Abstract excerpt
Deletions of chromosome 13q14 are common in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and other cancers, demonstrating the importance of this region in tumorigenesis. We report the use of two single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based techniques to determine 13q loss of heterozygosity (LOH) status in 15 patients with CLL: (i) digital SNP (dSNP), where analysis of heterozygous SNPs detects allelic imbalances, and (ii) DNA...
