Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 confer a highly increased risk of cancers, mainly of the breast and ovary. Most variants are point mutations or small insertions/deletions detectable by Sanger sequencing. Large genomic rearrangements, including deletions/duplications of multiple exons, are not routinely detectable by Sanger sequencing, but can be reliably identified by Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe...
Several “moderate-risk breast cancer susceptibility genes” have been conclusively identified. Pathogenic mutations in these genes are thought to cause a two to fivefold increased risk of breast cancer. In light of the current development and use of multigene panel testing, the authors wanted to systematically obtain robust estimates of the cancer risk associated with loss-of-function mutations within...
