Exome sequencing of familial high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma reveals heterogeneity for rare candidate susceptibility genes

Around half of the heritability underpinning familial high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma remains unidentified. Here, the authors show that extremely rare protein encoding loss-of-function variants, with a high degree of genetic heterogeneity, may account for some of this missing heritability.
