## Abstract Breast cancer occurs rarely in men and risk factors for the disease include germline mutations of the __BRCA2__ gene. High frequency of allelic loss at the __BRCA2__ locus has been reported in sporadic breast tumors, but somatic mutations of __BRCA2__ are very rare. Here we report the f
Analysis of 426 alleles of the human Ha-rasl locus in DNA samples of cancer patients and controls reveals no obvious association between specific restriction fragments and a genetic predisposition to malignancy. However, differences in the allele distribution in leukocyte and tumour DNAs of cancer p
