The specific activity of thirteen genetic variants of the protease inhibitor alpha 1-antitrypsin (alpha 1AT) has been determined. Elastase inhibitor activity was assayed protein substrates (elastin and gelatin) and the synthetic substrate N-tert-butoxy-carbonyl-L-alanine p-nitrophenyl ester. The syn
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) or Lynch syndrome is caused by DNA variations in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes MSH2, MLH1, MSH6, and PMS2. Many of the mutations identified result in premature termination of translation and thus in loss-of-function of the encoded mutated prote
## Abstract The __CHEK2__β1100delC mutation is recurrent in the population and is a moderate risk factor for breast cancer. To identify additional __CHEK2__ mutations potentially contributing to breast cancer susceptibility, we sequenced 248 cases with earlyβonset disease; functionally characterize
