Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: It has been shown that somatic missense mutations in codon 132 of the NADP+ dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) gene occur frequently in primary brain tumors including highly malignant glioblastoma (GBM). The aim of this study was to evaluate a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP)-based method for missense mutation detection and to estimate the prognostic value of...
