Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study is to explore the reliability of the high resolution melting (HRM) analysis for the identification of BRCA1/BRCA2 mutation carriers among the family members of index patient (IP) and for distinguishing the presence of two or more genetic variants within the same amplicon. DESIGN AND METHODS: We studied 27 different BRCA1/BRCA2 pathogenic mutations detected in 35 families with 194...
