Abstract excerpt
Chromosome 17 is a frequent target during breast-cancer formation and progression. It has been shown to be affected by allele losses at multiple sites, as well as by DNA amplification. Our aim was to delineate a map of the genetic alterations on chromosome 17 in a given set of breast tumors. To this end we analyzed 151 pairs of tumor and cognate lymphocyte DNAs by Southern blotting with 5 RFLP or VNTR probes and...
