Abstract excerpt
We carried out a mutational analysis of BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes in 103 individuals from a population in Western Central Spain and we identified nine new variants: two truncating mutations in BRCA2 [2604C>A (Y792X), 8873del4], three missense mutations in BRCA2 [677A>G (H150R), 958G>A (D224N) and 3398A>G (K1057R], and four silent mutations, two in BRCA1 [1115T>G (R332R) and IVS24+36 C>G], and two in BRCA2 [2583T>A...
