Abstract excerpt
In order to evaluate the role of inherited variation in the estrogen receptor (ESR1) gene in human breast cancer, we determined intronic sequences flanking each ESRI exon; identified multiple SNPs and length polymorphisms in the ESR1 coding sequence, splice junctions and regulatory regions; and genotyped families at high risk of breast cancer and population-based breast cancer patients and controls. Of 10...
