Obsolete resource : true;
NCIt synonyms : BRCA3; BRCAX; Breast Cancer 3 wt Allele;
NCIt definition : Human BRCA3 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 13q21 and the length of
the gene is currently unknown. This allele, which encodes breast cancer 3 protein,
plays a role in tumor suppression.;
NCIt note : This tumor suppressor activity of this gene has been studied most closely in breast
cancers. Further, somatic deletions in hereditary breast cancers implicate 13q21 as
a putative novel breast cancer susceptibility locus.; See 'BRCA3 Gene(C20779)' EntrezGene reports Gene type unknown and HGNC notes it is
a phenotype only locus.;
