Abstract excerpt
Loss of heterozygosity at 10q26 was mapped using microsatellite markers in 20 osteosarcomas. A four-megabase region centered on marker D10S587 was affected by allelic loss in 60 percent of osteosarcomas. The most frequently lost marker was D10S1723. Around 15 known genes are found in this region. The gene immediately adjacent to D10S1723 encodes BUB3, an element of the spindle assembly mitotic checkpoint. Loss of...
