New mutations have been found in the BRCA1 gene. The mutations are located at nucleotide numbers 421-2, 815, 903, 926, 1506, 2034, 2428, 3888, 3904, 4164, 4643, 5053, 5150, 5210, or 5396+40 of the gene sequence of BRCA1. A process for identifying a sequence variation in a BRCA1 polynucleotide sequence is disclosed. The identification process includes allele specific sequence-based assays of known sequence variations. The methods can be used for efficient, and accurate detection of a mutation in a test BRCA1 gene sample.

Cancer susceptibility mutations of BRCA1

New mutations have been found in the BRCA2 gene. The mutations are located at nucleotide numbers 2192, 3772, 5193, 5374, 6495 or 6909 of the published nucleotide sequence of BRCA2 gene. A process for identifying a sequence variation in a BRCA2 polynucleotide sequence is disclosed. The identification process includes allele specific sequence-based assays of known sequence variations. The methods can be used for efficient, and accurate detection of a mutation in a test BRCA2 gene sample.
