1. A method of diagnosing cancer in a human subject comprising obtaining a sample containing nucleic acid from the subject, and detecting in the sample, the presence of at least one mutation of SEQ ID NO:
- 1 present within the subject'"'"'s AQP5 gene, wherein the presence of at least one mutation of SEQ ID NO;
1 is detected by at least one method selected from the group consisting of dot blotting, RT-PCR, nucleic acid sequencing restriction enzyme analysis, northern blotting, southern blotting, RNase protection assay, in situ hybridizatiaon, SSCP (single strand conformational polymorphism) analysis, MSO hybridizatiaon (Mutant specific oligonucleotide-hybridization) assay, ARMS (amplification refractory mutation system) and DNA chip (microarray) analysis.

Abstract
The present invention relates to mutation genes of the AQP (aquaporin), a method for detecting cancer using mutations and expressions of the AQP and a DNA chip possessing oligonucleotides of mutated AQP base sequence. In case of the present method for detecting cancer and DNA chip using the AQP'"'"'s mutations and expressions, it is highly accurate, rapid and effective in cancer diagnosis.
