RESUMO
The structurally complex MYCL1 microsatellite marker is often used to determine microsatellite instability in colorectal cancers but the allelic variation of this marker has remained largely uncharacterized in both populations and in cancers. Our study describes the allelic distributions of MYCL1 in Finnish (n = 117) and Somali population samples (n = 61) of non-related individuals and compares this distribution with the instability pattern obtained from 61 gastrointestinal tumors.
