BRCA 2 is localized to chromosome 13q12 - q13. Loss of heterozygosity of 13q is observed in 25% of sporadic breast tumors, which indicates that BRCA 2 might be a tumor suppressor gene. BRCA 2 confers only a low ovarian cancer risk. Reportedly, in MCF-10F (normal breast epithelial cell line) and MCF-7 (breast cancer cell line) cells the expression of BRCA 2 RNA lowers in G0 and early G1 phases then gets up-regulated at the G1 / S phase junction.
