Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To further investigate the role of Type 2 neurofibromatosis (NF2) gene transcript mutations in the sporadically occurring counterparts of NF2-associated tumors. METHODS: Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction followed by agarose gel electrophoresis, single strand conformation...
