Abstract excerpt
Several studies indicate that the short arm of chromosome 17 is one of the most frequently altered regions in sporadic breast carcinomas (45-60%). In the present report the 17p13.3-ter locus in tumour DNA of breast cancer patients, along with their matching normal lymphocyte DNA, have been mapped with four markers (D17S5, D17S379, ABR and D17S34), spanning nearly 3 cM of the telomer. Sixty-five of 143...
