DNA mismatch repair is of considerable scientific and medical importance because of its essential role in maintaining genomic integrity, and its association with hereditary non-polyposis colon cancer (HNPCC). Germline mutations in five mismatch repair genes (MLH1, MSH2, PMS1, PMS2, and MSH6) have be
## Abstract We recently identified germline methylation of __KILLIN__, a novel p53‐regulated tumor suppressor proximal to __PTEN__, in >1/3 Cowden or Cowden syndrome‐like (CS/CSL) individuals who are __PTEN__ mutation negative. Individuals with germline __KILLIN__ methylation had increased risks of
Mutations associated with tumorigenesis may either arise somatically or can be inherited through the germline. We performed a comparison of somatic, germline, shared (found in both soma and germline) and somatic recurrent mutational spectra for 17 human tumor suppressor genes, which focused upon mis
The family of a male with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and a deletion within the dystrophin gene has been studied. Polymerase chain reaction analysis of ectopic mRNA from peripheral blood T+B lymphocytes and the use of (CA) n repeat polymorphisms in and around the deleted region showed the prob
