Expanding the mutational spectrum in Johanson-Blizzard syndrome: identification of whole exon deletions and duplications in the UBR1 gene by multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification analysis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The birth year-dependent onset of breast cancer (BC) in BRCA1/2 mutation carriers suggests a risk-modifying role for reproductive and life style factors. We therefore examined possible associations between these factors and age at diagnosis. METHODS:Cox regression analysis and log-Rank testing were used to ...
