In women, heritable breast cancers have been linked mutations in the breast cancer susceptibility gene BRCA2 and it contains eight BRC repeats in exon 11 that bind to RAD51. In this study, we investigated the sequence variations of BRC1-BRC8 and C-terminus of canine BRCA2 gene. From a total of 64 canine patients with mammary tumors, 31 mammary tumors with benign and malign carcinomas and the 3 normal mammary glands were used for the study. In this study, 19 SNPs of exon 11 of BRCA2 in canine mammary tumors were detected for the first time. The c.2383A>C (T1425P) SNP was found to be the most probable disease-associated nsSNP. Our findings suggest that T1425P variation in BRC3 to be the most probable disease-associated nsSNP and may affect RAD51 binding strength.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessVeterinary sciencesBRCA2CMTDogRAD51SNPsProteinsSequenceRepeatsAnimalsDog diseasesDogsFemaleGenes, BRCA2Mammary neoplasms, animalPolymerase chain reactionPolymorphism, single nucleotideRad51 recombinaseArticle0004146814000312-s2.0-850110325991479148615428133886Veterinary SciencesBRCA1 Protein; Homologous Recombination; Breast NeoplasmsRad51 proteinAnimalDogDog diseaseExperimental mammary neoplasmFemaleGeneticsPolymerase chain reactionSingle nucleotide polymorphismTumor suppressor geneVeterinary
