Abstract excerpt
Molecular analyses for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at a gene locus are used to identify genomic imbalance in tumor tissue. A frequently utilized microsatellite marker for the Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) gene is denoted D5S346. However, when an individual has two identical forms of this microsatellite, then a second microsatellite, also near the APC gene, is needed. We present data on an APC microsatellite...
