## Abstract Tazarotene‐induced gene 1 (__TIG1__) and Tazarotene‐induced gene 3 (__TIG3__) are retinoid acid (RA) target genes as well as candidate tumor suppressor genes in human cancers. In our study, we have investigated the expression of __TIG1__ and __TIG3__ in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). L

## Abstract __ZAC__ is a paternally expressed, imprinted gene located on chromosome 6q24, within a region known to harbor a tumor suppressor gene for several types of neoplasia, including human ovarian cancer (HOC). We have failed to identify genetic mutations in the __ZAC__ gene in tumor material.
The gene responsible for multiple endocrine neoplasia type I (MEN-l) syndrome has been mapped to chromosome l lq13. It appears to function as a tumoursuppressor gene analogous to that for retinoblastoma and allelic losses involving the wild-type of the MEN-1 allele have been found in parathyroid and
We have developed a fluorescence-based single-strand conformation polymorphism analytis to detect Haelll-sensitive polymorphic sites in intron I of the 7/53 gene. It is important t o treat the PCR products with Klenow fragment t o remove a 3'-protruding nucleotide from the amplified DNA fragments ad
