BRCA1 / BRCA2
Breast cancer genes 1 and 2
BRCA1 / BRCA2 in one lineInherited variants raise risk of breast and ovarian cancer
A full entry for BRCA1 / BRCA2 is on its way. For now, here is the one-line definition above and the genes it connects to below.
The honest caveat. Each entry describes a research-backed tendency, not a diagnosis. Carrying a variant tells you how your body is likely to lean, it does not label you, and nothing here is a substitute for a doctor where a medical question is involved.
