Abstract excerpt
Given the importance of mismatch repairing genes in keeping the genetic stability in cells, any alterations in their structure or function could generate instability in the genome and predispose the development of oncogenic processes. hMSH2 is the principal gene involved in the post-replicating DNA mismatch repair system. In this study, exon 13 of the hMSH2 gene was analyzed in different neoplasias, leukemias and...
