Abstract excerpt
How BRCA1 germline mutations predispose to cancer remains poorly understood. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) represent an emerging model to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying malignant transformation in primary cells from individuals who are carriers of deleterious mutations in the BRCA1 gene. Here we report the generation and characterization of iPSC lines from a female donor harboring a...
