## Abstract Germline mutations in the __CDKN2A__ tumor suppressor gene located on 9p21 have been linked to development of melanomas in some families. A germline 3‐bp insertion in exon 2 of __CDKN2A__, leading to an extra arginine at codon 113 (113insR), has been identified in 17 Swedish melanoma fa
Due to patterns of migration, selection, and population expansion, founder effects are common among humans. In Southern Brazil, a recurrent TP53 mutation, p.R337H, is detected in families with cancer predisposition. We have used whole locus resequencing and high-density single nucleotide polymorphis
