Abstract excerpt
Loss of heterozygosity of several specific genomic regions is frequently observed in neuroblastoma tumors and cell lines, but homozygous deletion (HD) is rare, and no neuroblastoma tumor suppressor gene (TSG) has yet been identified. We performed a systematic search for HD, indicative of a disrupted TSG, in a panel of 46 neuroblastoma cell lines. An initial search focused on a well-characterized consensus region...
