Notes

rs28897756, also known as 9345G>A, c.9117G>A, p.Pro3039= and P3039P is a SNP in the breast cancer 2 BRCA2 gene. The rare rs28897756(A) allele has been linked to increased risk for breast cancer in some Dutch families.. It is considered a causal mutation for breast cancer by UMD and is denoted pathogenic in ClinVar. This variant meets the criteria published in 2013 by the ACMG regarding incidental findings in exome or genome sequencing, as a variant that they do recommend informing a patient about. Another name used by 23andMe for this SNP is i5010626.
