The human estradiol 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase II (17 beta-HSD II) gene has been assigned by somatic cell hybridization to chromosome 17q11-q21, near the region of assignment of the gene BRCA1, which is involved in hereditary breast-ovarian cancer.
These polymorphisms in the 17 beta-HSD II gene provide markers that can be used for the genetic mapping of this locus, and may be used to establish whether 17 beta-HSD II is a candidate gene for hereditary breast-ovarian cancer.

The recent identification of the BRCA1 gene in early-onset hereditary site-specific breast cancer and the HBOC syndrome has led to new challenges for the genetic counselor.
