Abstract excerpt
Inactivating point mutations and small deletions in the p53 tumor suppressor gene have been found in human liver and lung tumor--derived cell lines and tumors. However, little evidence has been reported concerning inactivation or mutation of the p53 gene in mouse primary tumors. To examine CD-1 mouse liver and lung tumors for mutations in the p53 gene, we first sequenced p53 introns 5-8 so that polymerase chain...
