Whole exome sequencing identifies MAP3K1, MSH2, and MLH1 as potential cancer‐predisposing genes in familial early‐onset colorectal cancer

Abstract The incidence of early‐onset colorectal cancer (CRC), which affects people under 50, is increasing for unknown reasons. Additionally, no underlying genetic cause is found in 20%–30% of patients suspected of having familial CRC syndrome. Whole exome sequencing (WES) has generated evidence fo...
