate cancer than noncarriers, and homozygotes had more than double the risk.

Urisman et al. (2006) reported an association of xenotropic murine leukemia-related virus (XMRV) with prostate tumors in patients homozygous for the R462Q variant; based on other reports refuting this association, the editors of PloS Pathogens retracted the article by Urisman et al. (2006).
