We studied a group of patients with or without individual or family history of melanoma for the occurrence of genetic alterations at microsatellite DNA sequences, usually referred to as microsatellite instability (MSI), and loss of heterozygosity (LOH). Microsatellite analysis of 3 markers located o
Germline mutations of the CDKN2A gene are found in melanoma-prone families and individuals with multiple sporadic melanomas. The encoded protein, p16(INK4A), comprises four ankyrin-type repeats, and the mutations, most of which are missense and occur throughout the entire coding region, can disrupt
