## Abstract We report the presence of a hemizygous inactivating germβline __RB1__ mutation (a recurrent g.78250CβT transition, resulting in a stop codon in exon 17) in peripheral blood DNA from a patient with hereditary bilateral retinoblastoma. Hemizygosity was established by sequencing that showe
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
