Abstract excerpt
Mutations in genes associated with the DNA mismatch repair system were considered to play important roles in predisposition to cancer, since hMSH2 and hMLH1, human homologues of yeast MSH2 and MLH1 as well as bacterial mutS and mutL genes, were found to be involved in hereditary nonpolyposis colo...
