Abstract excerpt

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cancer in humans. The majority of sporadic BCCs have allele loss on chromosome 9q22 implying that inactivation of a tumour suppressor in this region is an important step in BCC formation. The gene for nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS), an a...
