Abstract excerpt
Hereditary Renal Cell Carcinomas (RCC) are caused by mutations in predisposing genes, the major ones including VHL, FLCN, FH and MET. However, many families with inherited RCC have no germline mutation in these genes. Using Whole Exome Sequencing on germline DNA from a family presenting three different histological renal tumors (an angiomyolipoma, a clear-cell RCC and an oncocytic papillary RCC), we identified a...
