Notes

rs180177102, also known as c.1592delT and p.Leu531Cysfs, is a mutation in the PALB2 gene on chromosome 16. The deletion variant, rs180177102(-), has been found in a 2015 meta-analysis to lead to a combined increased relative risk for breast cancer of 5.3 (CI: 3.0 to 9.4). A 2016 publication study involving 42,000 breast cancer cases concluded that rs180177102(-) carriers had an odds ratio of 3.44 (CI:1.4-8.5; p=7.1×10e-5) and a 40% (CI: 18-77%) chance of developing the disease by age 70. This mutation appears to be renamed i4000488 by 23andMe.
