Abstract Background Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is caused by mutations in serine/threonine kinase 11 (STK11) gene. The increased cancer risk has been connected to P53 pathway. Methods PJS probands with STK11 mutation were included in the function analysis. P53 activity elevated by STK11 mutants was...
