In codon 72 of the p53 antioncogene there are two alleles, arginine and proline; the arg/arg genotype has recently been identified as a risk factor for developing of cervicouterine cancer (CuCa) associated to human papillomavirus (HVP) infection. The aim of this work was to determine in a sample of
A polymorphism at codon 72 in the p53 gen has been reported as a potential risk factor to cervical cancer (CC) because human papillomavirus (HPV) is more effective at degrading p53 Arg-72 than p53 Pro-72, making individuals homozygous for p53 Arg-72 seven times more likely to develop HPV-associated
