Abstract excerpt
Chromosome 9p21 appears to harbor a tumor suppressor gene, as evidenced by deletions in this region in a variety of human primary tumors and cell lines. To map the deletion at 9p21 in bladder tumors, we analyzed DNA from 28 tumor and normal pairs at five microsatellite markers that flank the region occupied by the putative tumor suppressor genes p16 and p15. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at the markers human...
