Abstract excerpt
Variation in gene coding sequence represents a significant factor in predisposition to disease, including cancer. Variants of some DNA repair genes (e.g. MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6) are known to predispose to cancer. We identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in five DNA repair genes in 142 healthy individuals using a DNA sequencing protocol optimized for the direct detection of single nucleotide...
