Large-scale Transcriptome Analyses Reveal New Genetic Marker Candidates of Head, Neck, and Thyroid Cancer
1 Mar 2005
Abstract excerpt
A detailed genome mapping analysis of 213,636 expressed sequence tags (EST) derived from nontumor and tumor tissues of the oral cavity, larynx, pharynx, and thyroid was done. Transcripts matching known human genes were identified; potential new splice variants were flagged and subjected to manual curation, pointing to 788 putatively new alternative splicing isoforms, the majority (75%) being insertion events. A...
