hello,
I have been doing a lot of online research on breast cancer, and specifically on the BRCA1 gene, and i was wondering if anyone could help me answer a few questions regarding the BRCA1 gene

1. in the BRCA1 gene, which alleles specifically are inherited as dominant and why they behave as dominant?

2. why the mutant alleles of the BRCA1 gene behave as recessive in the cellular level?

thank you

N
