Abstract excerpt
Loss of heterozygosity (LOH, allele loss) occurs frequently on the long arm of chromosome 11 in breast cancer. Seventy-one paired tumour/normal DNA samples from breast cancer patients under 50 years old were studied for allele loss at four microsatellite loci on 11q: D11S29 (11q23.3), NCAM (11q22-q23), D11S968 (11qtel), and D11S1313 (11qcen). The maximum frequency of LOH (approximately 35 per cent) was found at...
