Relation of p53 Codon 72 Polymorphism with Breast Cancer Risk in DPR Korea Women
Abstract: Background: The p53 codon 72 polymorphism (rs1042522) is a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in exon 4 of p53 gene, resulting in the expression of either arginine (Arg), which encodes CGC, or proline (Pro), which encodes CCC. The p53 codon 72 polymorphism have been implicated as a risk factor for various cancers including breast cancer. We have investigated the association of the Arg/Pro polymorphism at codon 72 of p53 gene with breast …
