  • Title: [p53 gene mutation determined by single-strand conformational polymorphism and DNA sequencing analysis in pleomorphic adenoma of salivary gland].
    Author: Wang J, Dong F, Yong P.
    Journal: Zhonghua Kou Qiang Yi Xue Za Zhi; 1999 Sep; 34(5):298-300. PubMed ID: 11776898.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To detect p53 exon 6 mutation pattern in pleomorphic adenoma of salivary gland. METHODS: Single-strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) and DNA sequecing were used. RESULTS: SSCP analysis showed that 6 of 11 cases with SSCP positive were exon 6 abnormal. Comparison of the SSCP results with DNA sequecing, 4 cases with p53 exon 6 mutations were SSCP positive. Mutation pattern included base substitution (point mutation, G-->T, T-->G) and frame-shift mutation (base insertion and base loss). CONCLUSION: Poly-codon and poly-pattern mutations appeared in p53 exon 6. PCR-SSCP was a convenient method to detecte gene mutation.
