Abstract excerpt
Two known polymorphisms in the 5' enhancer region (ER) of the thymidylate synthase (TS) gene, a variable number of tandem repeats of a 28 bp sequence (2R/3R) and a further G>C single nucleotide substitution within the repeats, result in genotypes with 0-5 functional upstream stimulatory factor (USF) E-box consensus elements. However, the relationship between these polymorphisms, regulation of TS expression and...
