Abstract excerpt
We searched for P53 mutations in gastric carcinoma by analyzing tumor DNAs from 29 patients. We detected 13 different somatic mutations in 15 patients (52%) and a biallelic polymorphism in exon 6 (5 heterozygous subjects). The somatic mutations were mainly localized in the sequences corresponding to the highly conserved domains of the protein. Twelve samples showed a single base change: 11 missense and 1 nonsense...
