Abstract excerpt
We have previously identified the human homologue of the Drosophila patched gene and have described, in this gene, mutations that give rise to naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS). Here, we have analysed the effects of three splice site mutations within human PATCHED (PTCH) by the reverse transcription/polymerase chain reaction method in cultured patient lymphocyte cell lines. Two alterations, a point...
