Low frequency of recurrent BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in Spain.

Human mutation - 1 Mar 2002

Llort Gemma, Muñoz Carmen Yagüe, Tuser Mercè Peris, Guillermo Ignacio Blanco, Lluch José Ramón Germà, Bale Allen E, Franco Mayra Alvarez

Abstract excerpt

BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations underlie a substantial proportion of all hereditary breast cancer. The mutational spectrum in these genes is very broad, with hundreds of different BRCA mutations reported worldwide. However, high frequency founder mutations make up a substantial fraction of all mutation...
