    Effect:
    The PALB2 c.3113G > A mutation appears to be associated with substantial risks of breast cancer that are of clinical relevance.
    Reference:
    Title:
    A PALB2 mutation associated with high risk of breast cancer.
    Species studied:
    Human
    Abstract:
    As a group, women who carry germline mutations in partner and localizer of breast cancer 2 susceptibility protein (PALB2) are at increased risk of breast cancer. Little is known about by how much or whether risk differs by mutation or family history, owing to the paucity of studies of cases unselected for family history.
