Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal region 11q22-q23 is a frequent target for deletion during the development of many solid tumour types, including breast, ovary, cervix, stomach, bladder carcinomas and melanoma. One of the most commonly deleted subregions contains the SDHD gene, which encodes the small subunit of cytochrome b (cybS) in mitochondrial complex II (succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase). Germline mutations in SDHD cause...
