Abstract excerpt
Defects in DNA repair genes have been extensively associated with cancer susceptibility. Germline pathogenic variants (GPV) in genes involved in homologous recombination repair pathways predispose to cancers arising mainly in the breast and ovary, but also other tissues. The RAD51 paralogs RAD51C and RAD51D were included in this group 10 years ago when germline variants were associated with non-BRCA1/2 familial...
