Human chromosome 11 contains two different growth suppressor genes for embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma.
1 Mar 1992
Abstract excerpt
The identification of acquired homozygosity in human cancers implies locations of tumor suppressor genes without providing functional evidence. The localization of a defect in embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas to chromosomal region 11p15 provides one such example. In this report, we show that transfer of a normal human chromosome 11 into an embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma cell line elicited a dramatic loss of the...
