Abstract excerpt
p53 is one of the most frequently mutated genes in mammary carcinomas (MCs). To detect tumor suppressor genes cooperating with a hetero-deficient p53 gene in mammary carcinogenesis, we first examined allelotypes in MCs from (BALB/cHeA x MSM/Ms) F(1)- p53(+/-) and (BALB/cHeA x 129/SvEv) F(1)- p53(+/-) female mice, and then surveyed down-regulated genes in the allelic loss regions. Genome-wide screening at 42 loci...
