Abstract excerpt
Recent studies have suggested that the p53 oncoprotein might function normally as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in highly conserved regions of the p53 gene have been observed in numerous types of tumors and tumor cell lines. To detect in a more sensitive manner p53 gene mutations in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) we utilized the single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) technique of Orita et al., (1989)....
