Molecular analysis of alleles segregation at RFLPs within RB-1 gene in four families with hereditary retinoblastoma.

Abstract excerpt

Four families with suspected hereditary retinoblastoma in proband and one other family member were examined by genetic segregation analysis of the RB-1 gene loci with specific RFLPs of chromosome 13. Two families, TA-6 and partially CK-46, were informative using this method. In TA-6 family healthy sister (TA-6/10) of the proband was shown not to be a carrier of the mutant RB-1 gene. These results show that the...
