Absence of p53 mutations in childhood central nervous system primitive neuroectodermal tumors.

Abstract excerpt

The primitive neuroectodermal tumor of the central nervous system is one of a number of tumors in which deletions on chromosome 17p have been identified. The tumor suppressor gene, p53, is located in the region of the deletion. To determine if the p53 gene is involved in the development of primitive neuroectodermal tumors, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) blot analysis, ribonucleic acid blot analysis, and p53...
