Abstract excerpt
The tumor suppressor genes p53, retinoblastoma (RB), p16, and p15 encode proteins that regulate the cell cycle cooperatively by controlling the transition from G1 to S phase and may play an important role in cell growth and differentiation. To screen for abnormalities in these genes in cancer, we performed genetic analysis in six human pancreatic cancer and five hepatoma cell lines, by single-strand conformation...
