Prognostic Value Estimation of BRIP1 in Breast Cancer by Exploiting Transcriptomics Data Through Bioinformatics Approaches
BRIP1 (Breast Cancer 1 Interacting Helicase 1) is a tumor suppressor gene that has vital function in preserving the genetic stability by repairing DNA damage though have significant associations with the onset of breast cancer (BC) if mutated or overexpressed. In this study, the prognostic value of...
