Abstract excerpt
The hRAD54 gene is related to a family of genes involved in DNA recombination and repair and encodes a protein with DNA helicase activity. hRAD54 has been mapped to 1p32, a region frequently involved in deletions in a variety of tumor types, including atypical and anaplastic meningiomas. To determine whether alterations of hRAD54 are a common event in meningeal tumors, by means of polymerase chain...
