Abstract excerpt
Here, we report the complete genomic sequence and the characterization of the 311-kb region of 18q21, a candidate tumor suppressor locus containing a region of homozygous deletion in a lung cancer cell line, Ma29. This region contained two known genes, SMAD4 and ME2 (mitochondrial malate oxydoreductase), and two novel genes, D29 (deleted in Ma29 HGMW-approved symbol ELAC1), encoding an evolutionarily conserved...
