Inactivating Mutations in GT198 in Familial and Early-Onset Breast and Ovarian Cancers.

Genes & cancer ·doi:10.1177/1947601913486344

The human GT198 gene (gene symbol PSMC3IP) is located at chromosome 17q21, 470 kb proximal to BRCA1, a locus previously linked to breast and ovarian cancer predisposition. Its protein product (also known as TBPIP and Hop2) has been shown to…

Polymorphism in the IL18 gene and epithelial ovarian cancer in non-Hispanic white women.

Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology ·doi:10.1158/1055-9965.epi-08-0548

Over 22,000 cases of ovarian cancer were diagnosed in 2007 in the United States, but only a fraction of them can be attributed to mutations in highly penetrant genes such as BRCA1. To determine whether low-penetrance genetic variants contri…
