Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the p53 gene were analyzed in 40 gliomas using the single strand conformation polymorphism assay together with restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis to assess loss of heterozygosity for 17p alleles in the same tumors. Mutations occurred in 40% of the gliomas and were foun...
