Abstract excerpt
Using colorectal cancer (CRC) as an example, we present the hypothesis that quantitative immunoassays for wild-type (full-length) proteins can be used to identify carriers of traits for hereditary diseases. In the case of hereditary CRC, this involves identifying individuals with germline mutatio...
