Abstract excerpt
We previously demonstrated that constitutional BUB1B mutations cause mosaic variegated aneuploidy, a condition characterized by constitutional aneuploidies and childhood cancer predisposition. To further investigate the role of BUB1B in cancer predisposition we performed comparative genomic hybridization analysis in an embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma from an MVA case with biallelic BUB1B mutations, revealing...
