  • Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) resulting from mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 is the most common form of both hereditary breast and ovarian cancers and occurs in all ethnic and racial populations. The overall prevalence of BRCA1/2 mutations is estimated to be from 1:400 to 1:800 [Ford et al 1994, Claus et al 1996, Whittemore et al 1997], but varies depending on ethnicity. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK1247/

Description

Healey et al. (2000) described a polymorphism of the BRCA2 gene, asn372 to his (N372H), located in exon 10 and associated not only with an increased risk of breast cancer (612555) but also with an effect on prenatal viability with increased fitness of males and decreased fitness of females. The rarer allele (372H) had a frequency of 0.221 in Finnish, 0.285 in German, and a frequency intermediate between these 2 in British populations.

Using a mathematical model to analyze the BRCA2 N372H polymorphism data reported by Healey et al. (2000) as well as data from 8 other populations, Teare et al. (2004) found significant evidence consistent with a heterozygote advantage in females, but no evidence of genotype-specific selection in males.
