Abstract:
Exons 5-7 of the tumour suppressor gene p53 were investigated in genomic DNA of tumours of domestic cats. In one fibrosarcoma investigated we observed a mutation GAG-->AAG (glutamic acid-->lysine) in codon 180; in another there was a mutation CGG-->TGG (arginine-->tryptophane) in codon 248.
