Many diseases are caused by genetic mutations. Over 4000 diseases are linked to altered genes, including heart disease, cancer, autoimmune disorders, and diabetes. Specific mutations are associated with certain cancers, such as mutations in the RB1 and BRCA1 genes which can lead to retinoblastoma and breast cancer respectively. Large-scale projects like the Cancer Genome Atlas and ENCODE project aim to catalogue all mutations in cancers and across the human genome. Immunogenetics research examines the genetic links to immune-related disorders. The HapMap and 1000 Genomes projects studied genetic variants and helped map human genetic diversity.
