Yes, BRCA1 is considered a tumor suppressor gene, not an oncogene.
Yes, BRCA1 is a tumor suppressor gene.
The inheritance pattern of the BRCA1 gene is dominant.
Oncogene was first published as a journal in 1987. It covers research related to oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, and cancer cell biology.
BRCA1 mutation is a genetic alteration in the BRCA1 gene that increases the risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. Individuals with a BRCA1 mutation have an increased likelihood of developing these types of cancer compared to those without the mutation. Testing for BRCA1 mutations can help in assessing cancer risk and guiding management options.
The gene BRCA1 helps repair damaged DNA in cells, which can prevent the growth of abnormal cells that could lead to breast cancer. Mutations in the BRCA1 gene can increase the risk of developing breast cancer because the cells may not be able to repair DNA damage properly.

The inheritance pattern of the BRCA1 gene is dominant.
A proto-oncogene is normally converted to an oncogene by mutation of the gene that encodes the proto-oncogene. Often, this leads to de-regulation of the proto-oncogenes activity and typically abarrent signal transduction in the cell, which may lead to cellular transformation.

An oncogene is a gene, when mutated or expressed at high levels it helps turn a normal cell into a tumor cell.
The two genes considered responsible for the cause of cancer are the oncogene and the tumor suppressor gene.
Oncogene.
A proto-oncogene is a normal gene that helps regulate cell growth and division, while an oncogene is a mutated form of a proto-oncogene that promotes uncontrolled cell growth, leading to cancer. Proto-oncogenes can become oncogenes through mutations that cause them to be constantly activated or overexpressed.

BRCA1 and BRCA2 are genes that can mutate into cancer.
The gene BRCA1 helps repair damaged DNA in cells, which can prevent the growth of abnormal cells that could lead to breast cancer. Mutations in the BRCA1 gene can increase the risk of developing breast cancer because the cells may not be able to repair DNA damage properly.
