The genetic analysis of a founder Northern American population of European descent identifies<i>FANCI</i>as a candidate familial ovarian cancer risk gene
2020-05-08
Abstract excerpt
Some familial ovarian cancer (OC) could be due to rare risk alleles in genes that each account for a relatively small proportion of cases not due to BRCA1 and BRCA2 , major risk genes in the homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair pathway. We report a new candidate OC risk allele, FANCI c.1813C>T in a Fanconi anemia (FA) gene that plays a role upstream of the HR DNA repair pathway. This variant was identified by...
