Abstract excerpt
TP53 and BRCA2 are frequently mutated in cancer and polymorphisms of these genes may modify cancer risk. We used SSCP and DNA sequencing to assess and compare frequencies of R72P (TP53) and 5'UTR203G>A, N372H, and K1132K (BRCA2) polymorphisms in healthy Chinese subjects at varying risk for esopha...
