Brca2 gene
This is a normal gene that makes a protein for basic cell functions. It was the second gene discovered that is often mutated in people at extra risk for breast cancer, and depending on the mutation these people often have increased risk of ovarian cancer as well. A person with a family history may be tested for the mutation and make decisions to protect health.
