Localisation of the breast-ovarian cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA1) on 17q12-21 to an interval of < or = 1 cM.

TL;DR: Analysis of three marker‐disease recombinants in families that contain breast and ovarian cancer strongly suggest a location for BRCAI telomeric to D17S702, a microsatellite polymorphism, and a third which suggests a location centromeric to EDH17B, the gene encoding estradiol‐17B dehydrogenase.
Journal ArticleDOI

AutoCSA, an algorithm for high throughput DNA sequence variant detection in cancer genomes

TL;DR: This work has developed a mutation detection algorithm, AutoCSA, specifically optimized for the high throughput screening of cancer samples, specifically designed for the large-scale DNA sequencing screens for somatic variants in human cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro differential sensitivity of melanomas to phenothiazines is based on the presence of codon 600 BRAF mutation

TL;DR: The studies provide evidence that BRAF mutation (codon 600) in melanoma as opposed to RAS mutation is predictive of an increase in sensitivity to phenothiazines as determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-sulfophenyl-2H-tetrazolium, inner salt assay (Wilcoxon P = 0.007).
