Definition Mutations in the breast cancer genes BRCA1 and BRCA2 cause elevated risks to breast cancer and ovarian cancer. BRCA1 maps to chromosome 17 (band q21); BRCA2 maps to chromosome 13 (band q12). At the genetic level there are interesting analogies between the two genes, even though...
Loss-of-function variants in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 susceptibility genes predispose carriers to breast and/or ovarian cancer. The use of germline testing panels containing these genes has grown dramatically, but the interpretation of the results has been co
