BACH1 Ser919Pro variant and breast cancer risk
2006
Background
BACH1 (BRCA1-associated C-terminal helicase 1; also known as BRCA1-interacting protein 1, BRIP1) is a helicase protein that interacts in vivo with BRCA1, the protein product of one of the major genes for hereditary predisposition to breast cancer. Previously, two BACH1 germ line missense mutations have been identified in early-onset breast cancer patients with and without family history of breast and ovarian cancer.
In this study, we aimed to evaluate whether there are BACH1 genetic variants that contribute to breast cancer risk in Finland.
