Identification and functional analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism in the tandem repeat sequence of thymidylate synthase gene.

Cancer research - 15 Sept 2003

Kawakami Kazuyuki, Watanabe Go

Abstract excerpt

The variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) of thymidylate synthase (TS) gene, mainly 2 repeat (2R) and 3 repeat (3R), is one of the genetic variations that can potentially predict the effectiveness of 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy. In this study we identified an additional single nucleotide...
