Abstract excerpt
Evaluation of the clinical significance of p53 gene mutations requires molecular analysis of primary tumors from large series of patients with long follow-up periods. In this study, we describe a sensitive, rapid, nonisotopic and inexpensive procedure for the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-single-stranded conformational polymorphism (SSCP) detection and subsequent sequencing of p53 mutations in formalin-fixed...
