Abstract excerpt

A familial Wilms' tumour susceptibility gene, known as FWT1, has recently been localised to chromosome 17q12-q21 by genetic linkage analysis. Four Wilms' tumours from a family showing strong evidence of linkage to FWT1 were examined for allele loss using polymorphic microsatellite markers on chromosome 17q. In three tumours no loss of heterozygosity was observed. In the remaining case, loss of heterozygosity was...
