Abstract excerpt
Studies of allelic imbalance and suppression of tumourigenicity have consistently suggested that the short arm of chromosome three (3p) harbours tumour suppressor genes (TSGs) whose inactivation leads to the development of various types of neoplasia including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Previously, we defined a critical minimal region of 120kb at 3p21.3 that contains overlapping homozygous...
