Abstract excerpt
Maintenance of genomic stability depends on the appropriate cellular responses to DNA damage and the integrity of the DNA repair systems. We analyzed stomach tumors with microsatellite instability (MSI) for frameshift mutations in several potential targets of the mutator phenotype involved in DNA damage-response pathways, such as the ataxia telangiectasia mutated protein-related protein (ATR)-CHK1-Cdc25c pathway,...
