Abstract excerpt
Chromosome 11q13 is amplified in about 13% of primary breast cancers. CCND1, encoding the cell cycle regulatory gene cyclin D1, and EMS1, encoding a filamentous actin binding protein, are favoured candidate onocogenes, whereas INT-2 is an unexpressed gene at this locus. In this study we tested th...
