Loss of heterozygosity at the TP53 locus occurs frequently in many types of cancer and requires polymorphic markers for detection. Several polymorphisms at the TP53 locus have been described previously, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR)based assays have been developed to detect these polymorphisms
## Abstract The __TP53__ tumor suppressor gene regulates a number of genes that are involved in cellβcycle inhibition, apoptosis, and maintaining genetic stability. Recently, two genes that have a role in immunosurveillance were identified as downstream targets of TP53. These genes, __TAP1__ and __
