Allele Loss on Chromosome 1p36 in Epithelial Ovarian Cancers

TL;DR: These findings further delineate regions on chromosome 1p36 proposed to contain tumor suppressor gene(s) that may play a role in the development and/or progression of epithelial ovarian carcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel transcribed sequences within the BWS/WT2 region in 11p15.5 : Tissue-specific expression correlates with cancer type

TL;DR: Interestingly, the tissue-specific mRNA expression of these genes correlates with the tumor types linked to this region, and this work can be compiled into a transcript map, important in the elucidation of tumor suppressor activity on chromosome 11p15.5.
Journal ArticleDOI

Localization of the VHR Phosphatase Gene and Its Analysis as a Candidate for BRCA1

TL;DR: The VH1-related human protein (VHR) gene was localized to human chromosome 17q21 in a region thought to contain the BRCA1 locus, a locus that confers susceptibility to breast and ovarian cancer and was screened in individuals with familial breast cancer and in sporadic breast tumor and breast cancer cell lines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Growth and transformation suppressor genes for BHK Syrian hamster cells on human chromosomes 1 and 11.

TL;DR: It is concluded that genes that suppress BHK‐cell growth in general or in agar reside on human chromosomes 1 and 11, respectively.
