PALB2 sequence variants in young South African breast cancer patients.

Familial cancer - 1 Jan 2009

Sluiter Michelle, Mew Samantha, van Rensburg Elizabeth J

Abstract excerpt

PALB2 (partner and localizer of BRCA2) is a recently identified breast cancer susceptibility gene, in which mutations confer doubling of breast cancer risk with moderate to low penetrance. Recent studies in various populations report that deleterious mutations in this gene account for approximately 1% of familial or early-onset breast cancer cases. This study aimed to determine the involvement of PALB2 mutations...
