Abstract excerpt
Increased cancer risk associated with germ-line p53 mutation was linked to a deficit in the ability to maintain genomic stability. Accordingly, normal fibroblasts from cancer-prone individuals accumulate genomic aberrations with concomitant loss of wild-type p53 allele during in vitro culture. We tested whether such changes also occur in EBV-immortalized lymphoblastoid cells. Both normal and p53 germ-line mutant...
