Abstract excerpt
We analyzed somatic mutations of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC), p53, and K-ras genes in gastroduodenal polyps and normal gastroduodenal mucosa from 21 familial adenomatous polyposis patients, using PCR-single-strand conformation polymorphism and direct sequencing methods. Seventy-five poly...
