Homozygous deletions within human chromosome band 9p21 in melanoma.
1 Nov 1992
Abstract excerpt
Genetic studies have implicated the early involvement of a gene on chromosome arm 9p in the development of cutaneous melanoma. We have performed loss-of-heterozygosity studies to confirm these original findings and identify the most frequently rearranged or deleted region of 9p. Eight markers were analyzed, including (from 9pter to proximal 9q) D9S33, the beta-interferon (IFNB1) locus, the alpha-interferon (IFNA)...
