Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the human homologue of the Drosophila patched gene (PTCH) are responsible for the hereditary disorder called nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS). PTCH has a CGG triplet repeat located 4 bp upstream of the first methionine codon. Here we report a novel polymorphism involving...
