Abstract excerpt
Twenty-six primary breast tumors were examined for mutations in the p53 tumor suppressor gene by an RNase protection assay and nucleotide sequence analysis of PCR-amplified p53 complementary DNAs. Each method detected p53 mutations in the same three tumors (12%). One tumor contained two mutations in the same allele. Single strand conformation polymorphism analysis of genomic DNA and complementary DNA proved more...
