## Abstract Although carcinoma of the uterine endometrium is the most frequently diagnosed malignancy of the female reproductive tract, the molecular genetic features of this tumor have yet to be described in significant detail. Since mutations of the __p53__ tumor suppressor gene are the single mo
Mutations in the p53 gene are associated with a wide variety of human malignancies. Point mutation in one allele and loss of the remaining one generally lead to inactivation of p53 protein. A high frequency of allelic losses corresponding to the I7p 13.3 region that contained the p53 gene sequence
Mutations in the chromatin remodeling gene __ARID1A__ have recently been identified in the majority of ovarian clear cell carcinomas (OCCCs). To determine the prevalence of mutations in other tumor types, we evaluated 759 malignant neoplasms including those of the pancreas, breast, colon, stomach, l
