RNA splicing evidence enables robust classification of BRCA1 exon 18 variants: Results from the ENIGMA consortium.

The Evidence-based Network for the Interpretation of Germline Mutant Alleles (ENIGMA) research consortium conducted a comprehensive study to characterize spliceogenic variants in BRCA1 exon 18, indicating the degree of splice perturbation required to impair BRCA1 function may depend on the nature of the resulting non-f...
