Abstract

See full text

This disclosure describes APOBEC3B as a biomarker for certain cancers such as, for example, breast cancer. This disclosure therefore describes methods for detecting APOBEC3B in a biological sample. The methods generally include measuring expression of APOBEC3B in a biological sample obtained from a patient and identifying the patient as having or at risk for having cancer if the measured expression of APOBEC3B is greater than a predetermined reference level of expression. This disclosure also describes isolated polynucleotides that may be used as reagents in methods for detecting and/or measuring APOBEC3B expression.
