Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a primer, method, kit and application for enriching BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene regions by multiplex PCR. Background technique
[0002] BRCA1 and BRCA2 are important tumor suppressor genes involved in the process of chromosome damage repair. Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 may result in the reduction or loss of gene function, thereby increasing the risk of cell cancer. Existing data show that the germline mutations of these two genes are the most important factors causing hereditary breast and ovarian cancers, and mutation carriers have a life-time chance of developing breast cancer as high as 87% and ovarian cancer as high as 44% . Therefore, detection of BRCA1 / 2 gene mutations in high-risk groups has important guiding significance for cancer prevention, discovery and treatment.
[0003] Most of the mutations found in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are single base mutations or deletions and insertions of...
