A single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the promoter of the Mdm2 gene (Mdm2(SNP309-G)) results in an increased Mdm2 expression, partial attenuation of the p53 pathway and accelerated tumor development. Clinical case-control studies indicate the Mdm2(SNP309-)(G) allele associates with a significant increase in colorectal cancer (CRC) risk that is heightened in women, but the biological significance of this...
