Correlation between ZBRK1/ZNF350 gene polymorphism and breast cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study is to explore the relationship between the ZBRK1/ZNF350 (Zinc finger and BRCA1-interacting protein with KRAB domain-1; also known as zinc-finger protein 350) gene polymorphism and early-onset breast cancer.

Methods

The ZBRK1/ZNF350 gene exon detection analysis was performed with the direct sequencing and Snapshot methods in 80 cases of breast cancer (aged ≤ 40 years old) and 240 healthy subjects (aged ≤ 40 years old).

Results

Totally 9 sequence variants were detected, including 5 missense mutations and 4 synonymous mutations, located at EXON3, EXON4 and EXON5, respectively. The rs4987241 and rs3764538 variants were published for the first time, while the remaining variants had been reported before. There were significant differences in the freque
