  /TX  In some populations with a relatively high frequency of a particular 
    mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2, genetic testing may be more straightforward 
    than in the general human population. The best-studied case is the 
    Ashkenazi Jewish population. A recent study at Baylor College of Medicine 
    (Houston, Texas)1 (1. Roa BR, et al. Nature Genetics. 1996;14:185-190.) 
    showed that, among a large population (approximately 3,000 individuals) 
    of Ashkenazi origin, 1.09% carried the BRCA1 185delAG mutation and 1.52% 
    carried the BRCA2 6174delT mutation.2 (2. The nomenclature for these 
    mutations is as follows: 185delAG indicates a two base-pair deletion (of 
    AG) at nucleotide 185 in BRCA1; 6174delT is a deletion of a T at 
    nucleotide number 6174 in BRCA2.) No one was found to carry both 
    mutations. These two mutations are by far the most frequent mutation 
    alleles predisposing to heritable breast cancer among the Ashkenazi 
    population. The study found that the BRCA1 185delAG mutation accounts for 
    approximately 19% of breast cancer cases diagnosed before age 50 in 
    Ashkenazi women; this figure agrees with results of two other studies 
    (16% and 20%, respectively). 
                               (...) 
     
    The finding of a high frequency of BRCA1 185delAG in the Ashkenazi Jewish 
    population has prompted another company (in addition to OncorMed and 
    Myriad) to offer tests for that particular mutation to Ashkenazi women 
    from high-risk families. In April 1996, Genetics and IVF Institute 
    (Fairfax, Virginia) announced the availability of such a test. (Since 
    then, offerings have been broadened to include three other mutations 
    found in relatively high frequency in the same population.)
