BRCA1 is a tumour suppressor gene located on chromosome band 17q21. It is estimated that mutations in the BRCA1 gene account for approximately 45% of the breast cancer families and almost all of the breast/ovarian cancer families. We have used single strand conformation polymorphism analysis, direct

## Abstract Three mutations in __BRCA1__ (5382insC, C61G and 4153delA) are common in Poland and account for the majority of mutations identified to date in Polish breast and breast–ovarian cancer families.

The two major hereditary breast/ovarian cancer predisposition tumor suppressor genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2 that perform apparently generic cellular functions nonetheless cause tissue-specific syndromes in the human population when they are altered, or mutated in the germline.

Women harboring BRCA1 germline mutations carry an 85% lifetime risk of developing breast cancer and a 63% risk of ovarian cancer. In this first systematic study of familial breast and/or ovarian cancer in Germany we investigated 29 families for germline mutations in the BRCA1 gene. We identified mut
