The BRCA1 protein is coded for at position 5677 on chromosome 17. Mutations in the BRCA1 gene are associated with elevated risk of breast cancer. BCPR is another gene on chromosome 17. BCPR codes for tp53, a tumor-suppressor protein. When functioning properly, tp53 reduces the chances of tumor growth for multiple cancers, including breast cancer. For simplicity, we will call healthy BRCA1 alleles 1+ and malfunctioning BRCA1 alleles 1-. We will call healthy BCPR alleles 2+ and malfunctioning BCPR alleles...

please answer all the question to get a like. Part III Dr. Hernandez sits down with Ann and her partner. The doctor is sorry to report that Ann has breast cancer; however, because it was caught early and responds to estrogen and progesterone, the prognosis is good. At this point it looks like the cancer is stage 1. However, as Ann is young, the doctor wants to perform a couple of tests. The first test is a genetic sequencing test...
