To investigate the underlying mechanisms of carcinogenesis, we have developed a technique to determine the frequency of genetic changes in prostatic carcinoma tissue. We have demonstrated that at a ratio of between 1:4 and 1:9 mutant-normal alleles, the signal from a mutant TP53 allele is not apparent after polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and further direct sequencing or single-strand conformation...
