Abstract excerpt
The clonal expansion of mutant cells is hypothesized to be an important first step in cancer formation. To understand the earliest stages of tumorigenesis, a method to identify and analyze clonal expansion is needed. We have previously described transgenic Fluorescent Yellow Direct Repeat (FYDR) mice in which cells that have undergone sequence rearrangements (via homologous recombination events) express a...
