Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based testing is a cost-effective method for identifying pathogenic germline genetic variations in cancer-predisposing genes in hereditary breast cancer. However, many of the variants detected through NGS are classified as variants of uncertain significance (VUS), where the impact of the variants on protein function remains unclear. Bioinformatics analysis using...
