Abstract excerpt
A previous study in esophageal cancer (EC) patients from South Africa showed that 17% of tumors contained somatic mutations, including small deletions, insertions, and point mutations, resulting in frameshifts or amino acid changes in exons 5-8 of the TP53 gene. In the present study, polymerase c...
