| Number of Gln | A* | B* | C* | D* |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The p values for two sided Fisher’s exact test for distribution of allele size ⩾28 and ⩽27 in groups A and B, A and C, A and D, B and C, B and D, and C and D are 0.06, 0.70, 1.00, 0.006, 0.005, and 0.55, respectively. | ||||
| *Group A, breast tumour cell lines; B, primary breast tumours; C, blood DNA from patients carrying mutations in BRCA1/BRCA2 genes; D, general population. | ||||
| ⩾28 | 10 | 10 | 12 | 28 |
| ⩽27 | 6 | 22 | 4 | 15 |
