Decades of research have identified multiple genetic variants associated with breast cancer etiology. The presence of a database comprising breast cancer associated factors enables rapid translation into clinical diagnostics. However, to the best of our knowledge, currently there is no database that archives known breast cancer genes and variants. Thus, we set out to build a dynamic repository of curated breast cancer genes (CBCG).

CBCG is an easy to use database comprising manually curated breast cancer genes and variants. We believe that this database will expedite clinical diagnostics and support the ongoing efforts in managing breast cancer etiology. Moreover, the database will serve as an essential repository when designing new breast cancer multigene panels.

Helpful information for navigating this database:

Gene List – Contains the total number of breast cancer genes and variants curated for this database

Causal Genes – Contains a list of genes that are causal for breast cancer predisposition in monogenic fashion

Figures – Contains the figures depicted in the manuscript

Submit New Genes – New studies can be submitted here to ensure the presence of updated gene lists for diagnostic and research purposes
