## Abstract We hypothesized that aberrant gene silencing by miRNA may affect mutant __BRCA__ penetrance. To test this notion, frequency of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; __n__ = 42) within predicted miRNA binding sites or miRNA precursors were determined and compared in 363 __BRCA1__ mutati
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Genes encoding enzymes involved in estrogen metabolism are held to be candidate genes for associations with breast disease. In these candidate genes, no critical combination of singleβnucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for assessing breast carcinoma risk has been reported to
