Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A gene is the RET proto-oncogene located on the long arm of chromosome 10, and many mutations within this gene have been reported. METHODS: Peripheral blood DNA was analyzed from 95 members of twelve families with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A and known mutations in codon 634 (of exon 11) of the RET proto-oncogene. This region was amplified by the...
