Published in 2019 at "Frontiers in Genetics"

DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2019.00503

Abstract: A relevant fraction of BRCA2 variants is associated with splicing alterations and with an increased risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). In this work, we have carried out a thorough study of variants… read more here.
