Abstract excerpt
Deletion of the short arm of chromosome 9 (9p), resulting in the loss of the p16INK4a/MTS1 gene, now called CDKN2, has been found to occur frequently in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, even in the absence of a microscopically visible deletion. In this study, we have used YAC probes encompassing the...
