Germline loss-of-function variants in the base-excision repair gene <i>MBD4</i> cause a Mendelian recessive syndrome of adenomatous colorectal polyposis and acute myeloid leukaemia

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Inherited defects in base-excision repair (BER) predispose to adenomatous polyposis and colorectal cancer (CRC), yet our understanding of this important DNA repair pathway remains incomplete. By combining detailed clinical, histological and molecular profiling, we reveal biallelic germline loss-of-function (LOF) variants in the BER gene MBD4 to predispose to adenomatous polyposis and –uniquely...
