From: Genetic variations of the A13/A14 repeat located within the EGFR3′ untranslated region have no oncogenic effect in patients with colorectal cancer

Figure 2

Detection of EGFR 3′UTR polyA tract somatic mutations, using fluorescent multiplex PCR. The profile generated from malignant tissue (red) was superimposed on that obtained from distant non-malignant tissue (blue) after alignment of the control amplicons (peaks to the right corresponding to PCBD2). A: Pattern observed in a non mutated sample with A13/A14 genotype. B: Pattern observed in a mutated sample with A13/A14 genotype; notice in the tumor sample a shift of the peaks to the left corresponding to A11 and A12 repeats.
