## Abstract Mutations in the __p53__ tumor suppressor gene are detected in approximately half of nonβmelanoma skin cancers. The type of baseβpair changes observed strongly suggests solar radiation as the causative mutagen. Mutations are distributed nonrandomly and form moderate hotspots. We studied
## Abstract Mutations in the __ras__ oncogene are detected with a high frequency in nonβmelanoma skin cancer. Approximately half of the squamousβcell carcinomas (SCC) and one third of the basalβcell carcinomas (BCC) carry mutations at the second position of Haβras codon 12 (GGC to GTC), whereas mut
