Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
gene SRD5A2, genotyping of 114 prostate cancer patients and 144 healthy control males for single-nucleotide polymorphisms, A49T and V89L, overview. Individuals with LL genotype show reduction in the progression to a higher tumor stage Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
A49T naturally occuring mutation, the mutation is associated with a higher pTNM stage and and elevated Gleason grade. The allelic frequencies of the A49T variant, with 33% controls and 45% prostate cancer cases, are the highest reported worldwide. The polymorphism influences the risk of developing prostate cancer Homo sapiens
V89L naturally occuring mutation. The polymorphism influences the risk of developing prostate cancer Homo sapiens
