We used WES to identify pathogenic variants in patients with BC; 56 variants in 37 genes were identified in 41 patients, including ACVR1B, APC, AR, ARFGEF1, ATM, ATR, BARD1, BLM, BRCA1, BRCA2, CASP8, CASR, CHD8, CTNNB1, ESR1, FAN1, FGFR2, HMMR, KLLN, LZTR1, MCPH1, MLH1, MSH2, MSH3, MSH6, NF1, PMS2, PRKN, RAD54L, RB1CC1, RECQL, SLC22A18, SLX4, SPTBN1, TP53, WRN, and XRCC3 (Table 2, Figure 1). Here, BLM is linked to breast cancer.
