Truncating mutations in the Fanconi anemia J gene BRIP1 are low-penetrance breast cancer susceptibility alleles

We identified constitutional truncating mutations of the BRCA1-interacting helicase BRIP1 in 9/1,212 individuals with breast cancer from BRCA1 / BRCA2 mutation–negative families but in only 2/2,081 controls ( P = 0.0030), and we estimate that BRIP1 mutations confer a relative risk of breast cancer o...
