متن کاملGene assembling: a new approach in molecular diagnosis of hereditary breast cancer
Abstract Background: Many disease susceptibility genes are large and consist of many exons in which point mutations are scattered throughout. Scanning each exon individually represents a tedious task which can be time consuming and expensive. There has been increasing demand for rapid and accurate methods for full scanning of unknown point mutations in large multi-exon genes. Gene Assembling i...

متن کاملBRIEF COMMUNICATION Hereditary Retinoblastoma and Risk of Lung Cancer
Patients who have survived hereditary retinoblastoma are at increased risk of dying of a sarcoma, a melanoma, or a brain tumor. The increased risk has been attributed to germline mutations in the retinoblastoma-1 (RB1) gene, which encodes the cell cycle regulatory protein pRb (1). However, the extent to which patients with hereditary retinoblastoma are at increased risk of dying of common epith...
