APC gene mutations play a role in the initiation step of colorectal carcinogenesis in both familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and non-FAP patients. Almost all of the APC mutations are nonsense or frameshift mutations, which truncate the APC protein and are thought to inactivate normal APC function

Recent studies have shown that the BRCA1 tumor suppressor gene plays a role in the development of both hereditary and sporadic ovarian cancer. Since several different mechanisms may give rise to tumor gene defects, a better understanding of these mechanisms may identify BRCA1 as an attractive therap
