Shared inheritance reveals landscape of somatic and germline cancer risk in <i>TP53</i>
2026-04-11
Abstract excerpt
Pathogenic variants in TP53 , the key tumour-suppressor gene underlying Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), are among the best-established causes of inherited cancer predisposition. However, large-scale sequencing has revealed that many apparently pathogenic TP53 variants detected in blood are the result of somatic clonal expansions, complicating risk interpretation. Using blood-derived whole-exome data from 469,391 UK...
