Notes
rs746229647, also known as c.3847_3848delGT and p.Val1283Lysfs, and formerly also known as c.3846_3847delTG, represents a rare variant in the BRCA2 gene. The minor allele is pathogenic for breast cancer according to multiple ClinVar sources, and it is also considered a founder mutation in some populations, for example, Denmark. Note that the ClinVar accession sidebar/box to right (below) links to an outdated accession record for this mutation. The correct URL is http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/37859/.
