20 genes (21 probe sets) whose expression correlated between both diagnostic leukemia cell and normal leukocytes and was associated with cis-SNP genotypes (adjusted p<0.05).

114 of these 20 genes (15 of 21 probe sets) retained a significant cis-SNP regulation (adjusted pValidation Set 2 used Affymetrix Exon Array? data2 and Illumina BeadChip array data3. Of the 20 genes present on the Exon Array and BeadChip array and in the discovery set, 8 and 9 retained significant cis-SNP associations respectively (adjusted p
