We have analyzed the 27 exons and the promoter region of the RBI gene in familial or sporadic bilateral retinoblastoma by using single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis. For improvement over previous studies, a new set of primers has been designed, which allow for amplification of the coding
## Abstract In this report the proportion of consecutive and familial breast cancer cases harboring the 657del5 of exon 6 of the NBS1 gene was determined to assess whether it is associated with the increased risk of breast cancer development. The study consisted of 3 groups of patients: a series of
