Comparative genomic hybridization, loss of heterozygosity, and DNA sequence analysis of single cells
13 Apr 1999
Abstract excerpt
A PCR strategy is described for global amplification of DNA from a single eukaryotic cell that enables the comprehensive analysis of the whole genome. By comparative genomic hybridization, not only gross DNA copy number variations, such as monosomic X and trisomic 21 in single male cells and cells from Down's syndrome patients, respectively, but multiple deletions and amplifications characteristic for human tumor...
