Abstract excerpt
Previously, we had observed that more than 80% of clear cell renal carcinomas (RCCs) exhibited loss of heterozygosity (LOH) between the microsatellite markers D3S1285 (in 3p14.1) and D3S1295 (in 3p21.1), a region which includes the protein tyrosine phosphatase gamma locus (PTPRG locus, PTP gamma gene) and the 3p14.2 break of the familial RCC-associated translocation, t(3;8)(p14.2;q24), which has been hypothesized...
