Abstract excerpt
We are interested in the characterisation of previously undescribed contributions to the heritable component of human cancers. To this end, we applied whole-exome capture, followed by massively parallel sequence analysis to the germline DNA of two greater than third-degree affected relatives from four multiple-case, early-onset breast cancer families. Prior testing for variants in known breast cancer...
